DNA WEB DESK

Dried dates or chuaras are the hardened form of dates and have several essential minerals and vitamins like calcium, fiber, and vitamin C. 

Chuara contains natural sugars like fructose and glucose and is therefore also recommended for snacking in between meals.

Research suggests that dry dates can help lower blood sugar and unhealthy fat levels in the body, and also regulate them. 

The amount of unhealthy fats and cholesterol in dates is very minimal. This is why dried dates help lower bad cholesterol levels in the blood. 

Eating dry dates regularly helps boost liver functioning and promoting the natural detox of the system.

Dry dates contain vitamin B and choline, both of which help boost memory. 

Dry dates are  helpful in promoting scalp health and hair strength. 

Dates are a rich source of calcium and can help keep your teeth and bones stronger for a long time.
