Medjool dates have been cultivated for thousands of years for their sweet, rich flavour. Dried fruit, such as dates, contain more calories in a smaller volume than fresh fruit because a large amount of water has been removed. Eating just two dates, which average about 1 to 2 inches long, gives you 133 calories. Be mindful of your portion size because it’s easy to overeat these sweet fruits, which may lead to weight gain over time. However, they are a fat-free food, making them a good alternative to high-fat desserts when tryi g to limit your daily fat intake.

Dates contain small amounts of almost every essential mineral. The ones to note are potassium, manganese and copper. Your body relies on potassium to regulate fluid balance, heartbeat, blood pressure and nerve impulses. Copper is used for the synthesis of connective tissues and helps maintain proper brain and red blood cell function. Manganese plays a part in forming bones, blood clotting factors and sex hormones, regulating energy metabolism, calcium absorption and blood sugar levels and maintaining brain and nerve function. The vitamins present at the highest percentage of your daily needs are vitamin B-6, niacin and pantothenic acid. Eating two dates provides you with 6 percent of the daily value for B-6 and 4 percent of the daily values for pantothenic acid and niacin. These nutrients play a role in red blood cell production, energy metabolism, growth and development and skin health, the nervous system and the digestive system. Eating dates as part of a healthy, well-balanced diet helps you meet your daily requirements for these vitamins.

Choose skin products wisely - Try to avoid harsh products that further dehydrate your skin such as those that are soap and alcohol- based. Use a gentle cleanser and then apply a good-quality moisturiser (better oil-based than water-based) that will create a protective layer on the skin so that it retains more moisture. Eat for healthy skin - Choose foods that are rich in antioxidants or omega fatty acids such as fruit, avocado and oily fish. These types of food all help to keep skin healthy by prolonging retention of moisture and nutrients. They also assist your skin with excreting waste products more easily. Beat dry winter skin Hydrate! - Drink lots of water! During winter, we often reduce our water intake, but hydration is vital to the health of your skin. Keep a water bottle with you at all times to remind you to keep your intake up. Further hydrate your skin by moisturising at least a few times a day and after washing, especially if you have been exposed to severe weather conditions!
