In nutrition science, consuming foods in their season is an important issue, because the nutritional value of foods is higher when they are produced in their season. The “American Heart Association” has also confirmed the same point and has recommended the consumption of some autumn foods, which we will examine the properties of dates here.
Best season to consume dates:
According to Salamat News, quoting from Atiye Nou weekly, as much as consuming dates in the summer season causes problems such as acne, sensitivity, excess calories and feeling tired, it is great to consume them in the fall season. The first and most important reason is the provision of carbon hydrate (sugar) and energy necessary for the body in the cold season. Each date has 20 calories and contains five grams of carbohydrates and 2.8 milligrams of calcium. If you are not overweight, your blood concentration is not high, and you are not allergic to food, you can eat up to five dates a day. Dates also help regulate body metabolism.
The risk of heart attack is higher in the cold seasons of the year. But the antioxidants in Kurma Medjool Shah Alam increase the flexibility of the walls of the vessels and reduce the risk of heart attack. “Isoflavone” present in dates also reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

High blood pressure is another disease that consumption of dates can help regulate. The main reason is the high potassium content of dates. Each date contains about 160 mg of potassium. Of course, the amount of potassium is different in different types of dates; But its types contain a good amount of potassium. This element strengthens the muscles of the heart and veins and improves their function, thereby controlling blood pressure.

Date vinegar on the skin
Dates grown in dry areas should be used to prepare date vinegar. Because they don’t have a lot of moisture and the possibility of mold in them is low. The sweeter the date, the later it turns into vinegar.
So, for producing vinegar, dates such as Piarom and Rabbi, which are dry, are very suitable for this purpose. Also, keep in mind that the dates should be free of mold because the mold of one date causes the reproduction and mold of all the ingredients in the date vinegar. The container used to prepare vinegar must also be disinfected and clean so that harmful foreign bacteria do not replace useful bacteria in the process of creating vinegar.
