Frequently Asked Questions
What are the health benefits of eating dates?
Dates are packed with natural fiber, antioxidants, potassium, magnesium, and vitamins. They support digestion, boost energy, and help maintain heart and bone health. Dates are rich in soluble fiber, which supports a healthy gut, reduces constipation, and improves bowel movements.
Are dates good for weight loss?
Yes—when eaten in moderation. Dates are naturally sweet and can replace processed sugar in your diet, helping you satisfy cravings while providing nutrients.
How many dates should I eat per day?
Most nutritionists recommend 2–4 dates a day for daily energy and fiber. Athletes and active individuals may enjoy more as a natural pre- or post-workout snack.
Do dates have added sugar?
No. Premium dates, like ours, contain only natural sugars made by the fruit itself. We never add preservatives or artificial sweeteners.
What’s the difference between Medjool dates and other varieties?
Medjool dates are larger, softer, and naturally sweeter—often called the “king of dates.” Other varieties like Khalas are smaller, chewier, and more sweeter in flavor. Fard on the other hand, are less sweeter and rich in flavor.
How are Omani dates different?
Omani dates are prized for their caramel-like flavor, soft texture, and centuries-old farming traditions. Grown under Oman’s unique “Aflaj” irrigation system, they carry a distinct richness compared to other varieties.
