Frequently Asked Questions

How does Pitted Dates support gut health?
Pitted Dates contains 7.5g of fiber per 100g (27% DV). Fiber feeds beneficial gut bacteria, which produce short-chain fatty acids (butyrate) that reduce inflammation, strengthen the gut barrier, and improve insulin sensitivity. The high fiber content also slows glucose absorption, reducing insulin spikes.
Does Pitted Dates contain anti-nutrients?
Phytates (reduce zinc, iron, calcium absorption 20-60%). Lectins (can irritate gut lining โ€” destroyed by proper cooking). Soaking 12-24h reduces phytates 30-50%. Cooking destroys lectins and protease inhibitors. Fermentation (tempeh, miso) reduces all anti-nutrients. Sprouting increases nutrient bioavailability. Benefits (fiber, protein, minerals) far outweigh anti-nutrient concerns for most people.
How filling is Pitted Dates?
Pitted Dates has a satiety score of 8.3/10. The 7.5g fiber adds bulk and slows digestion. This makes it effective for appetite control between meals.
