Dates
Dates are high in fiber and are one of the oldest nutrient-rich foods known to man. Dates were consumed in Mesopotamia and by the prehistoric Egyptians seemingly already as early as 4000 years before Christ.
Research Results
In a study led at the Biochemistry Department at Virginia Tech, Blacksburg Virginia, and the Department of Nutrition, Institute of Basic Medical Sciences, University of Oslo, Norway, researchers screened antioxidant content or total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of 12 most popular sugar and sugar alternatives currently on the market. The result: Date Sugar contained the highest level – approx. 400 times higher than refined, white sugar. The Virginia Tech researchers recommend replacing your refined sugar with date sugar.
Furthermore, according to research studies conducted at the University of Scranton, Pennsylvania, dates contain the highest concentration of polyphenols (antioxidants) among the dried fruits.
Clean Choice Award Winner
Date Sugar has received the Clean Choice award from the Clean Eating Magazine in the sweetener category.
Joel Fuhrman, M.D., a board-certified family physician, New York Times best-selling author and nutritional researcher who specializes in preventing and reversing disease through nutritional and natural methods, is an enthusiastic user and promoter of date sugar.
Dr. Norman Walker, recognized throughout the world as one of the most authoritative voices in the raw food movement, likewise recommended date sugar.
Production
Our date’s grower is a small family farm who has been producing dates for generations. It was 1924 when their ancestors, a pioneer couple moved to the California desert and commenced growing their first date palms. The tradition of honest, loving laboring of the land, respectful of nature, wholesome hand processing practices, have been kept ‘till the present day.
The dates are picked semi-desiccated from the sun and are further dehydrated with outside ambient air to low moisture levels. The dates are then pitted and milled and run through a screen to separate any remaining pits and bigger parts from the sugar granules.
