Get Healthy By Eating This Candy
What candy am I talking about? “Nature’s Candy” also known as Medjool dates. These fruits are not only creamy and taste like caramel, but they’re also good for you in so many ways.
Food Research International reveals that dates fight free radicals and have antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer activities. Plus so many more benefits.
Medjool dates help to build strong bones, prevent and relieve constipation, lower cholesterol, and boost energy.
Tips to remember when shopping for dates
But, take caution before you pick up a pack of Medjool dates from the store!
Glyphosate is Roundup commonly used in conventional farming as an herbicide to kill weeds.
Some farmers growing Medjool dates who claim they don’t use pesticides may still use Roundup. When farmers spray glyphosate the date palms absorb it from the ground through their roots.
My Favorite brand of Medjool dates
I love Joolies Medjool dates because they’re not only free from glyphosate residue but USDA Organic and non-GMO. And these Medjool dates are fresh and not dried.

More important things to know about Joolies
Joolies ranch is located in Coachella Valler, California. The sun, soil, and Colorado River make is a great spot to grow dates. This also helps to improve the quality of the Medjool dates when they’re ripe and ready to be harvested.
Also, the company is sustainable and takes its workers’ safety and health into consideration. Team members harvest the dates using Afron lifts, not ladders and machetes.
