If you eat 3 dates a day for 1 week, this is what happens to your body

6. Healing a broken heart, which means improving your cardiovascular system
Sometimes it only takes a few dates in a row over a long period of time to heal a broken heart.

It’s true. The potassium contained in this seemingly magical little fruit has been found to lower the LDL (bad cholesterol) that leads to clogged arteries, which can lead to strokes and even heart attacks. A study of older women found that high potassium intake was associated with a reduced risk of stroke and ischaemic stroke and mortality.

So invest in one date – or even multiple dates over a long period of time – and you’ll find lasting health, which could well lead to a happier life from then on.
