Today I want to talk to you about the benefits of dried fruit, a food that should never be missing in vending machines and for our diet. Nuts are a rich source of nutrients that are essential for our well-being, such as vitamins, minerals, fiber, and unsaturated fats. In addition, if it is of high quality, it has performance in terms of environmental impact that makes it fully part of the good practices of the circular economy.

Dried fruit is divided into two categories: nuts (such as walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts, pistachios, etc.) and dried fruit (such as figs, dates, apricots, plums, etc.). Both are very nutritious and caloric, so they should be consumed in moderation and preferably plain, without added salt or sugar.
Nuts are particularly rich in good fats (Omega-3 and Omega-6), which help lower cholesterol and prevent cardiovascular disease. It also contains protein, fiber, and minerals such as magnesium, potassium, iron, copper, phosphorus, and calcium. Dried fruit, on the other hand, is rich in sugars (glucose and fructose), which provide immediate energy to the body. It also contains soluble fiber, which promotes digestion and bowel regularity, and minerals such as potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, calcium, and iron.
