It is advised to eat a daily dose of 25 g of fibers such as oats,beans,nuts,berries,whole wheat rice and whole wheat bread .

You can have porridge for breakfast ,add beans to your salad or enjoy a berry fruit salad to optimize your fiber intake.

Figs come from the mulberry family of trees. Figs are full of minerals(calcium,iron,Phosphorous,Manganese,sodium,potassium,chlorine) and vitamins such as vitamin A,vitamin B1,vitamin B2.

Mix it in your salads or have it as a snack.

Commercially grown dried figs may be treated with sulfur dioxide gas during processing. They may also contain sulfites to extend their shelf life.

Chose your dried figs wisely when the fresh fruit is still not available. Pick the organic varieties which does not contain additives because sulfite can lead to allergic reaction in sensitive people.

Hearti Grub homemade and hearti snacks

I met Arti Karnik at the Ripe market and went through her amazing heart healthy products ‘’HEARTI GRUB” and found them a very good alternative to industrial snacking.

What is so nice and unique about the products is their traditional aspect as they are handmade from wholesome ingredients with no preservatives. You can find a variety of snacks such as homemade Granola, spiced nuts, seed mix, nut butters and mango relishes.
