07/09/2018

ripe figs

Figs are packed with plenty of good nutrition.  Figs have a high amount of calcium and dietary fiber – just one fig contains 22 mg. of calcium and 2 grams of fiber.  Figs are also a good source of iron, magnesium, potassium, B vitamins, vitamin K, and antioxidant vitamins.  One fig is only 47 calories and contains12 grams of carbohydrate.  All good news because figs are in season.  This is a good time to add figs to your diet and reap good health benefits!
