MAZAFATI DATES

Iran is one of the most date-producing countries (second in the world only to Egypt) but is only seventh as an exporter of this delicious delicacy.

The explanation is very simple, as its domestic consumption is equivalent to 90 percent of production, so the product is not widely distributed abroad. The peculiarity of being used as a sweetener without creating the problems of refined sugars is the reason why, unlike the productions of other countries, Persian dates are highly valued from the health aspect.

The varieties we market are Mazafati, Piarom and Rabi, offered to all sales channels, from G.D.O. to small local retailers, in compliance with EU health requirements.

Given its high energy power, date consumption is recommended for those on energy diets, particularly indicated in cases of physical debilitation and fatigue.

In addition, the pulp of the fruit is a source of magnesium: in this regard, the date, which like a sponge absorbs minerals from the soil, is a mine of this important mineral (it contains approximately 50-60 mg of magnesium per 100 g of product). In any case, magnesium is not the only mineral contained in dates: there is also iron, potassium, copper, zinc, calcium, manganese, and phosphorus. With the exception of tyrosine.
