Morning Caution: Choose Wisely Which Dry Fruits To Eat

Saurav Gupta

Raisins

High in natural sugars, may spike blood sugar levels on an empty stomach. Best enjoyed later in the day.

Dates

Nutrient-rich but high in natural sugars. Morning consumption may lead to energy spikes and crashes. Consider for later hours.

Figs

Fiber-rich but heavy on an empty stomach. Ideal for a mid-morning snack rather than a standalone breakfast option.

Apricots

High in iron and fiber, but tough on the digestive system in the morning. Soak them overnight for improved digestibility.

Prunes

Known for digestive benefits but can have a laxative effect in the morning. Save for an afternoon or evening snack.

Cranberries

Watch out for added sugars. Choose unsweetened varieties and consume in moderation for a balanced breakfast.
