In India, the white fig is regarded as highly nutritious. So full of nutrition, in fact, that Ayurveda bestowed it as being "rasayana", a food of longevity! Cholesterol-free, sodium-free and fat-free, the protein content in these sweet figs is nearly twice as high as other dried fruits, and over ten times that of fresh fruits. High in fiber, figs are also a good source of vitamin C, vitamin B6, calcium, iron, magnesium, thiamine and potassium. A compound found in figs, called benzaldehyde, has actually been shown to help shrink tumors in some tests. Besides, it is worth noting that figs are considered to be an antibacterial and antiulcer food, as well as a natural laxative.
