Top 6 dried fruits that raise hemoglobin, as well as a recipe for a healthy mixture based on them

To increase the level of hemoglobin in the blood, according to research , one of the most important conditions is to ensure high bioavailability of iron (this metal is the main hemoglobin).

And this is facilitated by ascorbic acid, copper, folic acid, sulfur-containing amino acids, glucose. All these components are found in large quantities in almost all healthy dried fruits . Which of them will help to increase hemoglobin in the blood most quickly at its low level? Is it possible to eat them at elevated levels? All the answers are in the article.

Why do they raise hemoglobin?

The main effect of eating dried fruits is that they increase the bioavailability of iron, that is, stimulate its absorption by the body and subsequent synthesis of hemoglobin.

Along with this dried fruits:

1. Normalize the biochemical composition of the blood. This is achieved due to the presence of a sick amount of fiber in the composition of dried fruits. All this in total normalizes the biochemical composition of the blood, allows you to extract more micronutrients and vitamins from food.
2. Stimulate intercellular metabolic processes in the bone marrow. And it is in it that all the shaped elements are produced, including hemoglobin.
3. Increase the concentration of glucose in the blood. She is directly involved in the production of blood.

 

Top 6 most effective dried fruits

As mentioned above, dried fruits rich in ascorbic acid, iron, copper, and folic acid contribute to an increase in hemoglobin in the blood. The richest in these components are: apples, apricots, raisins, prunes, dates, figs.

1. Dried apples

Apples are the most iron-rich fruits. At the same time, they include a considerable proportion of folic and ascorbic acid .

Fresh apples raise hemoglobin, but during heat treatment, most of the useful components break down into derivative elements, that is, apples lose their useful properties. That is why it is recommended to dry apple slices not in sunlight, but simply with a stream of air.

Almost all specialized fruit dryers support this function (convection without heating).

2. Dried apricots

Dried apricots are rich in potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron and ascorbic acid. It also contains pectin, which accelerates the elimination of toxins from the body, normalizing the water-salt balance (this is regulates blood viscosity ).

In principle, for any pathologies of the cardiovascular system, doctors recommend that include dried apricots in your diet - this prevents a deficiency of hemoglobin, ascorbic acid and B vitamins, which directly affect blood production and normalization of its viscosity.

3. Raisin

Raisins (dried grapes) is a source of iron , magnesium, thiamine, manganese and B-group vitamins. But it is worth considering that raisins also contain a wide range of tannins, which Increase blood viscosity , increase the risk of thrombosis.

And raisins are also quite "heavy" for the digestive tract and should not be abused, especially in the presence of ulcerative erosions of the stomach and / or duodenum.

4. Prunes

Contains vitamins A, PP, and B-groups. In prunes – one of the highest folic acid content , which is responsible for the work of the endocrine system and stimulating blood production in the bone marrow.

Prunes also have a powerful laxative effect. So, if you have diarrhea, it's better to give it up.

5. Fig

Rich in mineral components (sodium, magnesium), B-group vitamins (including B ₉ ).

Contains iron in a very small amount, but it is practically not absorbed by the body (since it is oxidized in an immature fetus, which triggers the synthesis of potassium compounds to carbohydrates).

Figs are also useful in reducing venous tone, with a tendency to thrombosis. It is necessarily included in the diet of patients with chronic diseases of the cardiovascular system (as well as after a heart attack, stroke – this will accelerate restoration of vascular tone , will prevent the complication of the course of the disease).

6. Dates

Of dried fruits, dates have the highest carbohydrate content (up to 70%, only dried bananas have more).

And it also contains a large number of of vitamin B ₅ , which prevents the oxidation of red blood cells (hemoglobin is transported through the body precisely with the help of red blood cells). It also contains a small amount of iron – about 1.5 mg per 100 grams of product (this is 6 times less than in apples).

Recipe for a blood-healthy mixture

To quickly raise the hemoglobin level, you can prepare a simple a mixture of dried fruits and honey . This is a pretty delicious dessert that will provide the body with iron , and all the necessary vitamins for its absorption.

Literally 150 grams of such a mixture will provide a daily allowance of all the necessary nutritional components. It is prepared on the basis of dried apricots, prunes, raisins, nuts and honey.

The composition is prepared as follows:

1. To prepare the mixture, you will need 40 grams of dried apricots, 50 grams of prunes, 30 grams of raisins, 30 grams of walnuts (can be replaced with any other except peanuts) and 1 liter of honey (padeva is best suited, since it contains a lot of minerals).
2. All dried fruits must first be rinsed in warm water (in no case soaked), then passed through a meat grinder (or use a blender or food processor for grinding).
3. Add honey to the resulting mixture and mix thoroughly. Mix only with a spoon, do not use a blender or a food processor – in this case, the mixture will take on foam.
4. Put the finished mixture in an airtight glass container and store at room temperature. You can also keep it in the refrigerator, but it gets very thick.

It is recommended to use the mixture at 150 grams per day, divided into 3 to 5 doses. You can supplement this mixture with mint leaves and orange essential oil.

Such a mixture has the following effects on the body:

1. Significantly raises the level of red blood cells. For anemia, it is an extremely effective treatment. With increased hemoglobin, it is better to abandon it.
2. Normalizes the biochemical composition of the blood. It helps to strengthen the immune system and recover faster after a prolonged illness.
3. Improves vein tone. This will help to avoid varicose veins, hemorrhoids (inflammation of hemorrhoids, which are veins), thrombosis, and reduce the likelihood of exacerbation of atherosclerosis.
4. Normalizes blood viscosity. This effect is achieved despite the high glucose content in a mixture of dried fruits with honey and nuts.

Conclusion

In total, dried fruits are ideal for rapid normalization of blood composition, since they contain glucose, B-group vitamins, iron, magnesium, potassium, and ascorbic acid. The main effect is an increase in the bioavailability of iron and a subsequent increase in hemoglobin. Without the same ascorbic acid, iron is practically not absorbed.

Dried fruits also have a complex beneficial effect on the cardiovascular system, preventing the occurrence of heart failure, a decrease in vascular tone, and the heart itself. At the same time, it is enough to eat only 50 – 70 grams of dried fruits daily to improve the condition of the circulatory system.
