most perfect foods!

Dates
have 20 different kinds of amino acids, which aid in the digestive
process. Dates are very rich in both vitamins and minerals, and they
contain more potassium than an orange or a banana per ounce. These
nutritious fruit of the date palm contain vitamins A, A1, B1, B2, B3,
B5, and B6. Dates also are rich in oil, calcium, sulfur, iron,
potassium, phosphorous, manganese, copper, protein and fiber. Dates are
fat free, cholesterol free, and they are very low in sodium.
So you realize that a Date Shake is just what you need to be healthy????
