The Benefits
Promote Good Sleep
Restorative deep sleep is paramount to your overall well-being. When our body rests, cells repair themselves, and your body reverses the damages it has been put through during the day. This prevents premature ageing and allows your body to reset the stresses of the day. Longans contain gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) which signals the brain to relax, and to suppress other signals that bring about insomnia, anxiety and stress. Furthermore, Red dates facilitate this process by stimulating the “signal receivers” in our brain so that we can fall asleep sooner, while nourishing for the blood with its high iron content. Goji berries are also known to promote the quality of sleep, through an important neuro signal, the Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which can help relieve anxiety and protect the brain against free radicals stemming from oxidative stresses. Together, these powerful fruits promote deeper and better quality sleep to allow the body to better rejuvenate overnight and thus energises you to perform better the next day!
Promotes Blood Circulation & Replenishment
Regulating and promoting blood circulation is integral to support our daily bodily functions. These 3 powerful fruits have health properties to help support the blood circulation in the body. Red Dates helps to replenish the blood and promote blood circulation. Red Dates are iron-rich fruits that helps to increase the oxygen-carrying capacity of blood cells, which helps improve anemia. Also, these dates contains cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP messengers) that are signal molecules that helps to adjust metabolism (removal of dead cells) and accelerate the reproduction of new blood cells in the bone marrow. Longans are also similar to Red Dates in that they are iron-rich fruits that helps to increase the oxygen-carrying capacity of blood cells. Goji Berries also supports and help regulate blood sugar levels and improve blood circulation. Research has also discovered that the three fruits could possibly improve the blood circulation especially to the brain, hence allowing the brain to properly restore and rejuvenate itself through the night.
