Experts analyzed the effect of breakfast mode on lifespan.
They found that inclusion of any dried fruit in breakfast reduced the risk of death from heart disease by 18% and from cancer by 11%. Thus, the risk of early death was reduced by 10~15%.
However, a dish of sweet cereal food for breakfast has been reported to increase the probability of early death by 40%.
Researchers studied many people’s eating habits and analyzed the effects of different breakfasts on lifespan.
They concluded that the disease-preventive properties of dried fruit are attributed to the concentration of natural nutrients and dietary fiber during the drying process.
Most dried fruit is also a rich source of potent antioxidants that can prevent heart diseases and cancer.
