Why is it better to buy organic dried figs?

As a short answer, we can give you many reasons from the point of view of their better quality and beneficial properties for the body, but it is also very important the role that organic agriculture plays in the environment and the fight against climate change. The use of pesticides and herbicides is not only highly harmful for human consumption, both in the case of figs and other types of fruit, but it also destroys our planet at a truly accelerated rate. In this sense, it is very necessary to raise awareness among the population about the consumption of organic products. We want to contribute our bit with our organic fruit.

Are dried figs with rice flour better?

As is well known, rice flour, which is present in these dried figs, unlike traditional wheat flour, does not contain gluten, a highly harmful component for the body, especially for people with a diagnosed celiac problem.

Recent studies and increasing ongoing scientific research indicate that gluten is an element that is not healthy for humans in general. This means that, to a greater or lesser extent, we are all intolerant to gluten. The difference lies in the degree of our body's resistance to gluten, that is, the degree of intolerance: while a person diagnosed with celiac disease has a maximum degree, a normal person has a much lower degree, however, this does not mean that they cannot develop this disease later in life if they consume many gluten-rich foods.

Therefore, these dried figs with rice flour cut off any problems related to gluten consumption from the root. So, if you were in doubt, don't think twice, all our products are highly healthy, we always think of you. The dried fig is the healthiest treat.
