What Is the Best Way to Eat Anjeer? - #9292

I recently started eating anjeer, or figs, as part of my diet and have been wondering if there’s a specific way to consume them for maximum benefits. My question is: What is the best way to eat anjeer? From what I’ve read, dried anjeer can be eaten as is, but soaking it overnight is often recommended to improve digestibility and nutrient absorption. Does soaking anjeer enhance its benefits, and how long should it be soaked for optimal results? Is it better to consume the soaked water as well, or should it be discarded? Another popular method is adding anjeer to recipes like smoothies, salads, or desserts. For instance, blending figs with nuts and seeds is said to create a nutrient-packed snack. Are there specific food combinations that enhance the nutritional value of anjeer, such as pairing it with yogurt for gut health or nuts for sustained energy? I’ve also heard that anjeer can be cooked into savory dishes like curries or added to baked goods for natural sweetness. Does cooking affect the nutrients in anjeer, or is it just as beneficial in cooked forms as it is raw? For people managing weight or blood sugar, I’ve read that portion control is key due to anjeer’s natural sugar content. How many figs can be safely consumed daily without causing a spike in blood sugar levels or adding excessive calories to the diet? Lastly, I’d love to know if there are specific times of day when eating anjeer is most beneficial. For example, does eating it in the morning provide more energy throughout the day, or is it better as a pre-workout snack? If anyone has found a favorite way to eat anjeer, I’d love to hear about it. How has it improved your digestion, energy levels, or overall health?
