BENEFITS OF TADGOLA – https://www.mobiefit.com/blog/superfood-wonders-of-the-humble-tadgola-or-ice-apple/

Palm fruits are loaded with minerals like sodium, potassium, phosphorus and calcium, as well as traces of zinc and iron which can help keep your salt and electrolyte balance in check, especially in summers where we lose a lot of water through sweat. The potassium content further helps in flushing out liver toxins. Besides, the fruit also contains small doses of Vitamins A, B and C and virtually no traces of fat, making it ideal for those on a diet.

Though low in calories, ice apples are known for their glucose content that can help keep energy levels up even in draining heat. Not only does it help prevent dehydration, but also fights heat-related fatigue, and allows you to keep going for longer. Interestingly, neera or the sap from the palm trunk that is extracted early morning is also another popular summer drink, and a great energy-boosting option for the season.

Nutritionists and health experts these days recommend going back to local foods and flavors in our bid to eat healthy. Indigenous produce is better equipped than supplements and health foods to fulfill specific nutritional requirements that are often dictated by geography and local climate. The palm fruit is no exception. If you’ve never tried it or left the taste behind somewhere in your childhood, now’s a good time to welcome this delicious fruit back into your life.
