Cut open, a good fig is deep pink and dense right to the skin — not pale or hollow.

Among the fibre-densest common fruits are a natural, gentle laxative when soaked overnight and eaten on an empty stomach.

One of the highest-calcium fruits (dried) — meaningful for daily calcium in dairy-light diets.

Fig + walnut is the classical Persian pairing — pectin (a soft fibre in fruit that thickens jam) and prebiotic (fibre that feeds the helpful bacteria in your gut) fibre from anjir, ω-3 ALA and polyphenols (protective plant compounds) from gerdoo.

The fresh fruit contains latex — sensitive skin may react to handling the stems and unripe fruit.
