Bought a packet of dried apricots because i heard they are good for iron. But not sure how many per day or if i should soak them first. How do u all have them?
I used to soak a couple of dried apricots overnight and eat them in the morning, easier to digest that way. They helped with my constipation too. Just keep the quantity small, 2 to 3 a day is plenty.
I just chopped them into my morning oats and curd, so yum honestly. They satisfied my sweet craving without going for biscuits. Soaking makes them softer if you find them too chewy.
They are a bit pricey so I used them as a small daily snack rather than handfuls. Soaked ones with a glass of milk did the trick for iron. A little goes a long way na.
