Venkatesh Naturals Raw Fig Powder

Figs are the fruit of the ficus tree, which is part of the mulberry family (Moraceae). They belong to the genus Ficus, and their scientific name is Ficus carica. Fig is a soft fruit with a thin skin that can be either green or purple. The flesh of a fig is typically red, and the entirety of the fruit is edible. Figs have a unique, sweet taste, soft and chewy texture and are littered with slightly crunchy, edible seeds. Figs are high in natural sugars, minerals and soluble fibre. Figs are rich in minerals including potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron and copper and are a good source of antioxidant vitamins A and K that contribute to your health.
