Dates fruit consumption during the last few weeks of pregnancy facilitates cervical dilatation and spontaneous labor


It is said that Mary gave birth to Jesus under a palm tree and ate date fruits to ease her labor pains. Almost 2000 years later scientist and researchers are turning towards dates to find safer alternatives for induction and augmentation of labor.

A prospective study carried out at the Jordan University of Science and Technology from 2007 to 2008 and published in 2011 in the Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology documented that consumption of 6 dates fruits (Phoenix dactylifera) per day for 4 weeks before the estimated due date resulted in significantly higher mean cervical dilatation at admission, intact membranes, and spontaneous labor. Spontaneous labor occurred in 96% of those who consumed dates, compared with 79% of women in the non-date fruit consumers (p = 0.024)

Results of a randomized controlled trial published in Iranian Journal of Nursing and Midwifery Research reports that consuming dates in late pregnancy shortens the labor significantly and eliminates the need of labor augmentation by oxytocin.

Another randomized trial published July 2017 in Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology supports the findings of earlier studies and states that “dates consumption in late pregnancy is a safe supplement to be considered as it reduced the need for labor intervention without any adverse effect on the mother and child.”

Here is a very informative YouTube video about dates as the best food during late pregnancy by Dr. Michael Greger, M.D., FACLM. He is a physician, author, and internationally recognized speaker on many important public health issues and believes that food is medicine. Dr. Greger is the founder of the non-profit, science-based website NutritionFacts.org.

  4. HOW DR MOHAMMED CURED MY HERPES VIRUS Been diagnosed of herpes is just like being through hell but everything is possible. So amazing and I want to testify of the good work done by Dr MOHAMMED, a very strong and powerful healer he has proved science and scientists wrong for believing and thinking that there is no cure for Herpes Virus, but to be sincere this Dr MOHAMMED is so real and powerful. I never thought that this cure will work but this GREAT MAN has proved it to me and it has worked and still works perfectly. I was diagnosed with the deadly disease called Herpes April 2016 and I thought that this will be the end and there will be no hope. Speaking to anyone was always a problem because i was so worried and always in the state of unrest in fact i thought it was over until one blessed day when i was searching for help here on the internet, i came across a testimony about Dr MOHAMMED on how he helped a lady who was also infected with Herpes Virus, how he has also helped many others to get their loved ones back, and how he has also help others to cure hepatitis B. At first i thought it was all a lie but i decided to give him a try since there was no option,  and when i contacted this MAN he laughed and told me  that is too small for him to handle but i was still in doubt, he instructed me on what to do and i OBEYED him completely as he told me. Then he prepared the herbal medicine and sent it to me through the DHL courier delivery service. i received it, and after 3 WEEKS of taking his medication,  he told me to go for check up but I was still in doubt and was so afraid to go for the test but i took a bold step and believed that it is well, and i believed all what he has done and all that he has told me. So I went to the hospital for the test. It was so amazing, awesome and exciting that what seemed to be impossible became possible, the VIRUS disappeared completely from my system quickly. I called him and told him what happened. He congratulated me  and told me whoever contacted him received his/her healing. Today I am a happy person again the way things used to be. Don’t you think that this testimony is worth sharing? I promise to tell the world about him and I will keep sharing this testimony till the end. Because many people has died of herpes and i want many people who believed that it is over to know that EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE  and if you are suffering from disease like DIABETES, /STROKE/ CANCER/ High Blood pressure/ HERPES/ DIABETES you can contact him on his (EMAIL; herbalcure12@gmail.com) or you can message him on his via whats App (+ 2349036036397)
