Medjool Palestine Jumbo Dates — Dense Energy & Highest Fiber per Date
Medjool is known as the king of dates for its large size and thick flesh. Per USDA data, Medjool per 100 grams contains about 277 kcal, 75g carbohydrate, 6.7g fiber, 696mg potassium, and 54mg magnesium. Because they are jumbo, a single Medjool contributes about 1.6g fiber and 55–66 kcal — a practical, dense energy source.
Three Favorite Uses
- Natural pre-workout — quick energy before exercise, no added sugar
- Postpartum recovery — an energy-dense snack for new mothers (as part of a diet, not a medical claim)
- Kitchen-sugar substitute — Medjool paste for smoothies, healthy bakes, and oatmeal
Medjool as a Sugar Substitute
Because of their intense sweetness, Medjool are often used as a natural sweetener. You can make date paste (soak, then blend) to replace sugar in recipes. This adds fiber and potassium versus table sugar, though it still contributes calories. For dieting, count the portion: 2–3 Medjool can equal 120–200 kcal.
