7.Apricots
Dried apricots are higher in most nutrients than fresh apricots. A serving of 5-6 dried apricots has more than four times the fiber than a whole fresh apricot. Fiber helps lower your risk of heart disease, diabetes, and some types of cancer. Dried apricots also have more potassium, iron, and calcium. But they’re also much higher in calories and sugar. And they lose most of their vitamin A and C during the drying process.
8.Prunes
Prunes are dried plums. Except for a few vitamins, most nutrients are better in prunes than plums. They’re high in potassium, iron, fiber, and vitamin K, as well as antioxidants. Like other dried fruits, they have a lot of calories and sugar. Prunes also ease constipation.
