In Europe and America, black dates have become a popular aid for constipation, offering not just digestive relief but also various nutritional benefits with certain anti-cancer effects. A study published in 2022 in 'Food Funct' revealed that consuming dried black dates daily for a year can enhance the gut microbiota of menopausal women, particularly by increasing the abundance of beneficial bacteria such as Lachnospira. Additionally, research from 2020 in 'Adv Nutr' showed that incorporating dried fruits such as black dates into one's diet can reduce the risk of certain digestive cancers significantly. Furthermore, black dates contain soluble and insoluble fiber, polyphenols, oligosaccharides, and sorbitol, which not only aid in maintaining regular bowel movements but also promote gut health by providing prebiotics for beneficial gut bacteria.

In the modern busy lifestyle, people often overlook the importance of breakfast, not realizing that it is the source of energy for the day and crucial for gastrointestinal absorption and digestion. Consuming low glycemic index (GI) foods for breakfast can help stabilize blood sugar levels and provide a sense of fullness. Dr. Wang Dayuan suggests choosing high-fiber foods like whole grain bread over white bread, less processed ingredients like brown rice over turnip cakes, or resistant starches like white rice over sticky rice to maintain stable blood sugar levels. Additionally, consuming foods rich in tryptophan (the precursor of serotonin) can help regulate emotional fluctuations and relieve feelings of lethargy, enhancing mental clarity and energy throughout the day.

As global attention turns to the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision next week, Taiwan's central bank will also convene a board meeting to discuss whether or not to raise interest rates. Speculations suggest that a rate hike might be aimed at curbing the housing market, but some scholars argue that with interest rates currently at their highest in 15 years, not raising them would still be considered tightening. The decision on a rate hike will be made after reaching a consensus at the upcoming board meeting on June 13, with the focus on selective credit controls rather than interest rate adjustments to address housing issues. The dilemma between raising or maintaining interest rates is emphasized, with experts warning about the potential negative impact of a rate hike on the overall economy.
