Learn about the benefits of figs from a nutritional standpoint, also why they're sometimes referred to as a non-vegan type fruit. Also, details about "fig latex" and why is it better to consume ripe figs.

Ficus carica species or the "common fig" can be found fresh when in season or is frequently available as a dried variety and/or fig paste. There are lots of fig trees growing wild in our home state of California, brought by the Spanish missionaries, and we enjoy their abundant harvests several times a year.

It's a myth that a high fibre diet is good for constipation. A lot of fibre causes constipation. A lot of bulk in the bowels does not enable the stool to move but causes congestion just llike adding more cars to a traffic jam does not solve the jam. When I ate no fibre for several months I had the best bowel movements but unfortunately I couldn't stay on that diet because it had side effects I couldn't tolerate.

How do you protect your tree from racoons and squirrels? It is only the 2nd year that our tree started getting fruit, but while we wait for them to ripe, the local fauna gets them before we do.
