Many people have asked us persimmons over the years, and taking advantage of a follower has consulted us, we have prepared this mini article.
The main question that arises is that if the persimmon is so sweet, may be included in a diet ?? The answer is yes, of course! We can benefit from their properties and flavor even when dieting.
Persimmon adequate ration is about 140 g skinless or what is the same, 200 g with skin.
That amount provides about 100 calories. Suitable for a dessert.
* Persimmon (like any other fruit) can take at any time of the day: well after lunch or dinner as a dessert, or to cover the fruit of the smaller meals: breakfast, lunch or snack.
Now let's talk about the most important, as always nutritional properties, we rely on data that FEN provides.
The persimmon is a fruit native to Japan and China, and from the nineteenth century spread across the US and Europe.
There are different varieties, classified according to their astringency. Currently the most consumed are non-astringent varieties (containing small tannins.) And these are going to talk.
Persimmons are rich in carbohydrates, vitamin C, provitamin A and antioxidants.
- Carbohydrates: they contain glucose and fructose, and also pectins, mucilage and insoluble fiber. These compounds retain water causing bowel feces increased in size, which facilitates its removal.
They also retain cholesterol foods, therefore, help lower blood cholesterol.
- Provitamin A (which our body converts to vitamin A): A single persimmon contains more than 30% of the vitamin A that a person needs daily.
It also has antioxidant effect, preventing cellular aging and certain cancers.
- VITAMIN C: A khaki contributes nearly half of vitamin C a person needs a day.
- Tannins: When the persimmon is not mature (its pulp is very hard) has a high tannin content, therefore it is antidiarrheal. But when ripe tannins decrease and increase the sugars, giving it a slightly laxative character.
