If only carrot can run…

Persimmons, the bright orange fruit that seems to be way cheaper nowadays as it is available abundantly. I remembered it was quite expensive some times ago.

I love the firm crunchy texture and the taste of persimmon and I found that there is many great benefits from eating this colorful fruit. As it contains twice as much fiber than apple, it has positive effect on the cholesterol level with the soluble and insoluble dietary fibers. It also contains antioxidants such as carotenoids and polyphenols which may also affect fat metabolism.

Persimmons are also good for your heart as it reduce the risks of cardiovascular disease such as heart disease and stroke.

Besides that, the fruit also is a good source of sodium, potassium, magnesium, manganese and iron, vitamin A and C, good for your lung, relieve diarrhea, treat hypertension, senile asthma and cough with mucus.
