With the arrival of November, persimmons appear on the shelves of shops and markets. Rambler will tell you why this berry is dangerous to health.
Doctors say that persimmon is very useful, because it contains many vitamins and minerals that strengthen the immune system during the season of viral diseases.
The orange fruit contains vitamins A, B and C, which increase the protective properties of the body. In addition, persimmon is rich in potassium and magnesium, which strengthen the walls of blood vessels and heart muscle. And iodine and iron, which are also part of the composition, are essential elements for people suffering from anemia. Among other things, persimmon is considered a diuretic, and therefore, by removing excess fluid from the body, it helps with edema.
Despite all the beneficial properties of this berry, it can be harmful to the body. For example, excess tannins, which are responsible for the astringent effect, can cause constipation. And regular consumption of persimmons for several years leads to the formation of bezoars in the stomach – dense balls of poorly digested substances.
And because of the high content of glucose and fructose with this berry, overweight people and diabetics should be careful.
