Nutritional value of persimmons

Persimmons have long been popular with people of all ages because of their high sugar content and low acid content. The following is a detailed list of the functions of persimmons, which are beneficial to the body.

Vitamin C supplementation

Although persimmons do not contain as much vitamin C as kiwis, the vitamin C content of persimmons is about two times higher than that of ordinary fruits. Therefore, consuming persimmons can be an effective way to replenish your body's vitamin C needs.

Laxative and laxative

Regular consumption of persimmons not only laxates the intestines but also helps to prevent constipation and other discomforts. This is because the organic acids contained in persimmons can effectively promote the digestion of the body's stomach and intestines, and persimmons are also rich in dietary fiber, which can well promote the digestion of the body's stomach and intestines and help relieve constipation.

Prevention of iodine deficiency

Regular consumption of persimmons can also be effective in preventing iodine deficiency. The richness of iodine in persimmons is unmatched by other things, and regular consumption of persimmons can effectively prevent endemic goiter and other conditions caused by iodine deficiency.

Cooling the blood and stopping bleeding

The consumption of fresh persimmons is effective in cooling the blood and stopping bleeding. It is not only persimmons that have this effect, but also a decoction of persimmon leaves and tips. Because persimmons are cold in nature, they are not only effective in cooling the blood and stopping bleeding, but also in clearing away heat, moistening the lungs and relieving cough.

Promote blood circulation and lower blood pressure

Regular consumption of persimmons can effectively help to invigorate the blood and lower blood pressure. In addition, the regular consumption of persimmons can help soften the cardiovascular system, increasing the flow of blood to the coronary arteries of the heart, strengthening cardiovascular function and preventing cardiovascular disease. Drinking a decoction of persimmon leaves can also have the same effect.

Sobriety

Consuming persimmons after drunkenness can be an effective antidote to alcoholism. This is because persimmons promote the rapid oxidation of alcohol produced by drinking in the blood and help the body to evaporate the alcohol out of the body. Eating persimmons not only helps to stop drinking quickly, but also helps to reduce the damage caused by alcohol to the body.

Moistens the lungs and appetite

The consumption of persimmons not only has the above benefits but also is effective in treating various diseases. In addition to persimmons, persimmon peel, persimmon flowers, persimmon root, persimmon cream, etc. all have the same effect. In Chinese medicine, persimmons have been used as medicine since ancient times, and their rich nutrient content can effectively help to moisten the lungs and appetite when consumed regularly.
