They are diuretic and remineralizing
persimmons contain a large amount of water (about 80%) and many mineral salts, especially potassium. This is why consumption is recommended for those who want to purify themselves but also for example for sportsmen who need more reserves of mineral salts.
They contain fiber
they are therefore an excellent natural laxative. The best time to consume them is in the morning for breakfast, in this way it helps peristalsis and going to the bathroom will be easier.
They are super energetic
Persimmons are particularly rich in sugar and calories, therefore ideal for those who need a little extra sprint to fuel better and in general for those who are under stress or feel tired all the time (and this often happens precisely in the autumn season - the nature as always comes to our aid!).

They contain vitamin C and beta-carotene
The quantity varies according to the ripeness of the fruit, it is always better to eat them when they are beautifully ripe also to prevent them from causing that annoying astringent sensation on the palate. Furthermore, like all orange fruit and vegetables, persimmons are also rich in this nutrient, a precursor of vitamin A, an antioxidant, useful for the immune system and for the well-being of the skin.
They have hepatoprotective virtues
They protect the liver, but are also great for keeping the stomach and intestines healthy, especially the bacterial flora.
However, there are also those who should limit their consumption or rather avoid them altogether. Given the high sugar content, in fact, persimmons are not recommended for those suffering from diabetes or obesity. A very limited consumption is instead granted to those on a diet, it is always better to get rid of the desire for dessert by consuming one of these fruits rather than throwing themselves on snacks, snacks or other refined sweets.
