Dried persimmon benefits

Fiber rich

Persimmons are high in fiber, particularly if they are dried. Consuming fiber can help to lower levels of “bad cholesterol” in the body.

Soluble fiber, such as that found in persimmons, can bind with cholesterol in the digestive system and remove it from the body.

People can also add persimmons to meals. For example, people can:

• add dried persimmons to breads, cakes, and other baked goods
• use fresh persimmon in salads, pickles, or sauces
• puree the flesh and add it to yogurt or ice cream
• add dried or fresh persimmon as a topping on cereals, muesli, or granola
