- The nutritionist told about the danger of persimmon for people with gastrointestinal diseases
Consumption of persimmons by people who have problems with the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), have diabetes mellitus or a tendency to constipation, can be dangerous due to the high sugar content in this fruit. This was announced on October 27 by nutritionist Ekaterina Guzman.
"Unripe persimmons contain a lot of tannins (especially astringent varieties such as korolek), which can cause constipation, especially in people with pre-existing problems with intestinal motility. <...> Excessive consumption against the background of reduced gastric motility <...> may cause the formation of phytobezoars — dense lumps of undigested fibers. Phytobezoars can cause abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and even intestinal obstruction," she said in an interview withГазетой.ги ".
In order to avoid these negative consequences, the doctor advised choosing only ripe persimmons or freezing them before use. In addition, Guzman recommended eating this product in small quantities after meals.
She also warned citizens with diabetes against excessive consumption of persimmons, as they contain about 16 grams of sugar per 100 grams of product. In the event that consumption does occur, it is important to monitor blood sugar levels and consult a doctor.
Allergies to persimmons are rare, but possible, especially in people with allergies to other fruits or berries.
Nutritionist and nutritionist Roman Pristansky reported on October 14 that fruits or berries should always be on the table to strengthen the immune system, since the more diverse the diet, the more macro- and micronutrients the body receives, which helps it easier to tolerate viral loads. In addition, he dispelled the myth of the alleged uselessness of berries that have been frozen, since shock-frozen products retain almost all useful substances and are excellent for a healthy diet.
