Persimmon is a bright orange, honey-sweet winter fruit that fits perfectly into festive menus and heart-healthy eating. A single fruit delivers impressive fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants, making it an easy superfruit to include in any delicacy. But what makes it great is that one serving of this fruit has about 118 g, which provides around 118 calories, around 31 g carbohydrates, about 6 g fiber, and almost no fat. It is rich in vitamin A for vision and skin, vitamin C for immunity, potassium, manganese, and protective carotenoids and polyphenols.
