Fresh persimmons are rich in-carotene, which is a strong antioxidant. It can not only resist the damage of free radicals to protein, lipids and nucleic acids in vivo, but also increase the contents of superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase in vivo, thus helping to delay the aging of cells and the body.

The-carotene contained in persimmon can be converted into vitamin A in vivo, which is an indispensable raw material for the synthesis of rhodopsin by retinal rod cells.

Vitamin C can not only whiten and remove spots, but also help the body strengthen its resistance. In addition, the-carotene in persimmon can be converted into vitamin A according to the needs of the body. In addition to maintaining visual function, vitamin A can also maintain the normal immune function of the body. Therefore, eating persimmons in autumn and winter is very beneficial to improve the body's disease resistance and prevent colds.
