per 100g

  • 70 cal. Considered low-cal. Excluding the over-ripe ones I can eat up to 3 in a day, about 200 calories
  • considered “high fiber”. Persimmon fiber can reduce LDL bad cholesterol. [3]
  • zero fat
  • carb 18 g
  • I found it quite filling
  • unripe Hachiya persimmons have a terrible tartness and can lead to stomach stones
