  • Abstract:
  • Persimmon (Diospyros spp.), a fruit high in bioactive chemicals, has sparked widespread interest due to its possible health advantages. It is famous for its nutritional value, which includes vitamins, minerals, fiber, and polyphenolic substances. Recent research suggests that persimmon may provide a variety of health benefits, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and cardioprotective characteristics. This review investigates the bioactive chemicals found in persimmons and gives an outline of developing evidence supporting their medicinal potential. The objective of this paper is to highlight the growing interest in persimmon as a functional food and to assess its health benefits using scientific research.
