Plums, the fruit that is good for the body after the holidays

After the summer holidays, our body needs regeneration: hydration, healthier meals and a fruit that brings us back into balance. And plums are exactly what we need. A few plums a day and the return to everyday life becomes sweeter and smoother!

Helps cleanse the intestines

After barbecues, ice cream, and heavier meals, digestion may need a little boost. Plums, with their fiber, help the intestines function properly and act naturally against constipation. Their skin contains large amounts of fiber, so it is better to consume them whole and not just peeled, in order to fully benefit from their action.

Provides the nutrients you need to recover

After the holidays, your body needs nutrients. Prunes contain vitamins, minerals, omega-6 fats, and amino acids—all the things your body needs for energy and cell protection. In particular, they are a rich source of vitamin K and also contain significant amounts of B vitamins, vitamins A and E, potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and manganese.

Protects cells and the brain

Plums are distinguished by their high phenolic content, which is also responsible for their strong antioxidant activity. In fact, these specific compounds have the ability to neutralize the peroxide radical, as well as protect fats from oxidation caused by oxygen. This results in the protection of fatty acids found in cell membranes, in lipoproteins in the bloodstream, and in the membranes of cells and neurons in our brain.
