Plum is called an anti-aging product, which also protects against a number of diseases.

The whole secret lies in the content of antioxidants, which protect the body from negative processes.

Nutritionist Elena Solomatina told Moscow 24 that many diseases develop with inflammation.

These processes trigger conditions under which heart and vascular diseases, diabetes, and oncology appear.

Plum is not a panacea, but it reduces the damage caused by inflammatory processes and slows down the aging of the body.

In addition, plums remove harmful substances from the body. Here, fiber acts, which activates the intestines and gets rid of cholesterol and excess sugar.

But you shouldn't get too carried away with plums either. You can eat up to 3 large fruits or up to 5 small ones per day.

Then there will be health benefits, but individual cases should be taken into account. There are categories for whom it is better to avoid plums.
