Hương Giang (Theo Healthline) |

Plum is not only a delicious fruit but also a powerful companion in your weight loss journey.

Plum has many health benefits and can support weight loss thanks to the following properties:

Low calorie content:

Plums are a great choice for a weight loss diet because they are low in calories. A medium plum has only about 30 calories.

Rich in fiber:

Plums provide a lot of fiber, helping to improve digestion and increase satiety, thereby reducing calorie intake. The fiber in plums also helps prevent constipation and improve gut health.

Antioxidants:

Pums are rich in antioxidants, which help reduce inflammation and protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. This can support the weight loss process and improve overall health.

Low glycemic index (GI):

Plums have a low GI, which helps control blood sugar levels and prevent blood sugar spikes. This can help control weight more effectively.

Boosts metabolism:

Some studies show that plums can help boost metabolism, support calorie burning and reduce fat.
