If you love persimmons, like we do, then you’ll love this new spin on a very high fiber fruit.

Persimmons are not only high in fiber, but also in vitamin C, antioxidants, and contain anti-tumor compounds called Catechins which also have anti-infective, anti-inflammatory and anti-hemorrhagic (prevents bleeding from small blood vessels) properties.

We pared them with some fresh mint which is great for digestion, respiratory issues (including asthma), memory loss and pimples!

According to OrganicFacts.net one peculiar property of mint that seems quite contrary to its traditional cooling and soothing effects is that it induces sweating if consumed during fever, thereby breaking the fever and speeding the rate of recovery.

Mint juice can also be applied to heal and soothe burns. It is also beneficial in the treatment of rheumatism.

Furthermore, mint is also said to improve the activity of the brain, although legitimate and consistent research on its neurological impact has yet to be completed.

With all those great benefits this treat is definitely one to add to your table!
