As Salam,

Although there are many benefits of eating persimmon, but there are a few points need to be reminded:

 

1.While Fasting, can not eat persimmons

    Contains more a result of persimmon tannin and pectin, in the fasting cases they will be formed under the effect of gastric acid of the lumps vary in size, if these lumps can not reach the pyloric intestine, it will remain in the stomach to form gastric persimmon stone, Stone was originally a small stomach, such as apricots, persimmon nuclear, but the more the larger plot. If the stomach can not be naturally expelled diospyrobezoar, it will cause the digestive tract obstruction, there upper abdominal pain, vomiting, and even vomiting blood and other symptoms, surgery was found in the stomach as big as a fist persimmon stone. If the stomach "with bottom", then the stomach can be avoided persimmon stone formation.
 
 2. Do not eat the Persimmon skin

    Some people feel that eating persimmon persimmon skin while chewing are more than the single-eaten persimmon taste, in fact this is unscientific eat. Because the vast majority of persimmon tannin in concentrated in the skin, in persimmon astringent, it is impossible to tannic acid which all Tuojin, if eaten with skin is easier with the formation of gastric persimmon stone, especially astringent process incomplete , its skin contains more of tannic acid.

 

3. Do not eat together with/after food containing high-protein like crabs, fish, shrimp and others.

5. Enough is enough

    The tannic acid in persimmon with dietary calcium, zinc, magnesium, iron and other minerals to form compounds that can not be absorbed by the body so that these nutrients can not be used and therefore I eat persimmons easily lead to a lack of these minerals. And because more sugar persimmon, so people eat persimmons than eating the same amount of apples, pears and more satiety of Health, which will affect the appetite, and reduce the intake of meals. Is generally believed that fasting is not the case, each no more than 200 grams to eat persimmons suitable.

 
6. Mouthwash after eating

    Persimmon sugar high, and contains pectin, persimmon, after eating part of the total stay in the mouth, especially in the teeth, with the addition of tannic acid weak acid, it is easy to cause tooth erosion, the formation of dental caries and therefore I eating persimmons advised to drink after a few saliva, or timely mouthwash
