Persimmon

Avoid during the elimination phase of the diet.

Persimmons contain significant excess fructose that frequently exceeds tolerance thresholds quickly. The dense sweet flesh masks high sugar concentration that rapidly absorbs into the gut. Even small portions can trigger notable bloating in sensitive individuals. Careful monitoring is essential when incorporating into elimination diets.

sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes

Fuyu persimmons contain identical fructose profiles to Hachiya when ripe and sweetened. Freeze overripe persimmon pulp immediately to preserve texture and prevent enzymatic breakdown. Substitute with low-FODMPA poached apples for similar dessert consistency. Store in crisper drawers to preserve firmness and delay sugar conversion.
