Plum / आलू बुखारा

Plums are juicy, sweet-tart stone fruits available in a rainbow of colors, from deep purple to golden yellow. Loved for their versatility, plums are enjoyed fresh, dried (as prunes), or processed into jams, juices, and gourmet products.                                                                                                       Health Benefits:
✓Plums contain dietary fiber and sorbitol, which help regulate bowel movements and relieve constipation.
✓Especially the darker varieties, plums are rich in anthocyanins and polyphenols that fight oxidative stress and inflammation.
✓Potassium and antioxidants in plums help lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
✓Despite their natural sweetness, plums have a low glycemic index and may help stabilize blood sugar levels.
✓Some studies (especially on prunes) suggest that plums can help maintain bone density and reduce the risk of osteoporosis.
