Cherry Plum

CHERRY PLUM

 

     Cherry plum fruits (Prunus cerasifera) exhibit a relatively modest vitamin concentration, with the notable exception of ascorbic acid (14.0% of the Daily Value [DV] per 100 g). However, they possess a significant mineral profile, being particularly rich in: boron (131.0% DV per 100 g), silicon (83.0%), iron (11.0%), rubidium (10.0%), and potassium (9.8%).

 

     The nutritional matrix is further characterized by total phytosterols (12.7% DV) and mono- and disaccharides (15.6%), within which glucose significantly prevails as the primary sugar (43.2% DV). The fruit also provides dietary fiber (9.0%) and contains minor quantities of sucrose (1.57 g per 100 g) and starch (0.1 g per 100 g).

 

    The total purine base content per 100 g of cherry plum is negligible, constituting 5.0% of the daily allowance.

 

     The concentration of oxalic acid per 100 g is 10 mg, representing 2.5% of the maximum tolerable daily intake (for further details, see Rhubarb).
