Plums are a small and round purple fruit that have origins in China.
Appearance wise, a dark purple skin surrounds the juicy flesh, which can range from yellow-orange to reddish-purple in color.
Plums can either be eaten fresh or in their dried state, which is called a ‘prune’.
The taste of plums differs depending on the variety and degree of ripeness. While ripe plums tend to be sweet, an unripe plum can taste incredibly tart.
Plums are one of the most polyphenol-rich fruits, and randomized controlled trials suggest they can help protect against bone loss.
