This is a powder made from immature green persimmons harvested in Wakayama Prefecture, which boasts the highest production of persimmons in Japan, dried using far infrared rays.
"Persimmon" is the English term for the persimmon tree. The immature "green persimmons" are harvested in late July. Due to their very strong astringency, they cannot be eaten directly. However, it has been known for a long time that they are rich in a type of polyphenol called condensed tannins. Condensed tannins have been shown to encapsulate bile acids and expel them from the body as waste. Bile acids are the main component of bile, which is produced from cholesterol and plays a role in promoting the absorption of dietary fats. Expelling bile acids from the body using condensed tannins contributes to maintaining a healthy cycle within the body.
