Due to their high levels of antioxidant compounds, plums strengthen the immune system and protect the body against cancer, inflammation and various infections. Antioxidants reduce the risk of heart disease in the body. The potassium in plums helps the blood vessels maintain blood pressure and, as a result, reduces high blood pressure. The high fiber in plums is effective in treating diabetes. The fiber in plums creates a feeling of fullness and satiety in overweight people and therefore reduces the amount of body fat.
