What is this food?
AI-assisted Black/Java plum (locally called “black plum” or “Java plum”) is a small, dark-colored fruit. It’s usually eaten fresh and can also be used in drinks or desserts.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted At about 71 kcal per 100g, it’s a lighter fruit option that can help add natural sweetness to your day. It provides carbohydrates for energy and has very little fat and no cholesterol. It also has a small amount of sodium, which is generally not a concern for most people when eaten as part of balanced meals. Since it’s still a fruit, pairing it with meals or snacks that include protein and fiber-rich foods can help keep you fuller and support steadier energy.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted - For your snacks (1–2 per day), try a small bowl of black/Java plum instead of sugary drinks.
- Pair it with plain yogurt, milk, or a handful of nuts to balance your snack.
- If you’re using it in desserts, keep the portion smaller and add less sugar—let the fruit do the sweetness.
- For meals, you can add it as a side fruit after lunch or dinner to round out your plate.
