The difference between cherries and plums

Cherries are fruits that are out of season in the summer, and plums are out of season at about the same time, but there is still a big difference between cherries and plums. Cherries can be said to be the king of fruits, rich in iron; plums also contain a variety of nutrients, and both have the function of beautifying and lubricating the skin. However, plums taste sour, while cherries are mostly sweet, so most people like to eat cherries but not plums.

They are all fruits, but the difference is huge. Does not belong to a category. Plums and cherries are very different, so let's make a comparison below.

Plum is a plant of the genus Prunus in the Rosaceae family, also known as Jiaqingzi, Bulin, plum, Yuhuangli, and mountain plum. Its fruit matures between July and August, is plump and round, exquisitely carved, beautiful in shape and sweet in taste, making it one of people's favorite fruits. Widely cultivated throughout the world.

Plums are sour in taste and can promote the secretion of gastric acid and gastric digestive enzymes, and promote gastrointestinal motility. Therefore, they have the effect of improving appetite and promoting digestion. They are especially effective for people with gastric acid deficiency, bloating after eating, and constipation. The amino acids such as serine, glycine, proline, and glutamine in fresh plum flesh have a diuretic and detumescent effect, and have an auxiliary therapeutic effect on liver cirrhosis.

Plums contain a variety of nutrients, which have the effect of beautifying and lubricating the skin. The antioxidant content in plums is surprisingly high, and it can be called a "super fruit" that fights aging and prevents diseases.

Cherry is a cherry that is directly translated as "cherry" in Guangdong and Hong Kong. It is also known as wedge peach, peach, red cherry, happy peach, boutique peach, plum peach, peach, cliff honey, etc. But it does not refer to the small, red, thin-skinned Chinese cherries, but the large, thick-skinned cherries produced in American countries such as the United States, Canada, and Chile. China has also introduced cherry trees, but it has not yet reached a large scale.

Apart from the similar color, they are different in every way. Plums are very small, while cherries are like cherries. The difference is not a little bit.
