Seasonal ingredients that can enhance both flavor and impact. Especially, autumn seasonal produce is full of nutrients and boasts the best taste. Rich in essential nutrients that boost immunity, replenish stamina, and maintain health, it is responsible not only for appetite but also for health. Based on information from the American health media Health, here are six ingredients that are good to eat in the fall.

 

1. Apple

Apples are the freshest from late summer to fall, with September to October being the peak harvest period. There are various apple varieties, most of which contain abundant dietary fiber and antioxidants such as vitamins C and E, helping to boost immunity and overall health.

2. Pumpkin

Pumpkin is a winter squash variety, with its peak season from October to November. It is rich in vitamins A, C, and E, as well as minerals such as zinc, selenium, and iron, which have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial effects. Roasted pumpkin has a sweet flavor and can also be enjoyed as a wood-fired dish with duck.

 

3. 감

Persimmons are fruits mainly harvested in September and October, rich in vitamins A and C, which are good for eye health and immune function, and contain a moderate amount of potassium. Persimmons can be enjoyed fresh or used in cooking.

 

Sweet potato

Sweet potatoes, a representative ingredient of autumn, can be enjoyed fresh until March of the following year. Rich in vitamins A and C, as well as fiber, they are healthy complex carbohydrates. One medium-sized sweet potato contains approximately 100 calories, 23 grams of carbohydrates, and about 4 grams of fiber.

 

5. Stomach

Pears are most fresh from September to October, just like apples. Pears are rich in fiber, which helps with digestive and cardiovascular health. One medium-sized pear contains about 100 calories and over 5 grams of fiber, making it a good low-calorie snack. It is good to eat the fruit on its own or to add it to dishes for extra flavor.

 

6. Broccoli

Broccoli is in season from October to mid-November and is rich in nutrients such as potassium, calcium, iron, and vitamins C and K. Consuming broccoli can help improve digestive health, bone health, and reduce oxidative stress.
