    Thing is if you let the non astringent ones ripen they will sweeten up, a fuyu which is hard is closer to an apple tastwise, once it is soft, it is sweeter than honey so your non astringent ripened ones simply are in a different state of ripeness you can achive with non astringent ones as well! Love persimmons btw. have a tree (non astringent italian chioccolatino) in my Austrian garden.

    Jefferson Davis mother (Jane Cook) was also married to William Henry. William caught her , and Samuel in the act. Jane ran off with Samuel Davis. When William wanted to get a divorce, the courts had to find her to serve papers. She was living with, and married to Samuel Davis by the time they found her. They already had children together. She had 3 children by William Henry. One of her, and Williams children was still breast feeding when she ran off. I have only read the court papers out of Tennessee. I'm not sure why they had to hide that out of history books.

The twigs are thin like a American also. The Fuju I know isn’t grafted and I think the chocolate isn’t grafted either. They both look identical.

    @@TC-eb4wu Well they HAVE in the picture I'm referring to shown in your video. What is identified as being "Thomas Lincoln" looks nothing like Abraham Lincoln. His hair is not as dark (Abe had coal black hair), his build is stockier, his face is wider, his head is squarish as opposed to Abe's lean oblong head, and his lips are much thinner (Abe had a thick lower lip). The man in the photo resembles a distant photo of Dennis Hanks with his other cousin John Hanks, to whom there IS a resemblance. Since Nancy Hanks was apparently never photographed and had the same "dirt poor" farm background as her husband, it tends to make sense that NEITHER of them were ever photographed; as it seems they at least would have been for their wedding, as Abraham and Mary Todd were. And on the subject of his paternity, have you ever heard of a reference to a William Cessna being Abraham's father? I read in a book by Edwin Steers called "Lincoln Legends" or something like that that the Cessna family of Hardin County Kentucky (where Abraham was born) had a long tradition that "old man Cessna" was very horny and used to like to try to bed all the women in the County whether single or married and that Abraham was the result of one such liaison with Nancy Hanks. It was also from this family that the claim came that Thomas Lincoln's ballocks were too small for reproduction.

With intermittent fasting, you eat two meals daily, four hours apart. You eat nothing between meals. I do intermittent fasting five days a week, Monday thru Friday. My first meal is at noon. I eat out and eat whatever is on the menu, including dessert. If someone is watching their weight and gives me their dessert, I will eat it too. I will eat my second and last meal for the day four to six hours later. I will eat just about anything. Mostly fruit and vegetables. I will not eat anything that contains sugar or flour. I avoid boxed or packaged foods. I will not eat anything else until noon the next day.

    This will be confusing for some people since countries measure in different units. Fasting levels: 100 mg/dL is milligrams per deciliter. In other countries it is measured in mmol/L (millimoles per litre) You can divide mg/dL by 18 to get mmol/L or multiply mmol/L by 18 to get mg/dL. Currently a fasting level (8-10 hours without food) of 100 mg/dL or 5.5 mmol/L is considered normal. Anything down to 84 mg/dL whuch is 4.7 mmol/L is considered ok. But if you are achieving the lower end with medications be careful and consult your doctor. Now normally 2 hours after a meal you should be at 140 mg/dL which is 7.7 mmol/L or below. The gentleman in the first test in video was at 94 mg/dL which is 5.2 mmol/L and that is clearly very good. Bananas spike sugar levels, you do not need to spike sugar levels like that every day. So you Do need to avoid them in some respects. Insulin resistance is NOT MEASURED effectively through GLUCOSE monitoring. GLUCOSE remaining in the Blood is measured effectively through GLUCOSE monitoring. We ALL have some insulin resistance, some have a lot more than others where it has advanced and is dangerous. These are the tests you should have beyond just glucose monitoring -- HOMA-IR and C-Peptide.

    Fuyu and Jiro are so similar that some growers believe they are the same tree. Both have only female flowers. They are unusual because they produce fruit without pollination. Unpollinated fruit will be seedless. If there is a different persimmon variety nearby that has male flowers, the Fuyu and Jiro will have seeds. Seeded or unseeded, the fruit will be the same size and taste. There is no advantage to having a male tree nearby, unless you want seeds.
