Fructose and glucose levels don't disagree between cultivated and wild carob. The embryo is rich in proteins (50%). The testa, or seed coat, contains cellulose, lignins, and tannins.
Carob products are consumed by humans in the form of dried, roasted. The pod has two main parts: the pulp accounts for 90% and the seeds 10% by weight. The flour of the carob embryo (seed) can also be used for human and animal nutrition. Carob pods are mildly sweet on their own, so they are used in powdered, chip or syrup form as an ingredient in cakes and cookies.

Raw plums are 87% water, 11% carbohydrates, 1% protein, and less than 1% fat. In a 100 gram amount, raw plums supply 46 calories and are a moderate source only of vitamin C (12% DV), with no other nutrients in significant content.
6:Prickly Pear-

Prickly Pear is a genus within the cactus family, Cactaceae. Prickly pears are called tuna (fruit), sabra, nopal.
It thrives in regions with mild winters having a protracted dry spell followed by hot summers with occasional rain and comparatively low humidity.

The fruit of prickly pears is edible, although it must be peeled carefully to remove the small spines on the outer skin before consumption.
Opuntia contains a variety of phytochemicals in variable quantities, such as polyphenols, dietary minerals, and betalains. In Mexican folk medicine, its pulp and juice are considered treatments for wounds and inflammation of the digestive and urinary tracts.

People who opt to discard the seeds forfeit nutritional benefits conveyed by the seed fiber and micronutrients.
The most voluminous phytochemicals in pomegranate juice are polyphenols, as well as the hydrolyzable tannins referred to as ellagitannins formed when ellagic acid and gallic acid bind with a carbohydrate to form pomegranate ellagitannins, also known as punicalagin. Compared to the pulp, the inedible pomegranate peel contains as much as three times the total amount of polyphenols.

Grapeseed oil from crushed seeds is employed in cosmeceuticals and skincare products. Grapeseed oil, including tocopherols (vitamin E) and high contents of phytosterols and polyunsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid, oleic acid, and alpha-linolenic acid.
Grapes are related to health for several centuries. They contain organic acids (tartaric, malic, citric, tannic), B group vitamins, vitamins P, PP, and C, calcium, carotene, magnesium salts, phosphorus, and potassium, as well as trace elements such as copper, iron, manganese, sulfur, and zinc.
Grapes are said to be beneficial for protecting against cardiovascular disease and, because of their potassium and glucose content, they are argued to be useful for the treatment of heart disease by strengthening muscle tone, improving heart function and having a positive impact on convalescence. It is also helpful to cure high blood pressure, menopause, varicose veins, high cholesterol, skin rashes, and urination problems. The grape cure is also prescribed for a decline in nutrition, especially with patients with early stages of tuberculosis, for diseases of the liver, kidneys, and lungs and for gout and secondary anemia and, in addition, for mental disease, nervous disorders, and sexual problems.
10:Chestnut-

The chestnuts are a bunch of eight or nine species of deciduous trees and shrubs in the genus Castanea, in the beech family Fagaceae.
They have very little protein or fat; their calories come principally from carbohydrates. Fresh chestnut fruits have about 180 Cal or kcal (800 kJ) per 100 g of edible parts, which is much lower than walnuts, almonds, other nuts, and dried fruit (about 600 kcal/100 g). Chestnuts contain little fat, largely unsaturated, and no gluten. Fresh chestnuts contain about 52% water by weight. Tannin is contained in the bark as well as in the wood, leaves, and seed husks.
The nuts can even be eaten candied, boiled, steamed, deep-fried, grilled, or roast in sweet or savory recipes. They can be used to stuff vegetables, poultry, fowl, and other edibles. They are present on the market as fresh, dried, ground, or canned (whole or in puree).
Chestnut buds have been listed as one of the 38 substances used to prepare Bach flower remedies, a kind of alternative medicine promoted for its effect on health. However, according to Cancer Research UK, "there is not any scientific proof to prove that flower remedies can cure, control or prevent any type of disease, including cancer". Chestnut extracts were evaluated through several biochemical assays showing evident antioxidant properties.
