DRAGON FRUIT, FULL OF NUTRIENTS

Yesterday my husband bought 2 dragon fruits from the market. At that moment it  came to my 

mind to share with you the benefits of dragon fruits. And so I am writing this blog.

Dragon fruit is one type of cactus also known as Honolulu queen, whose flower only open at night.

Today it is grown all over the world but this plant is native to southern Mexico and Central America.

It goes by name strawberry pear also.

Its taste is like a combination of kiwi and pear.

It is a source of iron, magnesium and fiber and so it is highly nutrient dense fruit.

IT CONTAINS:

a)      Low calorie

b)      Several antioxidants, these are compound that protects your cells from free radicals( unstable molecules which are the cause of chronic diseases)

c)       Vitamin C (rejuvenate the skin)

Dragon fruit reduces the risk of heart disease 

Protect good cholesterol.

Protect brain health.

It is low calorie fruit that contains less sugar and less carbohydrate than any other tropical fruit.

 

HOW TO  EAT: The selection of bright red dragon fruit is necessary. Slice it with sharp knife to eat 

the fruit out of the skin and scoop out the pulp. You may include it in fruit salad with another fruit or 

simply slice it up and eat as it is.

Though it is slightly expensive than any other fruit but its food value helps you to protect from diseases.

 So start eating regularly dragon fruit.

Happy to share you

Thank you.
