FACTS ABOUT THE SOURSOP FRUIT

Soursop , also known graviola is a large fruit that has an oval shape, with spines on it and the back is green or lemon colour while the inside is cream, milky or white colour. It is native to the American tropics but also grows in other places like Africa though not common. It grows about 8 inches long and has 10 pounds weight. It grows in warm climates.

HOW SOURSOP IS EATEN

Soursop can be eaten raw, it can be made into fruit drinks, it can be made into smoothies, it can be made into candies and eaten, it can be used as ice cream flavourings, and also consumed as tea.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF SOURSOP FRUIT AND LEAVES

• Soursop can be used to treat different infections with viruses or parasites.

• It can be used to treat arthritis and rheumatism.

• It is high in vitamin C as one soursop fruit contains about 129 milligrams of vitamin C and it also contains antioxidants which is known to boost immune health.

• Soursop is rich in nutrients and contains vitamin B1, B2, B3.

• It supports digestion and stabilizes blood pressure.

• It aids weight loss and promotes healthy cholesterol.

• Very importantly, it prevents cell damage and the development of cancer. Some phytochemicals in soursop selectively kill cancer cells without destroying the good and healthy cells the way chemotherapy does.

• Soursop can also be said to cure inflammation, fever, cough, asthma, and many other things.

SIDE EFFECTS OF SOURSOP

Just as a thing has a good effect, it taken too much or without supervision, it also has bad effects.

• When taken excessively, it can lead to a drop in blood pressure.

• It may create nerve damage.

• Repeated use may cause liver and kidney toxicity.

CONCLUSION

Soursop fruits are very expensive because of its many benefits. In Nigeria, a small soursop fruit flies fur as much as 1000 naira, that is the current price of 5 steems. Sometimes, one doesn't need to run around spending money on medication, you only need to constantly eat the right fruit like soursop and the sickness will go. Eat one soursop today.
