Question, What Is Jackfruit and Should We Be Eating It?

Following food trends can be exhausting. I’m tired of wasting money on “healthy food” that never delivers the healthy result I’m looking for. So, in the case of jackfruit, let’s explore if this trend is truly beneficial to our well-being.

Taste?

Taste is the most important factor in this case. Jackfruit’s flavor has been described as a sweet cross between a mango and a pineapple, with the texture of pulled pork. Hmmm… interesting.

Illness?

Jackfruit is plentiful in vitamin C, which will give your immune system the boost it needs.

Digestion problems?

This fruit is high in fiber. Fiber will assist with moving food smoothly through your digestive system and relieving any constipation.

Old bones?

Your bones need a sufficient level of magnesium to work properly. Jackfruit has plenty of magnesium to share.

High blood pressure?

Potassium is abundant in jackfruit and will lower blood pressure.

High Cholesterol?

Vitamin B6, which is found in jackfruit will provide your body with energy. It will also lower the bad cholesterol that slows the body down.

After further review of the evidence in the case of The Jackfruit vs. The People, the verdict if we should be eating it is… Hell yes! This fruit is a superfood that pretty much does it all. I’m joining the jackfruit trend! How about you?
