Fruits That Can Safely Replace Drugs

For every ailment drugs are prescribed and most drugs have side effects. Those with high amount of bad cholesterol drugs that have niacin are prescribed but this drug too has many side effects.  I have a fruit in my garden that is loaded with Niacin. A bit of research can help us find natural foods that could take place of these drugs and these natural foods have no side effects.  With online shopping facility one can get any natural from any part of the world.  Or even gtrow what can be easily grown in one’s garden.

They call my garden the Garden of Eden because I have tried to plant every kind of fruit that grows in our area. We have mangoes, jackfruit, sapota, figs, bell fruit, star fruit, star goose berry, cherries, mulberies, pappaya, egg fruit and pineapple

This blog is about Egg Fruit. Its real name is Canistel. Canistel has got its name as egg fruit for the simple reason that when it ripens the fruit tastes exactly like the sweetened yolk of of a boiled egg.

The fruit has seeds which could be sown for creating saplings. The tree is of medium height and has leaves that resemble the mango leaf.

Many do not like it as it has a particular aroma not quite welcoming.

We have to keep a watch on the fruits as, if they are over ripe they will burst on the tree and fall down. We pluck them when they are well matured and keep them for a few days until they change colour. The fruits are seasonal and the tree yields once a year. .

Canistal is an ingredient in several dishes. It can be used to make desserts such as puddings.

Canistel has great medicinal value. It contain niacin which controls the bad cholesterol – ldl.

This link will take you to Canistel where everything is written in detail.

    • A well researched article about health benefits of fruits especially about egg fruit. Nowadays there is high demand for organic products including fruits as awareness has increased among the people about the negative effects of medication. But people still continue using them as they are used to allopathic medication. I have come across some families which are used to other forms of treatment like Ayurveda, Unani, Siddha and others. These medicines take time but the remedy is permanent whereas allopathy has instant results but with negative results in the long run. When we buy fruits it is preferable to but fruits which are available in plenty as it is their season. They will be fresh and healthy. I think your garden gives you a regular supply of good fruits all through the year.

    • I always have bumper crops not knowing what to do with them as there is no market here for our produce. But we enjoy these fruits which get ripe naturally unlike what one gets in shops.
