"I am like a JACKFRUIT. Hard and rude from outside, but sweet to the core inside."

Hello #steemhealthcare. This is @hae-ra, waving to all of you, fresh and sweet from Philippines. Today, I will share with you this one of my all time favorite fruit. The JACKFRUIT.

It is important to eat and have fruits all the way in order to boost the immune system since it is one of the source of vitamins and minerals that provide a wide range in health boosting antioxidants. Eating fruits can also reduce a person's risk of developing heart disease, cancer, inflammation, diabetes, and other kinds of sickness. And one of the best fruit that could provide all of these is jackfruit.

Jackfruit is one of my all time favorite fruit, and I am so lucky that we have this in the backyard. Since I was young, I already love to eat this fruit, without knowing that it has a lot of nutrients all the way. It is a healthful source of vitamin C, potassium, dietary fiber, and some other essential vitamins and minerals. According to the United States Department of Agriculture , a cup of raw, sliced jackfruit contains 157 calories.

As we can see, jackfruit is very hard all the way, it is not easy to eat this kind of fruit, coz you have to exert your effort first before you could able to eat it. But, if you're there, it is so refreshing after all. The smell that could relive your energy and the sweetness you could not able to resist.

Jackfruit is high in Vitamin A that is important for normal vision, the immune system, and health reproduction which also helps the heart, lungs, kidneys, and other organs work properly.

We have to stay healthy always and must boost our immune system especially that we are still facing the threat of Covid today.
