Java apple is a tropical fruit. It is a cone-shaped, slightly watery fruit. It looks like a pear, white as wax. This fruit is also known as "Rose apple," "Water apple," "Wax apple," "Wax jambu," and "Jamaican apple." In my country, it is called "Jamrul."

✅ Have you eaten this fruit before? What benefits have you noticed after eating this fruit?

---

Yes, I have eaten this fruit before. After eating this fruit, we feel more hydrated. And, our skin remains safe from skin infections, as it's a good source of anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties.

Besides these benefits, there are also many other health benefits of this fruit that cannot be easily noticed, but these benefits are crucial. Such as:

• It is very good for the heart. It contains phytochemicals, including epicatechin, that contribute to lower blood pressure and minimize the risk of heart attack and heart disease.

• As it contribute to lower blood pressure, it also helps to reduce the risk of strokes.

• It is a good source of vitamin C, vitamin A, and other active organic compounds that help to prevent the growth of tumors and minimize the risk of cancerous disease.

• It is also a good source of antioxidants, which detoxify our body and boost our immune system.

• Java apple contains jambosine, which helps to block or regulate the conversion of starch into sugar. So this fruit is very conducive for diabetic patients and for those who are at risk of developing this condition.

• Java apples contain a lot of fiber, which is very conducive to our digestive system. It protects the body from constipation. Moreover, its seeds have been used as medicine to prevent diarrhea and dysentery.
