My favorite fruit, and why you should consume it, by @vickyreal
Hello beautiful steemians, it's feels good to be here. I want to write about one of my favorite fruits.
INTRODUCTION
A fruit is a sweet and fleshy products of a tree that is eaten as fruit. It's contains essential nutrients needed for body growth,cells repairing and body maintenance.
MY FAVORITE FRUIT
One of my favorite fruit is called Arjuna or Arjun. It's is called locally by Nigerians as (5FINGER) because of its segmented body. Arjuna or 5FINGER is a fruit disregarded by many Nigerians because of lack of knowledge to the health benefits of it.
Arjuna is known to be grown mostly in India but is also found here in Nigeria. Because it's here in Nigeria, that's how I got to know about it and I want everyone here in steemit to know about it too.
Arjuna is a plant based tree. It's has medicinal properties like anti-inflammatory, antioxidants,and anti-microbial.
BENEFITS OF ARJUNA OR 5FINGER
- Arjuna helps to reduce the risk of heart
disease by strengthening the heart muscles
and dilatation of the blood vessels thereby leading to normal blood
pressure and heart rate. - Arjuna has antibacterial property that controls intestinal infection caused by micro-organisms thereby preventing excessive loss of water and electrolytes from the body(Diarrhea)
3.Arjuna helps to remove toxic remains in the body due to improper digestion. - It's improves fertility because of its rich source of antioxidants and zinc.
It also increases the overall body stamina.(Men take Note) - It also reduces high body temperature due to its antipyretic property. Source
PRECAUTION TO ARJUNA
- Pregnancy (especially during the first trimester).
- Breastfeeding
HOW TO EAT ARJUNA
Give the fruit a sweet crunchy bite, just like in this pics.
HOW TO GROW ARJUNA
The seeds found in the fleshy part of the fruit is grown to have Arjuna fruit tree. The seed is removed,and planted into a polythene bag containing sand. It's takes between 12 To 15 weeks or less to have a germinated Arjuna tree.
CONCLUSION
It is a nice fruit to consume, if you haven't tasted it before, please try do that.
