You might be wondering what durian is all about. So let me tell you that durian is nothing but a unique tropical fruit and is very popular in Southeast Asia. No one can deny the fact that durian is a fruit that is high in its nutritious value. This tropical fruit is distinguished by its huge size, hard outer shell, and spiky shell. Mainly durian is used in sweet as well as savory dishes. Most of the individual has a question with them as to how does a durian test? So let me tell you that the flavor of durian is described as tasting almonds, caramel, cheese, and garlic altogether.

What Is The Health Benefit Of Durian?

You will be amazed to know that almost the entire part of the durian plant is used as the traditional Malaysian medicine to treat illnesses like jaundice, high fever, and skin condition. Mentioned below are some other health benefits of durian as well. They are:

• Prevent Heart Diseases

It has been observed that several compounds that are present in durian help to reduce the cholesterol level in the human body. In addition to all this, it also reduces the chances of hardening of arteries.

• Reduce The Risk Of Cancer 

The antioxidants present in it may neutralize the free radicals that promote cancer. Mainly it is helpful to prevent the breast cancer cell from spreading.

• Reduce Blood Sugar 

You might not be aware of the fact that this plant has a lower glycemic index, also known as GI than various tropical fruits. This means that the chances of blood sugar level going high decreases.

If you also want to take the entire benefit of durian then you need to consume it on a regular interval. As mentioned earlier that durian is bigger so it’s quite normal that you will have some leftover durian after eating it. Thus, the best way by which you can opt for durian preservation (การ เก็บ ทุเรียน, which is the term in Thai) is to wrap the fruit in cling wrap and foil. Once that is done then you will have to seal them in a zipper bag before you can store them in a freezer. Here, you need to keep one thing in your mind that freezing will keep the durian preserved for a longer duration rather than refrigerating it. In addition to this, the chances of getting the smell contaminated with other food decreases.
