In addition, mangosteen is a cold fruit, and people with deficiency and cold constitution can eat less, but not more. Do not eat with cold and raw foods such as watermelon, soybean milk, beer, Chinese cabbage, mustard, bitter gourd, melon and lotus leaf soup. If you accidentally eat too much, you can cook ginger tea with brown sugar to solve it. Because mangosteen is the queen of fruits and the coldest fruit.
Mangosteen pulp contains 16.8% soluble solids, 0.63% citric acid, and other vitamins B 1, B2, C4 and minerals, which has the functions of reducing dryness, dispelling cold and relieving fever. Therefore, mangosteen is not only delicious, but also has the effect of reducing fire, which can overcome the heat of durian. In Thailand, people regard durian mangosteen as "the fruit of husband and wife". If durian gets angry after eating too much, eating a few mangosteens can relieve it.
In addition, mangosteen is rich in protein and lipid, which has a good nourishing effect on the body, and has a good nourishing effect on weakness, malnutrition and illness.
Extended data:
When choosing mangosteen, you must choose fresh fruits with green stems and soft shells. When picking, you can gently press the shell with your fingers. If the shell is too hard, even if you press it hard, it will not make the epidermis sag, indicating that Mangosteen loses too much water and cannot be eaten. If the shell is soft and elastic, mangosteen is fresh and suitable for eating. You can also choose by observing the color of the fruit stalk and shell. The pedicel of fresh mangosteen is green and the shell is bright and shiny.
