Take care of your heart and stomach
Dr. Pramod Anand Tiwari of 'Babe's Ayurvedic Medical College and Hospital', Punjab, said that Sapodilla is a very beneficial fruit. It not only helps in keeping the heart healthy, but also keeps the digestive system fine. Consumption of Sapodilla also provides relief from problems like gas, stomach irritation, pain, constipation and diarrhea.
Especially beneficial in summers
Vaidya experts believe that Sapodilla helps in drying up boils and pimples that occur in summer and keeps the body temperature balanced. This sweet fruit has anti-inflammatory properties, which provide relief from inflammation in the body. The abundant calcium present in Sapodilla strengthens the bones and helps in removing weakness of the body. Also, it is beneficial in increasing immunity and controlling blood pressure.
Caution is also necessary
Although Sapodilla is beneficial for health, its consumption is not suitable for all people. Especially diabetic patients should be careful while eating it. Some people may also be allergic to fruits, so it is not right to eat Sapodilla without consulting a doctor. Actually, elements like latex and tannin are found in it, which can increase the sugar level. Therefore, people suffering from diabetes are advised to avoid its consumption.
