DURIANS CAN LOWER YOUR  CHOLESTEROL - Also Good for Treating Jaundice and
Fever.
Durian is a fruit more popularly known in Asian countries. This odd looking
fruit may have strong unpleasant smell but amazingly, there are many health
benefits of durian. The center of durian is soft like custard and it is very
juicy and delicious. But sadly, because of the strong odor of this fruit, it
is not allowed in many airlines and hotels so that a lot of tourists are
hesitant to buy the fruit. Most fruits are picked from the tree when ready
for harvest but the durian fruit is unique because you have to wait until it
falls to the ground before you can harvest it.

Some of the great health benefits of durian include treatment of jaundice,
healing of fever and reducing cholesterol. Eating durian can help the body
in producing white blood cells because it is rich in iron. If your body has
enough amounts of white blood cells, you develop a stronger immune system to
fight infections. Durian also has lots of antioxidants. It contains Vitamin
B, Vitamin C as well as Vitamin E. Antioxidants play a vital role in slowing
the aging process of the body. Antioxidants are also responsible in keeping
a healthy and young looking skin.

One of the amino acids found in durian is Tryptophan. It controls the
serotonin level in our body. It is important that the level of serotonin is
kept in control because this hormone is responsible in regulating our
emotions particularly that of happiness. People who are under depression and
are temperamental have low level s of serotonin. Eating durian provides the
body with tryptophan which means boosting the serotonin level of the body in
the process.

Durian fruit may have unpleasant odor but it tastes great. And when you eat
durian, you will not just enjoy the sweet taste of this fruit but also the
health benefits that it brings. And one more thing, you don't just get
physical health benefits in eating durian but you get to enjoy emotional
health benefits as well.
