Star fruit is good for health but you need to be careful when eating it

Low calories

Blackberries are especially beneficial for weight loss because they are low in calories. Therefore, we can enjoy this fruit without worrying about affecting our weight.

Rich in fiber

Blackberries are rich in fiber. Fiber helps the body feel full for a longer time and reduces the total amount of calories consumed. By helping to limit the consumption of extra calories, blackberries can aid in weight loss.

A study published in the Nutrients Journal found that a high-fiber diet can help with weight control.

Blood sugar control

Plums have a low glycemic index (GI), which helps regulate blood sugar levels, preventing insulin spikes and fat storage.

Rich in antioxidants

Blackcurrant fruit contains many antioxidants, which help fight free radicals in the body.

Free radicals released in the body can damage cells and lead to many health problems such as obesity, diabetes or cancer.

Promote metabolism

Blackcurrant fruit contains compounds such as gallic acid and ellagic acid. These are known to improve metabolic function.

Notes when eating star fruit

However, consuming too much of the fruit can cause side effects such as constipation due to its high tannin content.

Blackcurrant fruit may also increase acidity in the body, causing heartburn or indigestion in sensitive people.

Pregnant and lactating women should eat star fruit in moderation and should consult their doctor before consuming too much of it.

People with kidney disease should also avoid eating star fruit because they are rich in oxalates, which can aggravate kidney problems.
