Guyabano

Guyabano is a fruit with many names, each country seems to have its own name. What is generally the same is the positive comments about this fruit. The soursop or Guanabana as it is also called is a pear-like fruit that is slightly curved. The fruits can grow to about 20 x 35 cm. The outside is dark green and has curved spines. The flesh is snow-white and when fully ripe it has a very soft texture. The taste is fresh sweet and sour. When the fresh fruit is exposed to the air, it discolors quite quickly, just like a banana. The pulp contains several seeds that can be about 1 x 2 cm. The fruit is a family of Cherimoya, known in the Netherlands.

Medicinal use

The Guyabano fruit is known for its positive medical effects. For example, the leaves would have a positive influence on high blood pressure, and the pulp and juice could have a positive effect in the fight against cancer cells. However, the latter has never been fully medically proven, but the stories that circulate on the internet all appear to show an agreement.
