Why should you add red dragon fruit to your diet

Dragon fruit is a delicious and nutritious tropical treat that is perfect for snacking, adding to your favorite recipes, or simply enjoying it raw. It is a beautiful fruit with small black seeds in the flesh that grows on a cactus-like plant.

Dragon fruit is a source of betacyanin, vitamin C, and lycopene and it has a gently sweet, refreshing taste that pairs well with many different flavors. It is perfect for adding to smoothies or using as a healthy topping on your favorite dishes.

Studies show some potential health benefits of dragon fruit:

  • Thanks to its carotenoids and vitamin C, pitaya may help strengthen the immune system.
  • It contains oligosaccharides which have a prebiotic effect. The dragon fruit could therefore have a beneficial effect on the digestive system by promoting good bacteria.

According to Anthony William (the “Medical Medium”) red dragon fruit is one of the healthiest fruits on the planet. 

In his book "Liver Rescue" he writes: 

Red pitaya is the best superfood to heal your liver because it helps your liver produce cells faster so regeneration of the liver can occur. It's a fountain-of-youth fruit for the liver that slows down and stops liver aging by caring for its deep inner core, which in most cases succumbs to disease if left neglected for too long."

(This has not been scientifically proven, this is for your information, not a health recommandation.)

Mark and Mon are Jurassic Fruit partners in Thailand.

After developing a passion for healthy, living foods in the early 2000s, Mark moved from Germany to Sri Lanka, one of the world's fruit paradises. The problem: for him, Sri Lanka was too disorganized to organize fruit production and export.

So he decided to move to Thailand. He soon met Mon, a farmer's daughter and member of a network of small-scale producers. A few years later, they married and had a child. The problem in Thailand: the vast majority of growers - even the small ones - use chemicals extensively. They set up their own business and joined forces with Jurassic Fruit with a major goal in mind: to convert as many farmers as possible to organic farming in Thailand and help them add value to their produce, notably through Jurassic Fruit for Europe.

We deliver it to you ripe, ready to be eaten.

Most people love to eat the fruit by simply spooning it after cutting it in half.

You can also drink it in smoothies, for example following the delicious recipe of Anthony William:

Put in your blender:

  • red dragon fruit
  • bananas (can be replaced by papaya or mango),
  • wild blueberries 
  • and water

Enjoy!

The problem with the dragon fruit you usually find in supermarkets is that it is covered with harmful chemicals and tastes bland. The reason being that it has been harvested unripe and has been stored too long before consumption.
