            November 24, 2019

            Today we continue our sporadic series where we feature popular natural herbs, fruits and vegetables consumed in Jamaica. Many of these foods are undervalued and the Jackfruit is no exception. So far, we looked at the guinep, which is super nutritious. Many don’t eat it because it is stainy. We also looked at the avocado which is extremely popular here in Jamaica. Still, some do not eat it because it contains fat. Fortunately, not all fats are bad and the avocado contains the healthiest fat in the world and is on many Top 10 list of healthiest fruits in the world.

            Health Benefits of Jackfruit

            The Jackfruit too, is snubbed because of its stains and annoying odour. However, unknowing to most of us, the giant fruit is full of nutritious isoflavones, lignans, saponins, and phytonutrients which provide anti-cancer benefits.

            Curated From Central Readers

            There is a natural way to improve colon cancer with the help of one fruit named jackfruit. It grows in tropical parts and people use it in dishes.

             

            Colon cancer prevention

            The fruit is loaded with isoflavones, lignans, saponins, and phytonutrients which provide anti-cancer benefits. They are able to prevent the free radicals which are harmful and develop cancer and many other chronic diseases.

            Phytonutrients

            The phytonutrients in Jackfruit are effective in preventing and treating stomach ulcers which could be benign but ultimately turn malignant. Jackfruits improve the condition. Plant and vegetarian food are a rich source of phytonutrients that fight cancer.

            Phytonutrients can be sourced only from plant-based foods and they provide lots of benefits. There are studies conducted in order to learn how those 3 phytonutrients help in preventing and fighting cancer.

            Saponins

            These ingredients are anti-cancer agents and can prevent colon cancer. According to a study (Journal of Nutrition 1995), saponins show colon cancer preventative properties.

            There is one more study where these phytonutrients have been found to induce mitotic arrest in the case of leukemia cells. The study also found that it helped in some cases to cause remission.

            Saponins were found to react to the outer layers of cancer cells. They bound the cells and prevented their further growth.

            Lignans and isoflavones

            These nutrients are phytonutrients which bind to the receptors like estrogens. The help in reducing endometrial cancer risks. Such study has been published in the journal of the National Cancer Institute in 2006. The study involving 500 women observed that those who consumed jackfruit a natural cancer killer were found to have reduced rates of cancer risk in comparison to those that didn’t.

            Protection of cellular DNA

            Jackfruit contains antioxidants which help in protecting the cellular DNA against direct damage from free oxygen radicals. Moreover, it assists in preventing induced mutations. It is also rich in fiber and has a unique form working together to clean the colon, removing toxins from the digestive tract and reducing the risks of colon cancer.

            Jackfruit strengthens the immune system

            This fruit is packed with vitamin C and simple sugars which strengthen the immunity. A study was conducted on mice and included the analysis of the immune-boosting properties of the sugars in jackfruit pulp. The researchers found out that the fruit contains polysaccharides which assist in improving phagocytic cell function.

            Nutritional values of jackfruit

            If you want to improve your digestive system and reduce the risks of colorectal cancer you have to add this fruit into your diet. This is why you should do that:

            Jackfruit contains low amounts of saturated fats, sodium, and cholesterol;
            1 cup of jackfruit has 155 calories and 4 of them are from fat;
            1 cup of it will supply you with more than 11% of the daily fiber allowance;
            The simple sugars are amazing for your health;
            It contains magnesium, manganese, potassium, zinc, iron, calcium, phosphorus, copper, and selenium;
            It is loaded with vitamin C, A, niacin, riboflavin, folate and thiamine;
            The fruit has been used in Chinese medicine for eliminating the effects of alcohol.
