6 Amazing Health Benefits Of Soursop by hitng2: 1:38pm On Aug 09, 2019
1. Relieves Respiratory Distress

If you are struggling with a cough, cold, or other forms of the respiratory ailment, then soursop’s anti-inflammatory properties can help clear out your airways, relieve congestion, and soothe irritation. Soursop is a reliable way to eliminate phlegm and mucus, where many pathogens can live. By reducing inflammation of the nasal cavities and respiratory tracts, it can also speed healing.

2. Treats Insomnia


Soursop tea has been used as a stress relieving strategy for centuries. There are certain anti-inflammatory and soothing properties of soursop that make it very effective if you are suffering from excessive stress and anxiety.

Stress hormones in the body can be detrimental and can mess with your natural metabolic cycles, as well as your sleep schedule. If you’re suffering from insomnia or restless sleep, soursop tea is a wise choice.

3. Skin Care


You can make the seeds of the soursop fruit into a powder, which can then be formulated into a skin astringent, helping you reduce lines and wrinkles, and improving the appearance of age spots and blemishes.

Apply this paste to the affected areas regularly and enjoy a healthier skin, while also protecting yourself from bacterial and microbial infections.

4. Prevents Cancer

This fruit has been directly linked to cancer prevention and a reduction in the size of tumors.

They can apparently cut off blood flow to foreign or non-normal cellular growths, and have already been positively associated with treating breast, pancreatic, prostate, and lung cancers.

5. Boosts Immunity

Protecting the immune system is one of the most important components of a healthy diet and fitness regimen. Adding a bit of soursop fruit to your diet, either through refreshing beverages or desserts, can positively impact your overall health.

Rich in vitamin C, this fruit stimulates the production of white blood cells, while the concentration of antioxidants helps to neutralize free radicals and prevent chronic disease.

6. Improves Gastrointestinal Health

Being rich in vitamin C, soursop was used for many years as a natural remedy for scurvy and dysentery.

The juice of the soursop fruit can also be a very effective diuretic as it can cleanse the gastrointestinal tract and remove excess toxins and salts from the body.

Its anti-inflammatory components, including the alkaloids and quinolones, can reduce parasites in the gut and alleviate any pain or irritation in the stomach or colon.

Re: 6 Amazing Health Benefits Of Soursop by OpinionCounts(m): 4:46pm On Aug 09, 2019
I love this fruit so much and I consume it a lot. But the only problem is that it is very expensive. It ranges between 600 to 1500 for one depending on the size.

Thanks for your apt observation. It is impossible for Nigerians to recommend a fruit or drug without making mention of its sex-enhancing properties.
