Graviola (Annona muricata), also known as Soursop, is a small evergreen tree with many bioactive compounds, that is native to the Amazon Rainforest and other tropical areas of the Americas.
?We can readily find it around our homes or buy from fruit vendors. ??
? It produces a large, heart-shaped edible fruit which is green in colour, with white flesh.??
This plant has a long history in ancient herbal remedies and treatments, with the leaf, stem, root and bark all being used traditionally??
? Since the ancient times, it has become known that Graviola is rich in vitamins and minerals, all which contribute to the health benefits it provides??
?Source of antioxidants??
?Not only does Graviola contain a bounty of vitamins and minerals, but the stem, bark and leaves are rich in antioxidants, which help the body fight against free radical damage to cells.
*This is why it’s a strong killer of cancerous cells in the body*
“`Continuous eating of this plant materials will protect you from cancer and other deadly diseases“`
*(Some research have it that Graviola is 10,000 times more potent than chemotherapy)*

?Helps Regulate Blood Glucose
Certain ingredients in Graviola include phytochemicals, which may help to regulate blood glucose levels and prevent spikes.
Maintaining a healthy blood sugar level is important because it can help protect the vessels that supply blood to important organs, such as the heart.
?Contributes to Energy levels
Graviola contains Vitamins B1 and B2, and Magnesium, each of which contribute to normal energy levels and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. If you’re flagging, they’re a much healthier alternative to unnatural sources of caffeine (e.g. energy drinks).
?Helps support the immune system
A healthy immune system is essential for helping the body to fight any nasties and keep illnesses at bay.
Vitamin B1 and Zinc (both of which can be found in Graviola) can give the immune system a helping hand.
?Assists muscle function
The number of muscles in the human body can range anywhere between 640 to 850 – that’s a lot of muscles to support! We use our muscles all the time, even when we don’t know it, so making sure they have the support they need is essential.
?Graviola contains Potassium and Calcium, both of which contribute to the maintenance of normal muscle function?
?Fruit vs Leaf
While all parts of the plant offer significant health benefits, those found in the fruit and the leaf differ slightly??
? As a rule of thumb, Graviola fruit is said to be high in vitamins and minerals, and beneficial for bone health??
? Keep an eye out for
vegicaps containing powder extract from the concentrated juice of the Graviola fruit, often sold as supplements?
?Graviola leaf is said to be high in antioxidants.
? It may also help contribute to the reduction of inflammation and free radicals?
So instead drinking processed tea at home all the time, we can actually boil the leaves*??
?Serve the hot liquid extract with milk and honey, it is far much better ?
Points to Note ?
?Most drugs are produced from plant materials and they are usually in concentrated form.
?This means that they extract the active ingredients and concentrate it artificially.
?This is why when taking home made remedies, you need to be patient with yourself especially for the results.
?We are taking it in the dilute and natural form. This is actually the best way to take them..
?What I advice is to add some of these healthy plants to our daily diet ??
?We shouldn’t wait till we have one problem before we start looking for the best plant to call on. ??
?Most times when the problem arrives, we won’t be patient enough to see the desired results because of the damage our body already has??????
What then is the best way.:
?Prevention is the best treatment ??
?Add these beautiful gift of Nature to your smoothie at home. ??
?Instead of getting carbonated drinks, make your fruit juice or salad at home?
? Much more, maintain a healthy diet rich in plant materials.
Yes we can all live fine without synthetic drugs??
