Also known as graviola, guyabano, and guanabana, soursop is by far my most favorite tropical fruit. If you have never tried it before it tastes a lot like a custard apple but with fewer seeds. It has a soft, creamy structure. That's why we often call it our vegan yogurt!
Next to being incredibly delicious it has superfruit-healing properties and is a high-antioxidant food due to the high levels of vitamin C, B vitamins, calcium, phosphorous and it even has some iron too. It is great for your eyes, can treat infections and even shows promise as a potential cancer-fighting food.
Some sources claim that certain compounds in the soursop plant are a miraculous natural cancer cell killer, 10,000 times stronger than chemotherapy. Also, Soursop fruit extract is claimed to slow the spread of cancer or make traditional cancer therapies work better.
