Nutritional value of agbalumo

According to an article which was published on pricepally.com Toluwalase "Nate" Kadiri, the African star apple, also known as agbalumo has a lot of nutritional benefits.

He wrote:

"The African star apple is a small fruit with a reddish color. But what it lacks in size, it makes up for in nutritional value. It’s richer in vitamin C and ascorbic acid than oranges. It’s also rich in calcium, iron, phosphorus, and iron. The African star apple is a low-calorie, fiber-rich fruit. As a result, it promotes weight loss. Dietary fiber promotes weight loss by preventing overheating, making you feel full, and reducing your appetite for food. Lack of fiber and fluids leads to constipation, the infrequent release of stools for weeks or longer. But the African cherry supplies the body with fiber and water to fight constipation."

How much is the African star apple?

According to the blog, the 25 pieces of the African star apple can be purchased for N875.
