Tropical fruits

Bananas, mangoes, pineapples, passion fruits, guavas, and jackfruit are examples of tropical fruits that thrive in tropical or subtropical regions. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the World Health Organisation (WHO) recommend these fruits for a well-balanced diet. They can also help prevent diabetes, cardiovascular problems, and even some types of cancer.

Many tropical fruits are great sources of minerals like potassium, manganese, copper, and magnesium in addition to being high in antioxidants, fiber, and vitamins. One of the most popular tropical fruits, bananas are rich in potassium, magnesium, and manganese among other nutrients. To enhance your intake of minerals, vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants, try adding some frozen tropical fruit to your smoothies or eating fresh tropical fruit in oatmeal, yogurt, or salads.
