Dragonfruit, also known as pitaya, is a vibrantly colored tropical fruit native to Central America but widely cultivated in Southeast Asia. Its striking appearance includes a pink or yellow skin with green spines and a flesh that can be white, red, or purple, dotted with tiny edible black seeds. Dragonfruit is rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber, making it beneficial for boosting immunity, promoting digestion, and supporting skin health. It also contains magnesium and iron, essential for energy production and oxygen transport in the body. With a mild, subtly sweet flavor, dragonfruit is commonly enjoyed fresh, in smoothies, or as a topping for salads and desserts. Naturally low in calories and fat, it’s a healthy addition to most diets, though its sugar content should be consumed in moderation by those watching their blood sugar levels.
