Longans, often referred to as "dragon's eye" due to their translucent white flesh encased by a thin, light brown peel, are small fruits native to Southeast Asia. Closely related to lychees, they are commonly used in Chinese cuisine, desserts, and beverages, as well as enjoyed fresh. Longans are low in calories and packed with vitamin C, which aids in boosting immunity and skin health. They also contain antioxidants that help combat oxidative stress and support overall well-being. Rich in minerals such as potassium and magnesium, longans contribute to heart and muscle health. Additionally, they provide small amounts of dietary fiber, promoting digestive health. While their natural sugars make them sweet and satisfying, moderation is key to managing sugar intake. With their refreshing flavor and nutrient profile, longans are a delightful and healthy addition to a balanced diet.
