Durian is considered a healthy fruit packed with multi-nutrients provided the person who eats it doesn't have any chronic conditions like diabetes and cardio-vescular diseases. Moderate among of durian is good, same goes to other foods. Too much or too little will not do any good to the body. Last but not least, Banana is no longer the representative of Potassium but Durian. Even the doctor said potassium level in urine is high after having durian.

It is true what she says. That is why eating a little Durian is better for you, than eating a lot. Plus, eating Durian just as it is starting to ripen will give a firmer fruit, than ripe, which will be soft or even mushy (over ripe). So it depends how you like to eat it. Firm, soft, or very ripe. I always choose firm. And do not give Durian to the elderly, they may end up in hospital with a fever.

❤❤❤❤ There are so many different types of durians because DURIANS MUST BE CROSS FERTILIZED IN ORDER TO PRODUCE A FERTILE SEED. If you grow a plant from say a D24 from seed, you would not get a D24 that is exactly the same as the parent because it is already cross fertilized by pollen from another plant. The only way to get the same characteristic is to bud graft or marcot the plant. 😂😂😂😂

I think the study is flawed in the sense that the calorie was measured according to the number of seeds. Given that MSW is known for its relatively smaller seeds compared to its counterparts, it certainly bears highly amount of flesh, which explains its higher calorie content. Frankly speaking, nobody would consume durian for its nutritional value, as you would rather spend on multivitamins that cost significantly lesser per serving to acquire the same amount of nutrients. In contrast, I would say 99% of us who consume durian are more worried about our calorie consumption. For a fair comparison, the best way is to measure the calorie based on the same weight of the flesh from each species. It's common sense, if you consume 1 seed of MSW, you'll need to consume more than 1 seed of other species.
