Soursop Leaf Tea / Teh Durian Belanda

We hardly heard or never heard of people say their favourite fruit is Soursop.  I can understand for the fact that the taste of the soursop is always on the sour side, it is clear as it's named Sour-sop.

I personally will choose other type of fruits than soursop if it is not for its health properties.  The look and the shape of this fruit is not as appetizing too.  BUT, the health benefits of this fruit is enormous not just the fruit but the leaf too.

From attending a Musang King farming talk, my better half bought a packet of this soursop leaf tea.  Though both of these fruits have Durian in their names and spiky appearances, they are of totally different taste.  As we all know, Durians are sweet, creamy and full of fragrance unlike soupsop, it is sour and the smell just about right.

The smell of the tea bags are just like some kind of wood than leaves.

The health benefits of soursop tea are claimed to be able to :

a. aid in digestion
b. help weight loss
c. improve skin appearance
d. prevent cancer
e. protect heart health
f.  boost immune system
g. improve circulation

Certain health care providers would advise to drink any kind of tea in moderation because each individual reacts differently after taking natural food and drinks.  It is strongly advised that pregnant and breast feeding women refrain from drinking this tea.

Soursop tea is an additional choice of tea in our pantry besides the existing Sabah Tea, organic green tea,  Pansulin bitter melon complex powder drink and the bitter gourd drink.
