Champion Fruits! Four of Guyana’s widely consumed fruit in global top ten

Grapefruit

While the consumption of fruits, on the whole, is generally regarded as a health-enhancing practice, not all fruits are “created equal,” so to speak… and while various interest groups have attached their own nutritional ratings to what they regard as “the world’s healthiest fruits,” the line-up of the ‘‘heavy hitters’ is, in large measure, near identical and the ‘most healthy’ fruits consistently bear familiar names.

 The Stabroek Business’ research on the subject which took it to five research entities, not only discovered that on the whole, there is a widespread agreement amongst researchers as to which fruit are on the global nutrition leader board but also that on the whole, Guyana grows, eats, and in many instances, consumes, more than half of the fruit globally regarded as world-beaters in terms of their nutritional content.
