Dragonfruit Juice Concentrate
Dragonfruit or Pitaya is the fruit of several cactus species, most importantly of the genus Hylocereus (sweet pitayas). These fruits are commonly known as dragon fruit – cf. Chinese huǒ lóng guǒ 火龍果/火龙果 "fire dragon fruit" and lóng zhū guǒ "dragon pearl fruit", Vietnamese thanh long (sweet dragon), Indonesian and malaysia buah naga "dragon fruit", Lao: mark mang gohn "dragon fruit". Other vernacular names are strawberry pear or nanettikafruit.
Particularly red-skinned pitayas are a good source of Vitamin C. Pitayas are rich in fiber and minerals, notably phosphorus and calcium. Red pitayas seem to be richer in the former, yellow ones in the latter. The seeds are rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, and in particular Red Pitayas contain very little saturated fat. Pitahayas also contain significant quantities of phytoalbumin antioxidants, which prevent the formation of cancer-causing free radicals.
In Taiwan, diabetics use the fruit as a food substitute for rice and as a source of dietary fibre.
Pitaya supposedly increases excretion of heavy metal toxins and lowers cholesterol and blood pressure. Eaten regularly, it is credited with alleviating chronicrespiratory tract ailments.
