If a friend hadn’t given me some cactus fruit to eat, I don’t think I would have known that cactus has fruits, let alone that cactus fruits are such nutritious fruits. Its fruit is similar to the red heart dragon fruit, both have red hearts, but it is smaller than the dragon fruit and has a slightly bitter taste. Prickly pear fruit is the most nutritious and valuable part of the cactus.

Research has shown that cactus fruit can promote the proliferation and regeneration of normal fiber cells in the human body, which is very helpful for the healing of internal and epidermal wounds in the body. So for a period of time, cactus fruits were very popular in the circle of friends, including oil extracted from cactus seeds and so on. The main effect is to heal wounds and remove scars.

Regular consumption of cactus fruit has the following effects:

1. It can promote the movement of qi and blood in the human body, and is suitable for treating blood stasis syndrome and promoting qi and blood circulation.
