If the skin is sore and young people have acne, they can eat mangosteen raw or make soup with mangosteen. After eating durian, eating mangosteen has the effect of clearing away heat. Mangosteen is rich in cellulose, which will absorb water and swell in the stomach. Excessive consumption will cause constipation. If you accidentally eat too much, you can boil ginger tea with brown sugar to solve it. In addition, because mangosteen is the coldest fruit.

Matters needing attention in buying mangosteen
Mangosteen with hard shell, no matter how the stall owner emphasizes that it will not affect the quality of pulp, should be carefully bought, and the hard shell is enough to explain the "aging color decline" of mangosteen.
From the anatomical point of view, the mangosteen shell is a complete peel, which is equivalent to what we usually refer to as the "skin and meat" of apples. The edible "pulp" of mangosteen is actually some appendages (arils) wrapped in seeds. When mangosteen is still in the tree, the fruit shell and pulp are all supplied with water from the tree. Once they are invited down from the tree, they are like two brothers who have separated from each other.
The shell of mangosteen looks thick, but in fact it is loose, and the dense pores between it make the water contribute to the air quickly. More importantly, the combination of the shell and the pulp is not so close. When the shell loses water (the most obvious feature is the hardening of the shell), the pulp can stand by and watch. However, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, and the hard shell after dehydration will not protect the "content" inside like the walnut shell. Air swarms in from the gap above, and mangosteen fruits like to gasp (breathing, consuming sugar, and producing substances such as acids and aldehydes that affect taste), and the process of deterioration is very fast. In addition, pectinase in mangosteen pulp will destroy pectin that maintains pulp morphology. After picking, pectinase began to work hard and its activity gradually increased. Add foreign oxygen until the pulp is yellow and rusty red and can't be swallowed.
In order to keep mangosteen young for a few more days, low temperature is indispensable: at low temperature, it can reduce the loss of water in the shell, reduce the respiration of the fruit, and of course reduce the activity of some pectinases. In addition, sealing as much as possible to avoid the invasion of oxygen is also a key to preservation. Generally speaking, putting mangosteen in a sealed bag and then putting it in the refrigerator can prolong the enjoyment time.
What season is mangosteen fruit?
Mainly in summer. The fruit ripens in May-10, and the yield is higher in August-10.
May to September is the season when mangosteen is abundant, so we should choose the medium and small ones. The pedicel of fresh mangosteen is green, and the shell is soft and elastic when pinched. After opening, the meat inside is pure white. If you can pinch the shell with your thumb and forefinger, it means it is mature. If the shell is as hard as a stone, it is probably inedible. If there is a lot of yellow juice in Goldie's place, she decides not to buy it. See how many petals there are in mangosteen's ass, and how many petals there are in it. Mangosteen shells are easy to dry in the wind, so it is recommended to buy as much as you eat. Cold storage is the main way of preservation, and it needs to be stored in the refrigerator. Usually, after five days of storage, the flavor goes from bad to worse. It can only be stored for ten days at most.
