With 9.78g of sugar per 100g (20% DV) and only 1.3g fiber, this puree delivers a rapid glucose load. The lack of fat and protein (0.14g and 0.31g per 100g) means no slowing of absorption, so eating it daily can cause repeated insulin surges, increasing risk of insulin resistance over time.
At 0.31g protein per 100g, this food is nearly protein-free. If it replaces other protein sources, daily consumption could lead to muscle loss, weakened immunity, and poor wound healing, especially in children or elderly who rely on it as a meal staple.
Each 100g provides 141mg potassium (3% DV) and 87.14g water. Potassium supports nerve signaling and muscle contraction, and the high water content aids hydration. However, the amount is too small to meaningfully impact daily needs unless consumed in large volumes.
Magnesium (5mg, 1% DV), phosphorus (11mg, 1% DV), and zinc (0.05mg) are negligible. Daily reliance on this food would fail to meet needs for bone health, enzyme function, and immune support, potentially leading to deficiencies if not compensated elsewhere.
Verdict
Eating this tropical fruit medley daily is fine as a snack or dessert, but it's not a nutritional staple. Pair it with protein and healthy fats to balance blood sugar and meet nutrient needs.
⚠️ Who Should Avoid
- People with diabetes or prediabetes
- Infants or toddlers on a puree-only diet (due to low protein and high sugar)
