Unique lucuma powder from NXTDRIED
1 Sep 2021Lucuma is considered a superfood due to its levels of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and fiber. It is one of the best natural ways to strengthen the immune system.
The pulp is between 69% to 82% of the whole fruit and it is very rich in vitamins such as niacin, thiamine, riboflavin and ascorbic acid. It also contains high levels of minerals such as calcium, phosphorus and iron, essentials to prevent anemia, cancer or strengthen the immune system as we know.
Lucuma also contains beta-carotene, an antioxidant that is known for slowing aging. In addition, its consumption favors the reduction of chances to suffer a heart attack.Much of the lucuma is consumed fresh, but a huge part of it is consumed in powder form. Lucuma is used as a sweetener or even for its exquisite flavor.
In addition, the culture of lúcuma consumption is very widespread due to its properties.
