What Is Jujube Fruit?

How Does Jujube Fruit Taste?
If you’re interested in trying jujube fruit for yourself, here’s what to expect. When fresh, the white flesh of a jujube fruit is very similar in taste to that of an apple.
Jujube Health Benefits
Aside from being a natural and delicious snack, jujube fruit has some impressive potential health benefits. In Eastern medicine, it has been traditionally used to help with insomnia and reduce inflammation. Jujubes deliver calcium and phosphorus—for strong and healthy bones—and more vitamin C (per weight) than an orange, along with other key vitamins, minerals and organic compounds. Fresh or dried, this whole fruit also packs plenty of fiber. www.eatingwell.com
