Durian has a strong smell, and people say eating too much can make you dizzy, but there are still plenty of people who simply can't stop themselves from eating it once they catch its scent.

In reality, durian is not just tasty — it also has many health benefits.

Boosts energy

Every 100 grams of durian contains 21% of the daily required carbohydrates. Because it is rich in carbohydrates, it can help replenish energy.

Reduces stress

The serotonin it contains helps reduce stress and relieve depression. Durian is also rich in vitamin B6, which plays a key role in producing serotonin.

Strengthens bones and teeth

Because it contains calcium, potassium, and vitamin B, it strengthens bones and teeth.

Keeps you looking youthful

It is also rich in vitamin C, which can remove free radicals from the body and help keep you looking young.
