The hidden truth about lychee

Lychee consumption has been linked to fatal hypoglycemia outbreaks in children in Muzaffarpur,Bihar.

Can a sweet summer fruit like lychee actually drop your blood sugar dangerously?

Unripe lychee contains hypoglycin A
This can cause dangerous low blood sugar, especially:

  • In malnourished individuals
  • When eaten on an empty stomach
  • Excess intake

Have you ever imagined that a sweet treat can turn fatal ?

Never imagined fruits could be dangerous or fatal in any way.

guys the important point to note here is that, consumption of UNRIPE Lychee fruits by malnourished individuals is the dangerous situation. Not for every individual or not for ripe fruits. It is important to note that point?
