Dragon fruit production season is 
from June to November every year


Phytochemical "Betaxanthin"
Dragon fruit also contains "phytochemicals" that have anti-cancer, antioxidant and free radical elimination properties. Phytochemicals are natural pigments that make plants appear colorful. They are also the immune system of plants, helping to resist damage from insects, various bacteria and viruses, and can resist ultraviolet rays, radiation or chemical drugs.

Phytochemicals cannot be produced by the human body itself and must be ingested through diet. 
A study published in the international research journal "Current Research in Food Science" in June 2020 mentioned that the color of fruits and vegetables is indeed related to the actual antioxidant capacity.




Betalains cannot be fully absorbed and metabolized by the human body. 
When you go to the toilet after eating red dragon fruit, you will find that the color of your urine or feces is dark red
This is not actually related to hematuria
or bloody stools.
