Exotic Fruit Market offers Lychee fruit grown in
Hawaii, Florida, California, Mexico, Thailand and China. Lychee Fruit is
wonderfully sweet and delicious. Lychee is a wonderful and delicious tonic
fruit used by the Chinese as a blood tonic, to nurture the heart, and to add
luster and beauty to the skin. Fresh whole lychee contains a total 72 mg of
vitamin C per 100 grams of fruit, an amount representing 86% of the Daily Value. On average, consuming nine peeled lychee fruits would
meet an adult’s daily vitamin C requirement. Lychees have moderate amounts of polyphenols,
shown in one French study to be higher than several other fruits analyzed, such
as grapes and apples. For phenolic composition, flavan-3-ol monomers and dimers
were the major compounds representing about 87% of total polyphenols that
declined in content during storage or browning. Cyanidin-3-glucoside
represented 92% of total anthocyanins. Lychee contains oligonol, a short-chain
polyphenol under preliminary evaluation for its potential biological
properties. In traditional Chinese medicine, lychee is known as a fruit with
“hot” properties
There are numerous lychee cultivars, with
considerable confusion regarding their naming and identification. The same
cultivar grown in different climates can produce very different fruit.
Cultivars can also have different synonyms in various parts of the world. Most
cultivars grown in the United States were imported from China, except for the
“Groff”, which was developed in the state of Hawaii. In Florida, production is
based on several cultivars, including Mauritius, Brewster, and Hak Ip. Lychee,
