According to an article I've read which was posted on Yahoo, Durian can cause weight gain. Because in every 1 kilogram of Durian, it has already 1,350 calories on it. Also, people with diabetes should limit their selves from eating Durian. because it has a high sugar content. But on the other hand, Durians are rich in nutrients. Because it's rich of dietary fiber, potassium, vitamin C & B complex and iron. Besides, Durians are instant energizers. Because of its high amount of carbohydrate content. :)

thank you for the information about Durian. im really into eating fruits and vegetables since i was a kid, but i think im gonna need to try atleast once in a while. if Durian can cause weight gain, it would be best for me to try eating that cause you know i am just thin like a paper (haha just kidding).

If it doesnt smell that bad then I would have eaten more of it regularly. Last time I ate some was like 3 years ago.

I had durian for a couple of times only in my life. It is an exotic fruit to us. In the market where durians are sold, it is very expensive for a durian, but it tastes good. Thanks for the information about durian.

Though it can cause weight gain, I still like to eat durian. It's very delicious however, it's not everyday that I can eat it.

wow so Durian is the answer to my wish since I would like to gain some weight. I haven't taste a durian nor seen it in my naked eye. I have only seen it on TV. They say it smells bad but tastes good. Since durian is not abundant here in my location I need to buy it on a fruit stand or search for it. here in my place they say a medium durian cost more than 200 pesos, that's sounds expensive for me, but to think the benefits of Durian is worth the cost.

Well I suggest that you should go to Davao just to make sure you will able to buy some Durian. Because it was really abundant there. Hehe! :)

Thanks for the information about the health benefits of durian. I like durian when it is made as candies. They are delicious. Eventhough, the smell is not quite good, somehow it is delicious and has health benefits. :-)
