Great Gifts for Cancer Patients and Diabetics
The Miracle Fruit Tree, which originated in South Africa, lives up to its name because it has properties that can truly be considered miraculous. This shrubby tropical plant can be grown in the ground in USDA Plant Hardiness Zones 9 to 11, or in a container in Zones 4 to 11. It produces one-inch football-shaped red berries that contain miraculin. When you eat a Miracle Fruit, this compound binds to the sweet taste receptors of your tongue and causes any sour food you eat to taste extremely sweet for up to an hour or so. But this novelty is only the beginning of what Miracle Fruit can do.
If you have ever wondered about the best gifts for cancer patients, the tropical Miracle Fruit Tree may be ideal. Dysgeusia, a condition that interferes with the sense of taste, is one of the most frequent side effects of chemotherapy. The same properties that make Miracle Fruit transform sour or acidic flavors into sweet ones can also help those suffering from Dysgeusia to enjoy the flavors of food again. This can be a valuable part of recovery for many who have undergone chemotherapy and are having trouble eating.
More Miracle Fruit Benefits
Miracle Fruit Trees can also be fantastic gifts for diabetics. First, Miracle Fruits are very high in antioxidants. As such they provide valuable nutrition not only to diabetics or cancer patients, but to anyone concerned with their health. However, beyond the benefits of antioxidants, the sweet-enhancing effects of eating just one Miracle Fruit Berry can help diabetics to enjoy intensely sweet flavors without consuming high amounts of sugar. Imagine a slice of lemon that tastes like a lemonade popsicle, or sourdough bread that tastes like the sweetest cake. One fruit from this easy-to-grow small tree is all it takes.
If you are looking for gifts for cancer patients or diabetics, then the Miracle Fruit Tree is a thoughtful option. The pleasure of growing your own fruit tree is a welcomed activity for many. The exceptional Miracle Fruit Tree is a unique way for someone to not only grow their own fruit, but the fruit can help those who have had challenges regarding their sense of taste, or who miss the sweet flavor of sugar.
