Yacon

Looks like a sweet potato but actually these are  Yacon/yakun (Smallanthus sonchifolius). It is a perennial herb in the sunflower family native to the Andes Mountains in South America. It produces large, edible underground tubers often called the "Peruvian ground apple". 

Composed of about 75% water and rich in fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and inulin. FOS is a prebiotic fiber that the body does not fully digest, meaning it sweetens food without causing major blood sugar spikes.

One of my favorite — #Malunggay fruit. These are green pods of Moringa oleifera tree. The pods are packed with vitamin C, vitamin A, potassium, calcium, and iron. They offer a healthy dose of fiber to support good digestion. They contain helpful plant compounds like flavonoids and phenolic acids that fight cell damage. The antioxidants in the pods help lower inflammation, which may lower the risk of chronic conditions like arthritis and heart disease.
