Featured shots were taken on March 17, 2012 at Surigao City, Surigao Del Norte using GE x500 Camera.
TRIVIA: Soursop (English) /Guyabano's scientific name is Annona Muricata. The wonder fruit known as The Natural Cancer Cell Killer is native to Philippines. Scientific studies proved that Guyabano tree's bark, leaves and fruits contains one chemical that is 10,000 times the potency of the chemotherapy drug Adriamycin.

Guyabano is delicious! I really wish the scientists would do an extensive study about its cancer-killing capabilities, instead of guyabano being treated as an alternative medicine and the knowledge being spread through word of mouth alone. The big pharma companies will not be thrilled but the thought of defeating something as ominous as cancer with something as simple, abundant, and relatively inexpensive as guyabano is quite a thrill.
ReplyDeleteParang Science project.hehe. :) The wonders of nature right before my eyes. :)

ReplyDeleteLove your very creative descriptions on each of your photos. Makes the Guyabano fruit more interesting..hehe!
ReplyDeleteSarap nyan kapag Shake...:)
ReplyDeleteHaven't had some guyabanos in ages. I so wanna try the sour but sweet flesh that nobody can go wrong with. I don't think the cancer cell potential is too good to be true because I've heard many positive feedbacks from other people.
ReplyDeletethat's a common fruit in our backyard in the province. I love eating that fruit while riding at the back of the kalabaw too. hehe
ReplyDeleteLove the photos! I'm not a big fan of guyabano, but I'd love to have a glass of guyabano shake now.. :D
ReplyDeleteang cute ni kuya at ni bunso :D Guyabano is one of the fruits that I don't get tired of eating. I love anything sour.
ReplyDeleteUseful trivia, too! :)
I've always been a fan of Guyabanos since childhood. I love eating them with salt and cold. That sweet-sour juice it gives out parties in my mouth and makes me really happy! =)
ReplyDeleteguyabano is one of my favorite fruit. i remember when i was a little girl, my mom used to buy it because of me. for me this is the best pasalubong everytime she comes home from the market.
ReplyDeleteSome of my friends told me that a GE X500 camera takes good photographs. ^_^
ReplyDeletenice shot :)
ReplyDeletei want that heart shaped flower :O
I also love guyabano. We used to put it in a blender and make fresh shakes. I rarely see it being sold here in Manila though but we have guyabano in our backyard in Zamboanga :)
ReplyDeleteI think this is a different variety of Guyabano..because it looks different than the Guyabano we have in the province...and yes, I love Guyabano...
