Let's start of the Rambutan fruit it's name is derived from the Malay word rambut, meaning 'hair' when the skin is peeled away a a firm, white, translucent flesh appears similar to a Lychee and just as tasty and why is Rambutans good for because they are rich in vitamin C , a nutrient that helps your body absorb dietary iron more easily.

The Guava originally from Central America and the West Indies, Guava is now grown in many tropical countries and favored especially for its fragrant, exotic taste eaten fresh like a apple or you can turn it into a delicious juice and it's amazingly rich in antioxidants, vitamin C, potassium, and fiber.
The Rose-Apple much like shape of a pear, the Rose-Apple has a shiny skin that is either pink or green in color. Extremely refreshing crispy and crunchy taste. Like a apple it is rich in dietary fiber and helps regulating blood sugar and helps in weight management.
The Longan a lesser known sibling of the Lychee and Rambutan, the Longan has a sweet, delicate flavor and grows in Northern Thailand in the Chang Mai area.

Coconuts just have to many benefits to list but here are some they improve heart health, weight loss, and digestion.
Now here is one that i never even knew about till i came to Asia they call it the Salacca fruit and my god this is the most tasting fruit i have ever had it's like a nut cocktail the Cashew nut and Brazil nut are very prominent in this fruit.
The Salacca also known as the Snake fruit is not only a great fruit to include in your food for its flavor, but also for its nutrient content, which includes high levels of dietary fiber, protein, sugars, potassium, iron, calcium, phosphorous, vitamin C, and vitamin A, as well as various antioxidants and active ingredients.

Jackfruit another good source of vitamin C, potassium, dietary fiber, and other important vitamins and minerals and taste superb like passionfruit , pineapple and mango all mixed in one , well that's my description and i love this fruit a little chilled it's just more crunchy after been chilled a little.
This what it looks like when the Jackfruit is cut up.
And it is known that the Jackfruit seeds have 6 incredible benefits if eaten the Thai's boil them up in water and then add a few spices and i have eaten them what a incredible taste.
