Jackfruit is a very large tropical fruit with firm, slightly sweet flesh that is often used as a meat substitute when unripe. Ripe jackfruit is eaten as a sweet fruit and provides moderate carbohydrate.

🍳
Preparation note

Eat ripe flesh raw to keep vitamin C; unripe jackfruit is usually cooked and behaves more like a starchy vegetable.

Phytochemicals

Why are some phytochemicals missing? Nutriofia tracks over 50 bioactive plant compounds — including allicin, betanin, glucosinolates, lignans, and polyphenols — but comprehensive measurement data simply doesn't exist yet for most foods. Unlike vitamins and minerals, phytochemical analysis is still an active area of food science research. When a compound doesn't appear here, it means no published measurement exists for this food, not that the food lacks it. We update our database as new data becomes available.
