Eid ul Adha is known by a variety of names; Eid e Qurban, Bari Eid, Bakra Eid and Namkeen Eid. Regardless of what you call it, there are no two opinions that food is the backbone of the festival. This Eid is celebrated to commemorate the sacrifice of Hazrat Ibrahim(AS) and his willingness to obey Allah (SWT)’s command. Before he could sacrifice his son for Allah, a lamb was replaced under his knife. And so, every 10th Zul Hijjah, Muslims are to sacrifice an animal, divide the meat into three parts- the needy, the relatives and for yourself.

The reason for it is pretty straight forward; fruits are filled with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants but very low in calories. The good thing about fruits is that they are delicious so consuming them isn’t a problem!

For example, if a person is looking for potassium then he will go for bananas as they have high potassium content. If he requires vitamin C then he will opt for citrus fruits and so on. So, here is the list of the healthiest fruits considered around the world, not ranked according to their nut
