However, what is meant by durian (without any affix) is usually Durio zibethinus. Other types of edible durians and sometimes found in the local market in Southeast Asia include lai (D. kutejensis), dependence (D. oxleyanus), turtle durian or kekura (D. graveolens), and lahung (D dulcis).

Durian also contains lots of vitamin B1, vitamin B2, and vitamin C; as well as potassium, calcium and phosphorus. Because of the strong smell, some companies forbid people from carrying durians, such as in an airplane cabin, in public transport vehicles or taken to a hotel. For fans of durian, so as not to cause unpleasant things with people who do not like the smell of durian, it is believed there is an easy way to remove the smell of durian in the fingers and mouth.
The fingers are cleaned by stirring the water in the durian portion (ie the inner fruit peel, where the meat and the durian seed are attached) and the water is not removed, but used to rinse. According to many stories that develop in society (urban legend), Durian is considered as a hot food, and after eating durian body will usually sweat. The common way used to overcome this is to pour fresh water on the skin of fruit that has been empty, then drunk.
In addition, durian season usually occurs in conjunction with the mangosteen season, the fruit that is considered cooling the body. Thus, the two fruits are then eaten together. Scientifically, the above claims have never been proven. Chances are that because of the solid nutrient content of the durian, people who eat durian often eat most so that eventually experienced an increase in blood pressure. It is a natural reaction to eating too much food. Here are 7 Properties of Durian Fruits to Replicate:
