The summer season each year brings wafting memories of a juicy and luscious fruit called litchi. The origins of Litchi lie in southern China where as a crop it has been cultivated uninterruptedly for close to 2500 years. Its geographical propagation has been rather slow, which is due to the short life-span of its seed and the peculiar soil and climatic requirements associated with the plant.A classical instance of this is India which is the second largest producer just behind China, but litchi farming is chronologically speaking, very recent having been introduced only sometime in the middle of the 1700's. Together China and India between themselves produce more than 90% of the world's Litchi, leaving the rest of the world far behind. In the backdrop of all this it is interesting to know the various cultivars and varieties which dot the world of Litchi farming. Most or all of them have their genesis probably in China but have been suitably bred and modified to thrive in countries of their adoption. The terms 'cultivar' and 'variety' have often been used interchangeably but this convention often seems to ignore the obvious differences which exist between the two. A 'cultivar' is bred with the help of vegetative propagation, which could include cutting, grafting,budding and tissue culture and is a product of human effort and ingenuity. A 'variety' on the other hand is a natural phenomenon and is bred through seedlings. A 'variety' will always produce clones of the parent plant, but in a cultivar,there may be slight variation in a progeny compared to the parent particularly in the case of hybrids. The Litchi cultivars in India number about 40 out of which around 12 or 13 are commercially cultivated.The same cultivar or variety may be known by different names in various parts of the country. In China there are about 200 known cultivars although only 20 or so are in commercial farming, which means the genetic repository is much more widespread compared to India but

While it has reached popularity for its naturally sweet taste, there are a lot of things that the average consumer probably doesn't know about this tropical fruit and its vast health benefits. The first has to do with digestive health, and is probably one of the most powerful and universally beneficial reasons to keep it in your daily diet. Mango Juice: Mango fruit Juice as a natural laxative and regulator- Mango is one of the most potent natural laxatives you'll find. Even in it's dried form, mango can help to regulate the elimination process. This is because it has numerous beneficial enzymes which help to move things along, while it also contains concentrated amounts of the types of fiber that help move things along the digestive tract more quickly. Since it's natural, you don't get the typical cramping and discomfort you'd get with a commercial laxative. It simply helps to both clean the intestines and colon while also encouraging these important elimination organs to pass the food or blockages through more quickly. Incorporating a whole mango (medium sized) into your diet a few times a week can really make a difference in your digestive comfort by reducing the bloating, gas and discomfort that typically accompanies irregularity. Mango Juice: Mango fruit Juice are alkalizing and improve digestive- It may seem contradictory to logic since these fruits are very sweet, but mangos are actually quite alkalizing inside the body. This may explain why they are so soothing to the digestive tract and help to relive constipation and IBS so comfortably. They help reduce excessive stomach acid and acid indigestion as well, and create an alkaline environment. This may also be part of why they have an anti-inflammatory effect on skin conditions like acne. Mango Juice: Mango fruit Juice are abundant in vitamin E and iron- Most people only expect to find iron and vitamin E in grains and meats, however mangos are surprisingly rich in both. Iron
