It is particularly rich in folate (Vitamin B9) while remaining very low in calories, carbohydrates, and fat. Chayote = Buddha Hand Squash | Spleen Strengthening & Fluid Regulation Named for its resemblance to two hands joined in prayer, it is also known as Chayote, Sayote, or Pear Squash. It belongs to the Cucurbitaceae (gourd) family. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), chayote is believed to dispel wind, clear heat, strengthen the spleen, whet the appetite, and promote diuresis (fluid regulation). 5 Key Benefits and Nutrients of Chayote: Benefit 1: Cell Repair & Immune Support Chayote is exceptionally rich in folate. A single fruit (approx. 200g) contains about 189mcg of folate. Sufficient folate intake helps the body produce new cells and repair DNA, while also combating fatigue and boosting resistance. It is ideal for those who feel tired easily or have low hemoglobin levels. Folate also promotes metabolism and the production of red blood cells. Benefit 2: Anti-viral & Immunity Boost Chayote contains 8mg of Vitamin C per 100g. Half a chayote (approx. 200g) provides a quarter of the recommended daily intake (60-75mg). Vitamin C protects cells from viruses and bacteria. Its high Vitamin C content also aids collagen production, supporting the repair of cells, gums, blood vessels, and bones. It helps prevent scurvy and gum inflammation. When paired with adequate protein, it promotes collagen synthesis to maintain skin elasticity.

A study in the journal Antioxidants concluded that consuming chayote provides antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects for elderly individuals with metabolic syndrome. With 1.45mcg of Selenium per 100g, it enhances the immune system's ability to identify pathogens. Selenium also helps lower blood lipids and blood pressure, aids detoxification, and slows aging by boosting antibody capacity and doubling the effectiveness of macrophages. Benefit 4: Anti-cancer & Blood Sugar Control A 2019 review in Food Chemistry investigated the nutritional and pharmacological properties of chayote, noting it is rich in polyphenols, including phenolic acids, tannins, and hydroquinones. These polyphenols provide anti-allergic, anti-viral, anti-cancer, and blood sugar-lowering effects within the body.

Selection and Preparation Tips Choosing Fresh Squash: Smooth Skin & Soft Fuzz When buying, look for a smooth surface with soft "hairs" (fuzz), which indicates a young, tender squash. If the skin is wrinkled or the spines have hardened, the squash is old.

This sap can be hard to wash off your hands, but it comes off easily with warm/hot water. To avoid the stickiness entirely, it is recommended to wear gloves while preparing chayote. Source: HK01
