This is a Thai variety of Carambola. Its fruits are known for their high quality and exceptional flavor. Besides, of all the carambolas, Fwang Tung fruit has the least of oxalic acid, which makes it taste sweet, albeit not quite the sweetest when compared to some other carambola varieties. Yet, with the lowest amount of acid in there, it makes whatever sugar is in the fruit taste sweeter. Carambola contains good quantities of vitamin-C, which is a powerful natural antioxidant. In addition, the high fiber and water content, low calories, and significant carbohydrate composition make all carambolas ideal for helping people lose weight.
