Longan is a delicious tropical fruit widely found in China, Taiwan, Vietnam, and Cambodia. It possesses anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antiviral, and antibacterial properties that contribute to many of the health benefits of longan fruit.

Longan fruit is a small, round white-fleshed fruit with yellow-brown skin that grows in hanging clusters. The fruit tastes mildly sweet and juicy and shares similarities with the lychee fruit. Longan fruit has a drier sweetness and a musky flavor, while lychees are juicier, aromatic, and have a slightly more sour sweetness. Longan fruit is also called dragon's eye fruit because it has white flesh with a small brown seed in the middle. As the fruit ripens, the outer layer of the skin forms into a hardened shell which can be easily peeled off while eating it. Before eating the fruit, the seed should be removed. The seeds of the fruit are now gaining popularity as a health food because it contains gallic acid (GA) and ellagic acid (EA), which are plant-derived phenolic compounds.

Longan fruit is eaten in fresh, dried, and canned form. The fruit is also used for medicinal purposes; it has been used in traditional medicine in Asia, thanks to its nutritional value.
