Lychee fruit, also known as Lichi or Leechi, is the latest super fruit antioxidant and detox nutrient to hit the market. Like other super fruits (i.e. acai), the lychee fruit comes from a tropical fruit tree—an evergreen tree actually. However, they are native to China but now cultivated in several different areas across the globe, including the United States.
Traditionally, lychee is eaten fresh when ripe by peeling off the reddish rind (that looks like a raspberry at first glance) to expose the white, sweet flesh. Today, products like our newly added Lichi Diet and Lichi Totally Body Detox utilize the antioxidant potential of this special fruit in extract and powder form.

As with other fruits, lychees are relatively low in saturated fat and sodium. They’re also cholesterol free. Lychee’s most intriguing nutritional characteristic, however—and why we now have Lichi supplements—is the fruit’s amazing amount of polyphenols. They contain 15% more polyphenols than grapes, which is typically the standard to which other fruits are help against.
