Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Wang Lei
Durian seeds are edible. Not only can they be consumed, but they also offer significant health benefits. They are highly nutritious and possess certain medicinal properties—particularly for tonifying the kidneys and strengthening the spleen. Durian seeds can be eaten directly after peeling; their taste resembles that of chestnuts. They may also be boiled before consumption. In folk practice, durian seeds are sometimes used directly in soups.
