Tindora, botanically classified as Coccinia Grandis, is a vigorous, tropical climbing vine that can grow up to ten centimeters per day and belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family. Tindora is a good source of vitamin A, vitamin B, and beta-carotene. It is also known for its toxin-eliminating properties and can help clean the bloodstream. Tindora can be eaten raw as a salad vegetable, though its bitter flavor can be strong so the addition of vinegar and sugar can reduce or remove any bitter aftertaste the fruit may impart.
