I grow chayote in my yard. I consume it raw in green smoothies. I believe the high vitamin C content is very good for health. The young shoots and young leaves in a smoothie will give you lots of energy. I cook the fruit similar to the way you cook squash or zucchini. The fruit is high in folate which is very healthy. Folate will reduce homocystine in the blood
