With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, eating fruits has become one of the must-haves in most people's daily lives. However, if eating fruit is not scientific and reasonable, it will affect your health. So, how can you eat fruit scientifically and reasonably?
First, it is not advisable to eat too many fruits with high sugar content
Fruits high in sugar include grapes, durian, bananas, pineapples, etc., although these fruits are delicious, but excessive intake can bring adverse effects to the body, such as can lead to increased blood sugar, obesity and other problems. Therefore, it is best to control the amount of these fruits within 200 grams per day to avoid excessive sugar intake.
Second, eat more fruits rich in vitamin C
Vitamin C is one of the essential nutrients for the human body, which can improve the body's immunity and prevent the occurrence of colds and other diseases. Common fruits rich in vitamin C are citrus, strawberry, kiwi, hawthorn, cherry, etc., and it is recommended to consume at least one fruit rich in vitamin C every day.
Third, the best time to eat fruit
The best time to eat fruit is from half an hour before meals to 1 hour after meals, because the body's stomach acid is weak at this time, and eating fruits can promote digestion. However, if you already feel full, do not eat fruit anymore, so as not to affect the digestive function.
Fourth, choose fresh, non-toxic and harmless fruits
In order to ensure that we eat fresh, non-toxic and harmless fruits, we should choose regular supermarkets and fruit stores to buy, and pay attention to the color, smell and feel of fruits, so as not to affect our health by eating stale and toxic fruits.
5. Do not eat fruit on an empty stomach
Eating fruit on an empty stomach will cause the gastrointestinal tract to contract, stimulate gastric acid secretion, and lead to symptoms of indigestion such as bloating and diarrhea. Therefore, it is best to eat fruit after breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
6. Different kinds of fruits cannot be mixed and eaten
Different kinds of fruits contain different kinds of fruit acids and fructose, and if mixed and eaten, it is easy to cause gastrointestinal discomfort. Therefore, when eating fruits, you should pay attention to collocation, and do not mix acidic fruits and sweet fruits.
