I often hear the old man say: One apple a day, the doctor stays away from me. Therefore, among the many fruits, people always tend to buy apples. Indeed, apples are not only sweet in taste, but also particularly high in nutritional value, not only rich in vitamins, dietary fiber, antioxidants, etc., but also effective in lowering cholesterol and protecting cardiovascular health. Therefore, apples are also known as the "king of fruits". Although there are many benefits of eating apples, it also has some precautions, among which it is not recommended to eat apples during these two time periods, otherwise it may also cause adverse effects on the body. Let's follow me to find out which two time periods are there!
One: Before going to bed.
As the saying goes: golden apples in the morning, silver apples at noon, and poisonous apples in the evening. From this sentence, we can understand that it is best to eat apples in the morning. Because apples are rich in dietary fiber and water, they can promote intestinal peristalsis. Moreover, the sugars in apples can also be quickly absorbed by the body to provide energy for normal human activities. Eating apples at noon, the sugars in apples can also promote the secretion of dopamine by the brain, which has certain benefits for relieving physical fatigue, so eating apples at noon is silver apples. Poisoning apples at night does not mean that eating apples at night is poisonous, in terms of nutritional content, apples will not change their nutritional composition because they are eaten at different times, but because eating apples at night is not conducive to health.
Many of my friends eat dinner early, and when they go to bed at night, they will feel hungry and choose to eat an apple to satisfy their hunger. But at night is the time for the body to rest and recover, our exercise will be reduced, and the peristalsis of the stomach and intestines will be relatively slowed down. If you are a diabetic, eating apples at night will also cause the sugar in apples to be unable to be consumed, which will cause blood sugar to rise. Therefore, it is best to avoid apples at night before going to bed. If you want to eat it, you should also eat it two hours before bedtime.
Two: After eating seafood.
When we've just eaten seafood, it's best not to eat apples right away. Seafood is very nutritious, with a lot of protein and trace elements, which is very beneficial to our health. However, apples contain a substance called tannic acid, and if we eat apples immediately after eating seafood, the tannic acid in apples will combine with the protein in seafood to form an indigestible sediment. This not only hinders our absorption of food, but can also cause a certain burden on the digestive system. Especially for people with sensitive digestive systems, this discomfort may be more pronounced, such as abdominal pain, nausea and other symptoms. Therefore, to ensure our good health and comfort, it is advisable to try to avoid eating apples immediately after tasting seafood. If you want to eat apples, it is best to wait for 2 hours before eating them to avoid causing discomfort to your body.
Although apples are a nutritious fruit, it is also important to choose the right time when eating apples. At night, before going to bed and after eating seafood, it is best not to eat apples to avoid adverse effects on the body. In addition, there are a few things to note about eating apples:
1. Avoid excessive consumption.
Despite the many benefits of eating apples, we still need to control their intake. Excessive intake of apples can lead to excess sugar and calories, especially for those who need to keep their blood sugar levels under strict control.
2. Peel and serve.
Apples have a layer of skin, and this apple skin also contains a lot of dietary fiber and vitamins, but many merchants, in order to make apples look better and more conducive to preservation, usually put some fruit wax or preservatives on the surface of apples, and these substances are difficult to wash off by ordinary cleaning methods, so it is best for us to peel off the apple skin before eating.
