As winter goes by, fruits suddenly increase.
Eating fruit always makes people very happy. Especially after eating, I want to eat some sour and sweet fruits.
At this time, often will be kindly reminded:
No, it’s not good to eat fruit after dinner!
Is it true? How should fruits be eaten?
Today, please invite professionals to tell you about the 8 most common problems in eating fruits.
Question 1: Can I eat fruit after dinner?
Truth: Yes, otherwise you will be robbed if you eat later.
Legend has it that fruits will be stuck in the stomach by the food they ate before, which is prone to abdominal distension or constipation.
The problem is that fruits are called fruits because their main components are water (generally above 85%), and the rest are mostly sugar and some plant compounds, which are much easier to digest than chicken, duck, fish and rice steamed bread.
If you are already very full and have a plate of fruit, it will affect your digestion.
However, this is not to blame fruit.
Question 2: Can I eat fruit before meals?
Truth: Yes.
[on an empty stomach] is not so fragile. Although tannic acid in fruits may irritate the intestines and stomach, as long as there is no problem of hyperacidity and don’t eat undercooked persimmons, there is no need to worry.
Apples, pears and oranges are all good emergency fruits. It is no problem to eat a little when hungry.
Question 3: Can fruits be heated?
Truth: It depends.
Whether to add or not to heat is a personal preference, not a big problem.
Apple cake, Sydney soup, yellow peach pie… Hot fruits like this are indeed more delicious and delicious. Moreover, after the fruits are cooked, the stimulation of fiber and other components to digestive tract is reduced, which is good for people with dyspepsia.
However, it is also [cause and effect vary] whether heating is added or not. Strawberry, kiwi fruit, winter jujube… This kind of fruit can be bought and eaten now, and the taste of hot and ripe food is a long story.
In short, for people with weak digestion ability, eating cooked fruits is a good way, and ordinary people are free.
The only thing to pay attention to is-put less sugar, otherwise eating fruit will become eating sugar.
Question 4: Is freshly squeezed juice healthier?
Truth: Not really.
It feels great to watch the fruit turn into fruit juice with one’s own eyes, with no natural addition.
But! (The important thing is always but)
The concentrated juice is all essence. This cup of orange juice can hold 5 oranges. It is nutritious, sugar and calories.
The problem is that one orange is half full at ordinary times, but a cup of orange juice (5 oranges) is not enough to drink. According to this method of eating, one can definitely contribute to the great cause of gaining weight.
It is suggested that everyone should squeeze juice with their own teeth. It is healthier to swallow the pulp together after squeezing.
Question 5: Is it not easy to get fat after eating dried fruits?
Truth: Disappointing again, no.
The real dried fruit is a dried fruit that does not add sugar, salt or oil and directly siphons away water.
This kind of dried fruit is 70% sugar and definitely has a lot of calories. It is not a sharp weight loss weapon at all.
As for preserved fruits, candied fruits, crisps of fruits and vegetables… higher than the dry heat of fruits, it is a proper [energy bomb].
Let’s eat fresh fruit.
Question 6: Can fruit enzyme relieve constipation and beautify skin?
Truth: No, but it can lose weight for wallets.
[Enzyme] is actually a Japanese name, the Chinese name is [enzyme], [fruit enzyme] is an enzyme made of fruit.
In fact, enzymes are necessary for various biological reactions in the human body. At present, there are more than 4,000 known enzymes. People cannot live without them.
But the problem is that fruit enzymes and enzymes in the human body are not a kind of thing, and even if they are a kind of thing, it is useless to eat them.
Because most enzymes are proteins themselves, they will basically be decomposed after being baptized by various digestive enzymes and gastric juice. Once the enzyme loses its original complete structure, it is naturally impossible to talk about relaxing bowels and caring skin.
In short, if you want to become beautiful, eat well and exercise persistently. This is the foundation.
Question 7: Seasonal fruits are more than greenhouse fruits
Is it more nutritious?
Truth: There is not much difference in nutritional value.
Some scientists have studied and found that the influence of light and temperature on vitamin C is only 10%.
In other words, seasonal fruits and greenhouse fruits are both good fruits, and there is no difference in nutrition.
In fact, the so-called “season” only means that the natural conditions such as temperature, humidity and light in that season are suitable for plant growth.
Now that we can already simulate similar environmental conditions, plants can grow all the year round, which is the benefit brought by scientific and technological progress.
As long as you don’t particularly dislike the taste, even if the fruit is not seasonal, you can eat it at ease.
Question 8: Is it better not to peel fruit?
Truth: Peel or not, don’t tangle too much.
There are some nutrients in the fruit skin, such as anthocyanin or other ingredients, which are sometimes higher than the pulp when calculated according to the unit weight.
But! (Important but again)
A little estimation shows that a medium-sized apple has only a few tens of grams of apple peel. If you want to reach the effective dose of anthocyanin by eating peel, I’m afraid you have to eat 10 kg and 8 kg of apple at a time.
In addition, WHO (World Health Organization) also recommends that we peel off the skin when eating fruit. But if you accidentally eat a little, don’t worry too much.
Therefore, there is no need to struggle: if you like peeling, you can eat it while peeling, and if you like even peeling, you can eat it together.
See here, have you suddenly felt much more relaxed?
To sum up, don’t struggle, don’t be lazy, fresh fruit is the best.
It’s lunchtime again, add some fruit to treat yourself ~
