talking about fruit.

Have you ever had a perfectly ripe mango or peach, picked from the tree? You bite into its soft flesh, sweet juice drips down your chin, living with flavor. The fragrance of a freshly cut cantaloupe is enough to stimulate salivary glands, preparing the mouth to marry with splendid taste. The body's reaction to fruit does not stop in the mouth, but continues as the digestive system accepts a food filled with enzymes.it is compounded with vitamins, minerals, water-soluble proteins, enzymes and trace elements.

I would like to point it out here is from all those glorious nutrition that fruit contains, I think "enzymes" is still under rated by many people.

Enzymes are needed for the digestive system to work. They are necessary to break down food particles so they can be utilized for energy. The human body makes approximately 22 different digestive enzymes which are capable of digesting carbohydrates, protein and fats. Raw vegetables and raw fruit are rich sources of enzymes.

Especially because all of us loose our ability to produce concentrated digestive enzymes as we grow older, it is important to eat fruit for your beauty, wight control and of course for your health.  However, to eat WHEN is even more important.

Have you ever experienced burping or getting stomach ache after eating fruit before?
It is because you ate fruit after eating something else like as a dessert.
As fruit contains a lot of enzymes, they only take about 30 mins to get delivered to your stomach while usual meals take about 2-4 hours. So when you eat fruit after something, they get stuck in your body and it will create ruminal fermentation. In this way, you're wasting the precious enzymes!

It is definitely much more beneficial to eat fruit before eating, specially for breakfast.
A significant fraction of the human body is water and living water that fruit contains helps you to detoxicate your body.

Also, many people tend to think that fruit contains much sugar and it's not good for diet and may cause diabetes but this is wrong;
White sugar and fruit sugar are totally different, white sugar increases blood glucose levels as it gets assimilated rapidly by intestine wall and it required much insulin to deliver sugar in the blood to each cells, but with fruit sugar, it is much more complex and it does not require insulin. Eating fruit correctly actually helps to decrease blood glucose level.

To eat fruit correctly;

• Eat it when your stomach is empty
• Eat them raw (The enzymes are destroyed by heat).

Of course there is nothing wrong is having an apple tart after meal with your cup of tea, or chocolate banana crepe with your espresso. I just thought I should share this fact that eating fruit at the right moment can help your skin conditions, weight control, blood glucose level control etc etc.

To always enjoy good food and drinks, you need to be healthy, right?
