Delicious fruit so that many people are happy in, but to know, eating fruit is also a study. If you fall into the “fruit trap”, not only can not improve health, but will cause a variety of negative consequences. Now tell you to eat fruit 8 misunderstandings. Myth 1: fruit vitamin content is the highest. Vitamins are a large family, many members. Fruit may be rich in some of these components, but also has its “short board”, such as fruit does not contain fat-soluble vitamins, and most of the fruit of vitamin C content is limited. Myth 2: Eat more fruit can lose weight. Although the unit weight calculation, fruit calories than rice low, but because of its good taste, easy to eat more, not careful, sugar intake on the super standard. This not only can not lose weight, and will even play the opposite effect. Myth 3: eat when you want to eat. Fruits contain more organic acids and tannins, some also contain highly active proteases. Eating at the wrong time, may produce stimulation and damage to the stomach. Bananas, for example, are high in magnesium, and eating too much on an empty stomach can cause an imbalance in the ratio of magnesium to calcium in the blood, which may have an inhibitory effect on the cardiovascular system. In general, most fruits are suitable for consumption about 1-2 hours before meals. Myth 4: There is no harm in eating more. It is appropriate to consume about 200 grams of fruit per day. Most fruits have a high content of dietary fiber, eating too much will cause stomach pain, bloating. In addition, the cold stomach and intestines of the elderly can not eat more citrus; gastrointestinal or constipation should eat less persimmons. Some people eat pineapple will induce allergies, gastrointestinal disease and blood clotting disorders do not eat for good. Banana sugar and potassium is very high, high blood sugar and renal insufficiency to eat less. Myth 5: fruit as a meal, beauty. The human body needs nearly 50 kinds of nutrients to maintain survival, especially more than 65 grams of protein per day, more than 20 grams of fat to maintain the renewal and repair of tissues and organs. Fruits contain more than 85% water, protein content is less than 1%, almost no essential fatty acids, far from meeting the nutritional needs of the human body. Fruit protein, fat and calcium, iron and other content is less, long-term fruit as a meal, will certainly cause protein, lipids and other intake is insufficient, resulting in malnutrition and anemia. Myth 6: anti-pesticide peel. Fruit skin and its subcutaneous part is often the most nutritious part, throw away a pity. In fact, we do not have to worry too much about pesticide residues on the skin. China has clearly prohibited the use of highly toxic pesticides in fruits and vegetables and other direct access to food, and most of the fruits in the harvest days or even months before being eaten, the pesticides have basically decomposed. Before eating fruit can be repeatedly rinsed, or soaked in rice water for a while, to get rid of its surface residues. Myth 7: foreign fruit is more nutritious. “Foreign fruit” transportation, packaging, storage costs are high, the price is also high. Imported fruit in the journey has begun to occur in the degradation of nutrients, freshness is not ideal. Moreover, because of long-distance transportation, often do not wait for the fruit is fully ripe to pick down, through the chemical preservation, may affect the quality of fruit. In order to look good, this type of fruit may be treated with preservatives, or waxed on the surface to keep the appearance bright and shiny, but the nutrients will still be gradually lost in transportation. Therefore, fruit is best eaten locally and in season. Myth 8: Fruits can replace vegetables. Although the nutrition of fruits and vegetables is very similar, but fruits can not replace vegetables. Such as cabbage, spinach, vitamin C content, than apples, peaches, pears and so on about 10 times higher. But if you want to meet the body’s recommended amount of vitamin C for a day, you need to eat 5 kilograms of Fuji apples.
