      Eat fruit immediately after meals

      Many people like to eat fruit after a meal, thinking that eating fruit immediately after a meal will help digestion. In fact, this approach is wrong.

      Fruits contain a large amount of simple sugars, which are easily absorbed by the small intestine. However, if they are blocked by food in the stomach, they will cause flatulence and stomach discomfort due to putrefaction. Therefore, it is advisable to eat fruits 1 hour before or 2 hours after meals.
