Right and wrong fruit: the sweeter the sugar the higher the fruit?

Fruit is an indispensable part of a healthy life and it is also one of the foods most concerned by people. There has always been an endless stream of talk about fruit.

Statement 1: The sweeter the fruit, the higher the sugar content. For the same kind of fruit, this statement is basically correct, but it may not be correct for different types of fruit. Because the sweetness is not only related to the level of sugar content, but also related to the type of sugar (than sugar if sweeter than sucrose), sour taste.

Statement 2: Do not eat fruit before meals. error. Eating fruits before meals will neither affect digestion nor absorption, nor increase the total amount of food.

Statement 3: Eating fruit before meals helps to lose weight. correct. Compared with staple foods, meat, etc., fruits are bulky and have less energy, which helps to reduce energy intake during dinner and therefore help to lose weight. Of course, in the end, reducing weight loss will ultimately depend on total food intake and exercise.

Statement 4: After eating fruit, it is easy to gain weight. correct. The meal is already full, and then some fruits are eaten more. This increases energy intake and holds the stomach wide. This can easily lead to obesity.

Statement 5: Do not eat fruit before going to bed. Generally correct. Do not eat any food before going to sleep, including fruits. But it should be possible to eat fruit one or two hours before going to bed, especially those who cannot attend at any other time.

Statement 6: Do not eat fruit when eating. Not based on. People who have eaten fruit salads know that there are no problems eating fruit when they eat.

Statement 7: “The fruit in the morning is gold, the fruit in the noon is silver, the copper in the afternoon, and the aluminum in the evening”. There is no basis. Fruit or fruit, people or that person, is there such a big difference between morning and afternoon? Totally unreasonable.

Statement 8: The darker the fruit color, the higher the nutritional value. Basically correct. The pigments of fruits are mostly carotene, lutein, flavonoids, etc. These substances have very good nutritional effects. Dark fruits contain more of these substances.

Statement 9: Fruits rise faster, and diabetics are unfit for human consumption. error. Only some fruits, such as watermelons, bananas, pineapples, etc., have a high GI, which increases blood sugar levels. While most of the remaining fruits, such as apples, pears, grapes, peaches, and oranges, do not increase blood sugar. Diabetes prevention guidelines encourage patients to consume fruit.

Statement 10: Pregnant women eat more fruit baby skin is good. error. The development of the baby's skin or other organs depends on the overall nutritional status of the mother rather than the fruit. It has been seen a lot of pregnant women with diarrhea caused by eating fruit.

Statement 11: Baby should eat more fruits. error. Infants and young children should maintain a balanced diet, milk, eggs, fish and shrimp, meat, vegetables, food, etc. are as important or more important than fruits. Eating too much fruit will inevitably affect the intake of other foods, resulting in poor nutrition of the baby.

Statement 12: Fruits are low-energy foods. error. Most fruits have higher moisture content and can only provide less energy, but some fruits, such as bananas, contain more energy than potatoes. Durian energy is also high due to its high fat content. Even with low-energy fruits, if you eat a lot a day, your energy intake may be excessive.

Argument 13: Fruits are alkaline foods. correct. Most fruits are alkaline, no matter how acidic they are.

Statement 14: fruit juice is better to eat. error. Fruit juice drink, perhaps more conducive to digestion, absorption, but it is easy to cause loss of nutrients (oxidation damage, or loss due to filtration).

Statement 15: Fruit can replace vegetables. error. The nutritional characteristics of fruits and vegetables are very different and cannot be replaced by each other.

Statement 16: "Confinement" can not eat fruit. No reason. Fruits are rich in nutrients and maternal women should be properly supplemented.

Statement 17: Fasting can not eat fruit. No reason. There are always many rumors about "fast food that cannot be eaten."
