But some believe that fruits hinder with digestion results in bloating, gas, heartburn. Well, there is no such scientific reason behind it as our stomach contains enough amount of Hydrochloric acid to kill the bacteria responsible for fermentation.

  • Before or After Meal: As fruits are full of moisture and fiber, it gives the satisfaction of fullness for the longest time, so it is not recommended have it just before the meal.

One should have at least the gap of 30 minutes before or after the meal. 

  • Before Bed:  As we all know, one should not eat anything before bed as it increases the blood sugar level and elevates the metabolism of the body which needs to be alow during bed for sound sleep. The same principle goes with Fruits as well as they contain Fructose, a simple sugar, which needs to be digested.

To elevate the metabolism, fruits are the best choice to have. We can have it after few minutes of having a glass of water in early morning and can be a good choice for our Breakfast.  To maintain the blood sugar level, Fruits are also recommended to have in between meals as a snack as we do not need to cook it and it can be available easily.

  • Pre-Workout Or Post-Workout: Energy is being depleted during the course of the strenuous exercise, so fruits like Banana are the healthiest choice to have it before or after the workout.
