Pros: A small portion of fruit before bed can be a healthy snack, especially if you're craving something sweet. Fruits like bananas contain magnesium and potassium, which may help relax muscles and promote sleep.
Cons: Eating too much fruit right before bed could lead to a spike in blood sugar, which might interfere with sleep for some people, especially if the fruit is high in sugar.
4. Eating Fruits on an Empty Stomach:
Pros: This is often recommended because your body can absorb the nutrients from the fruit more efficiently. It's also less likely to interfere with the digestion of other foods.
Cons: As mentioned earlier, it may cause digestive issues in some people.
5. Frequency of Eating Fruits:
Daily Intake: It’s generally recommended to eat at least 2-4 servings of fruit per day. This ensures you get a good variety of vitamins, minerals, and fiber.
Variety: Try to include a variety of fruits to benefit from different nutrients and avoid overconsumption of fruit sugars (fructose).
