Consuming fruits daily is crucial for health due to their vitamins, minerals, and fibers, but it's important to eat them correctly to maximize benefits, including not peeling fruits with edible skins and avoiding refrigerating certain types of fruits to maintain their flavor and nutrients.
Insights
- Peeling fruits removes essential nutrients, so it's advised to wash them thoroughly instead, especially fruits with edible peels like apples, chikkos, and pears.
- For optimal health benefits, consume fruits separately from meals, chew them instead of juicing, and store fruits like avocados, apples, and bananas outside the refrigerator to preserve taste, texture, and nutrition.
