  Kwani what fruit are you talking about? You are hijacking an otherwise healthy discussion. I eat fruits two hours before a meal. They should be 9 servings per day. What is a serving? Is it the type of fruit? newfarer wrote:maka wrote:He he he...what kind of fruits are we talking about? I eat a 'fruit' in the morning before breakfast and another at night before snoring the night away just thrice a week.is that healthy? by the way I heard cathy kyuna with my two ears tell jeff koinage on the bench that they eat the 'fruit' sometimes upto 3am .I used to do the same but I think mileage yangu imeisa. mimi kwisa.saa hii tunda moja asubuhi na ingine jioni then kwisa she was calling it function at the junction.

HA!! Tell that to a typical African man.Serve him a bowl of fruit salad for dinner and see heavens open. To some men in some communities,fruits belong to women and children. I too am getting confused. I am taking 'fruit' as the literal things that arise from plants. Anyway, this will be an interesting experiment to do. If you ever find yourself in a buffet, instead of helping yourself to the meats, the pastries and lasagnas, try and eat the assorted fruit and wholemeal grains and have the waiter serve you freshly made fruit juices instead of the fizzy or canned drinks. Eat and drink these to your fill. It will do no harm, just an experiment. You will find that you are less drowsy, more attentive and more active physically; a healthy trade off with that full feeling you will get from eating the meats and the refined foods to your fill.

First I dont drink fizzy/canned stuff. Since everything became herbal I also turned into a herbal human. @ Wilyum. You are are right, fruit should be eaten on an empty stomach because it helps detoxify the system supplying you with a great deal of energy for weight loss and other life activities. see? Are all fat? why then are kids told to eat fruits after food. Even if you visit most homes,the fruits are served later after guys are done eating.Why? Because that is what we were taught in school. Fruits are desserts. smh. Now since fruits have become expensive one can give each person a vitamin pill to swallow before they start eating not sure how effective they are. A bowl of vitamin suppliments for dessert. or first course "The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good.

referring to fruits as intended by the starter of the thread, i eat mine before meals..But am told it should be at least 20 mins before meals for better absorption of nutrients  and some fruits should not be mixed e.g water melon should be eaten alone. Do not let your hearts be troubled, trust in God

 Quote:some fruits should not be mixed e.g water melon should be eaten alone. I think too much knowledge kills. People have been eating fruits anyhow,anywhere and anytime since time immemorial.Our grandparents live longer and are healthier than us yet they didnt have this 'how to eat well' manual. Infact the more we try to eat well the sooner and the more we die! Diet related illnesses affect these people who come up with these great manuals.I wonder why. Bottom line is this,and it's no wonder ancient men lived longer.The body is a factory designed to do its work so let it figure out what to do with the protein,vitamin,starch and min when they get into the mouth. Trying to help it too much makes it a soft pampered factory which it breaks down easily whenever it senses anything unusual.

Fruits should be taken at least 20mins before meals for maximum absorption and also to minimize chances of "fermenting".
This does not mean in anyway,fruits should be ate only before meals, but it discourages eating fruits just after a meal.
Any other time apart from "just after a meal" is the ideal time.
@essyk, You are forgetting your fore fathers ate fruits anytime of the day,if not all the time.

I also know of that. But I willfully neglect. Not only that but grains, veges, nuts and sometimes flesh as well.  At least wazuans are in consensus in regards to when fruit eaten.
