Growing up it has become a habit to eat a fruit after a meal as it is already considered as a 'dessert'. But I read somewhere years ago that it is best to eat fresh fruits in the morning on an empty stomach. Yes, you've read that right. The vitamins and minerals are easily digested and absorbed straight into the bloodstream as it maximizes the benefit of the fruits. Fruits should be best eaten on its own, and wait for 30 minutes at least to digest before eating any food. But I prefer to wait for an hour before I eat my meal to ensure everything is digested. If you had eaten your proper meal, wait for at least three hours before you can eat fruit.
That is ME in the reflection. Hi!
I also juice a variety of green vegetables and fruits, and drink a glass of it with the help of a juicer in the morning as soon as I wake up. That way you know you already had your dose of antioxidants and nutrients before conquering your day. It is very rejuvenating to the mind and body. And the best part is, there isn't any particular recipe that everyone should follow. It really is all up to your tastebuds. But for starters, you might want to look for recipe online then work your way up.
It's been 6-7 years already and I feel great. My morning is not complete without fresh fruits, and my skin looks good as it was before with just a small change in my diet. (Of course that also includes no sodas, no alcohol, no smoking, applying sunblock everyday, 7-8 hours of sleep, moisturize, etc.)
I still eat a proper meal during the day because I know I can't rely on fruits alone. MODERATION is still a must.
