> EATING FRUIT...

>
> It's long but very informative
>
>
>
> We all think eating fruits means just buying fruits, cutting it and just
> popping it into our mouths. It's not as easy as you think. It's
> important to know how and when to eat.
>
>
>
> What is the correct way of eating fruits?
>
>
>
> IT MEANS NOT EATING FRUITS AFTER YOUR MEALS! * FRUITS SHOULD BE EATEN ON
> AN-EMPTY STOMACH.
>
>
>
> If you eat fruit like that, it will play a major role to detoxify your
> system, supplying you with a great deal of energy for weight loss and
> other life activities.
>
>
>
> FRUIT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FOOD. Let's say you eat two slices of bread
> and then a slice of fruit. The slice of fruit is ready to go straight
> through the stomach into the intestines, but it is prevented from doing
> so.
>
>
>
> In the meantime the whole meal rots and ferments and turns to acid. The
> minute the fruit comes into contact with the food in the stomach and
> digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil.....
>
>
>
> So please eat your fruits on an empty stomach or before your meals! You
> have heard people complaining - every time I eat watermelon I burp, when
> I eat durian my stomach bloats up, when I eat a banana I feel like
> running to the toilet etc - actually all this will not arise if you eat
> the fruit on an empty stomach. The fruit mixes with the putrefying other
> food and produces gas and hence you will bloat!
>
>
>
> Graying hair, balding, nervous outburst, and dark circles under the eyes
> all these will NOT happen if you take fruits on an empty stomach.
>
>
>
> There is no such thing as some fruits, like orange and lemon are acidic,
> because all fruits become alkaline in our body, according to Dr..
> Herbert Shelton who did research on this matter. If you have mastered
> the correct way of eating fruits, you have the Secret of beauty,
> longevity, health, energy, happiness and normal weight.
>
>
>
> When you need to drink fruit juice - drink only fresh fruit juice, NOT
> from the cans. Don't even drink juice that has been heated up. Don't eat
> cooked fruits because you don't get the nutrients at all. You only get
> to taste. Cooking destroys all the vitamins.
>
>
>
> But eating a whole fruit is better than drinking the juice.. If you
> should drink the juice, drink it mouthful by mouthful slowly, because
> you must let it mix with your saliva before swallowing it. You can go on
> a 3-day fruit fast to cleanse your body. Just eat fruits and drink fruit
> juice throughout the 3 days and you will be surprised when your friends
> tell you how radiant you look!

> APPLE: An apple a day keeps the doctor away? Although an apple has a low
> vitamin C content, it has antioxidants & flavonoids which enhances the
> activity of vitamin C thereby helping to lower the risks of colon
> cancer, heart attack & stroke.
