Have
you wondered anytime, why we need to eat fruits in an empty stomach and not
after a meal? Eating fruit in an empty stomach plays a very important role in
detoxifying our system, supplying us with a great deal of energy for weight
loss and other physical activities. Graying hair, balding, nervous outburst,
and dark circles under the eyes -all of these will NOT happen if you eat fruit
in an empty stomach
Fruits are the most important
food in our diet:
There is no such thing as some fruits, like orange and lemon are acidic, because all fruits become alkaline in our body. If you have mastered the correct way of eating fruit, you have the Secret for Beauty, Longevity, Health, Energy, Happiness and Normal weight.
When
you need to drink fruit juice, drink only fresh fruit juice, not from the packs
and cans. Don't drink juice that has been heated. Don't eat cooked fruit; you
don't get the nutrients at all. You get only the taste... Cooking destroys all
of the vitamins. Better still, 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. Eat fruit and drink
fruit juice for just 3 days, and you will be surprised when your friends say
how radiant you look!
