The most popular fruit on the table of a modern person is the apple. If pineapples, kiwi and mangoes are usually served as an original treat for the holidays, apples are present in the human diet almost every day. Has anyone thought about the fact that apples, it turns out, need to be eaten correctly? It sounds strange, but it really is.
Instructions
Step 1
Few people know that apples eaten immediately after consuming the main food come into contact with it, begin to oxidize and ferment. Of course, you won't get any health benefits from such processes. Therefore, it is advisable to eat apples, waiting 2-4 hours after a hearty meal.
Step 2
Eating apples on an empty stomach half an hour before breakfast, lunch or dinner contributes to the maximum absorption of all the vitamins contained in these fruits. In addition, eating apples on an empty stomach promotes weight loss and therefore improves your figure.
Step 3
The maximum amount of nutrients is contained only in natural apples. Apple preserves, jams, canned or baked fruits that have been cooked are not as rich in vitamins as fresh juicy fruits. But dried apples, by the way, are no less useful than fresh ones. It would be great to replace your usual cup of tea or coffee with freshly squeezed apple juice a couple of times a day.
Step 4
For those who want to noticeably lose weight and lose extra pounds, the apple diet is suitable. Its principle is that one fasting day a week, a person should eat only apples. One and a half kilograms of these healthy fruits should be divided into 5-6 meals. Moreover, nutritionists recommend peeling apples and cutting the core out of them.
Step 5
Sour apple varieties are good for people with low stomach acidity. And 2-3 sour apples in the morning on an empty stomach will help to cope with the problem of frequent constipation.
Step 6
Half a glass of apple juice in the morning on an empty stomach 15-20 minutes before breakfast will improve the well-being of people suffering from atherosclerosis, hypertension, gallbladder diseases, and obesity.
Step 7
But people with high acidity or stomach ulcers with fresh apples should be careful. For them, these baked fruits will be more useful.
