Never Eat these Fruits on Empty Stomach..

One word of advise... NEVER EAT THESE FRUITS ON EMPTY STOMACHS... Fruits r not only tasty, but healthy, as they r rich in vitamins, minerals, n other nutritious subtances. but some fruits contain subtances harmful to the human body, so it is necessary to be careful when selecting fr the wide choice available...


1) PINEAPPLE


Fresh pineapples contain a special protease n 5-hydroxyptamine. The latter make blood vessels (especially those in the brain) shrink, which may cause headaches n a rise in blood pressure. That is why some people experience headaches after eating too mush fresh pineapple. Some people r even allergic to pineapple; after eating only a little, their skin may turn red n itch, n their limbs, mouth n lips become numb. They may also feel bilious n vomit, or develop severe stomachaches. In cases of extreme pineapple allergy, difficulty in breathing, the onset of shock n even death may result.

It is easy to avoid such abnormal situations. First, people may know they r allergic to pineapple should avoid this fruit. Second, cut the pineapples into small pieces n soak them in cool salt water for 20 - 30 mins before eating them. The salt water dissolves n eliminates the harmful subtances. Nevertheless, eating too much pineapple should be avoided in any circumstances.

2) BANANA



Bananas r sweet n soft, n high in calories. But peoplewith weak stomachs should not eat too much of this fruit, for the carbohydrates can ferment in the stomach, causing a bloated feeling n diarrhoea.

3) SUGARCANE & LYCHEES



Sugarcane n lychees contain large amounts of sugar. If too much is taken on an empty stomach, the body may absorb too much sugar, resulting in a sharp rise in the blood's osmotic pressure n possibly causing "high osmotic coma".

4) TANGERINE

If we eat a tangerine on an empty stomach, the large amount of sugar n organic acid it contains will stimulate stomach mucous, causing stomachache n stomach distension.


5) PERSIMMONS



Persimmons contain certain subtances that easily react with hydrochloric acid in the gastric juices, depositing sediment. Too many persimmons taken on empty stomach will cause the sediment to accumulate n form stones that will affect the digestion. The stones may block the exit of the stomach n cause acute stomach expansion.

    Don't eat garlic - in extreme cases it may cause bad breadth.
