No other foods have this much water, and that too water that is naturally purified and rich with vitamins, minerals and enzymes!

The rest of the fruit is mainly fiber, along with smaller quantities of proteins and carbohydrates. This means that you can say goodbye to all sorts of digestive problems such as constipation, diarrhea, cramping, irregular bowel-movement, colon-cancer etc, just by eating fruits! Fruits help expel harmful toxins from your body as they regulate and regularize bowel-movements.

How to eat Fruit?

The best way to eat fruits is to eat them raw, fresh and organic and without any additions. However, you can include them in salads with other greens, sprouts, nuts, veggies, etc with light and minimum dressings using dairy-based products or healthy oils like olive or sesame in addition to some spices. Remember, the simpler you keep it, the better.

You should eat at least five portions of fruits in a day. Fruits are much more effective than diet supplements as they present you all the nutrients in an easily-absorb-able form and in ideal combinations.

There are plenty of fruit choices to explore, from the local to the exotic for the fruit-lover. It is best however to eat that which is organic, local and seasonal, as you body will be genetically accustomed to utilize it better. While organic fruit may look less appealing (it’s usually not as big/polished), it will be richer in taste and flavor and definitely way healthier than anything else.

Pick fruits that look fresh and blemish free. Check if they’ve been coated with wax (apples often are to make them look glossy and fresh longer), color, or insecticide sprays. Buy whole fruits instead of cut and sectioned ones as fruits are delicate and prone to oxidizing quickly if left peeled and cut for long.
