Snopes.com on Eating Fruit

July 20, 2009

Hi EveryOne & EveryBody,

i would like to thank Jessica InCreDiBle very much, for bringing to my NoTice that Eating Fruit is False AcCorDing, to http://www.snopes.com/

(BTW, i haven't thanked u yet Jessica, PerSonally, and to all the other people who have written to me.Thank u all very much, but i am still very BackLogged, in RePlying or ResPonDing to any of your emails, due to Time ConStraints, and i will do so, as soon as i possibly can, so can u please ForGive me?)

Here is the link to it:-

So, i spent some time, going into ReSearch, and found these 3 warnings, about eating fruit on an empty stomach...that is the only time, i could afford, so for the rest of the warnings, so could u please do a ReSearch by yourself...Thanks:-

1) DiabeTics must strictly EliMiNate all Sugars from their diet, or else it will spike up their InSuLin, ThereFore if u still want to eat fruit, please do ConSult your DocTor or PhySiCian about it first, and one InTerNet site claims that if a DiaBeTic PaTient wants to eat fruit, they must eat it ToGeTher with a ProTein...don't know whether that is true or not, and since i am not a DiaBeTic, so i do not AdVoCate that at all, as i do not know at all, what are the safe foods for DiaBeTics, and not all the InForMaTion in the InTerNet is TrustWorthy, b'coz some are OutDated and some are ConFlicting, in giving AdVice.

Since i do not like to MenTion Brand Names, those ArTiFiCial Sugars that u put InTo your BeVeRages, are very bad for your KidNeys, (some have warnings, esp those on the SugarLess sweets & Diet Sodas), b'coz if u do not take care of your DiaBeTes, then EvenTually, your KidNeys will fail, and then u might have to go for KidNey DiaLysis which is worse, or u might go blind EvenTualLy, and most of your other body OrGans will fail too, which will ReSult in u having a host of DiSeaSes, due to to KidNey Failure, so please do take care.

Here is another advice for DiaBeTics, from another member, {with many thanks to U, and thank U very much for your PerMission, and which i forgot to reply...sorry...sigh...which i just ReMemBered } :-

"Good advice but I believe it only applies to organic produce. Also, one man's food is another man's poison.

Some people are allergic to many fruits and must be careful which ones they eat. Also, diabetics should never drink any fruit juice and should keep their fruit consumption down to a level, where their blood sugar does not spike drastically. Diabetics who need fruits for their fiber content should include some rind, in with the fruit itself and sometimes should eat the fruit about two hours after a meal when the stomach is ALMOST empty, but with some residual food from the prior meal.

Since diabetics have digestive problems the fruit enzymes may help complete the digestive process. If this cannot be done some digestive enzymes should be included with the meal."

2) Eating Fruits for Non-DiaBeTic PaTients are better, on an EmpTy StoMach, b'coz of the NaTuRal EnZymes, then will be DiGesTed easily and u will get the NuTrients from it, but some people recommend juicing fruits, but, i have read that eating fruits, is better than juicing them, for the FiBer or RoughAGe, except in the the case of raw VeGeTaBles, in which case, then by all means juice them, but be CareFul of some VeGeTables and Fruits also, as they are ConTraDicTory to some MeDiCaTions that u are taking...so BeWare...and also in the case of wax, on the OutSide of all Apples, and IrriDaTed Fruits.

{Oh btw, i changed my mind now, after reading about YesTerDay's PosTing about Dr. Tom Wu's AdVice on why juicing is better...fyi, i wrote this and wanted to post it last week, but held it back, as i had to ask PerMission from the above author, who wrote that AdVice for DiaBeTics}

AlThough i do not like to recommend any links at all...i chanced upon one, that is very InTeResTing, that is about DeToxiFiCaTion, so please read this, at your own risk:-

3) Citrus Fruits are not to be eaten on an EmpTy StoMach, since it is too AciDic and many cause GasTric, or other Health AilMents...and i found that all in all, all types of Melons are to be taken SoleLy alone, and not to be mixed with other Fruits.

Here are some of the good links, which are ConTriButed and ProViDed by Pamela {Thanks again for your PerMission, Pamela}:-

The following links are to charts that will give you digestion times for foods.

One chart says it will take 3 hours to digest proteins while another says 4.

I always err on the side of caution and go with the longer times.

So, keep this in mind when reading the discrepancies.

P/S - When i went to the WebSearch Engines, i found that other people are taken in by this, and have blogged it, and was also PresCribed on their Health WebSites...just type in "eating fruit on an empty stomach", and u will know what i mean...and i ApoLoGize to All, that i did not do any ReSearch, when i posted this ArTiCle on Eating Fruit.

With Due ApoLoGies To All & Please May U ForGive me,
