Don't rush to eat fruit after dinner

饭后别急着吃水果

However, someone whose digestive function is better eating fruits after a meal immediately may cause stomach upset, because the food need 2 hours or longer to digest. If eating fruits after a meal immediately (especially hard fruits such as apples and pears), both can aggravate³ the burden of gastrointestinal, and will lead to gastric⁴ bowel⁵ to bilge gas. Therefore, after the meal 1 ~ 2 hours to eat fruit is more scientific.

消化不良的人饭后吃一个苹果等带皮水果有益消化，因为苹果等果皮中含有丰富的果酸。但是，消化功能较好的人饭后立即吃水果却可能导致胃部不适，因为食物下肚后需要2小时或更长时间才能消化。如果饭后立即吃水果(特别是苹果和梨等较硬水果)，既会加重胃肠负担，又会导致胃肠胀气。因此，饭后1~2小时吃水果更科学。
