Many of us search for the best and healthiest food but we don't know what is the right thing to eat and when. Fruits as we all know have a lot of benefits but sometimes it can harm you. The best way to eat fruits is with an empty stomach, if you eat for example two slices of bread then have an apple, the apple is ready to go straight throw the stomach but instead of that the bread is preventing it from doing so.

In the meantime the whole meal rots and ferments and turns to acid. The minute the fruit comes into contact with the food in the stomach and digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil. Mixing fruits with other kind of food will produces gas or running to the toilet, so all you have to do is eat fruit on an empty stomach or before meals.
