๐ฅMYTH๐ฅ
Some โexpertsโ claim eating fruit slows your digestion so that food ferments in your stomach, creating a long list of issues.
But โฆ
๐Fact 1: Eating does slow your digestion, a little.
One study found people who ate fruit fiber had a stomach emptying rate of 82 mins, vs. 70 mins for people who didnโt eat fruit fiber.
This is not long enough to cause food to spoil in your stomach.
๐Fact 2: Your stomach is specifically designed to prevent the growth of bacteria. Stomach acid helps kill bacteria and prevents microbial growth.
๐Fact 3: Slower digestion can actually be a good thing, as it can help you feel full for a longer period of time.
โ What are some other food myths youโve heard? โฌ๏ธโฌ๏ธโฌ๏ธ
Have an amazing evening,
