Fruit has more calories than meat. In fact, this is not an alarmist, but a true story. But eating some fruit can lose weight, which is also possible. The two seem to be somewhat contradictory. In fact, whether fruit can lose weight depends on how to eat and how to choose.

How to eat fruit?

The way to eat fruit is very simple. Many people may open their mouths and say, "Isn't fruit just eaten directly?" Fruit can really be eaten directly. However, some people will make juice to drink, thinking that this way of eating is relatively tall and seems to be more nutritious and tasty.

In fact, the way fruit is eaten can really determine whether fruit can lose weight. Dietary fiber is an important nutrient for human body and an indispensable nutrient for weight loss. Dietary fiber will wrap food after entering the gastrointestinal tract, delay the digestion and absorption of food and increase satiety. So as to help control weight and play a role in losing weight.

Dietary fiber mainly exists in miscellaneous grains, vegetables and fruits, and the dietary fiber contained in fruits is mainly concentrated in the peel of fruits. When eating fruit, the fruit that can be eaten with skin should be eaten with skin. When fruit is made into juice, the dietary fiber contained in the fruit is lost in the process of juice making. Eating fruit will make you feel full, but drinking fruit juice will not make you feel full. In this way, the amount of fruit juice is increased, and drinking fruit juice is more likely to make you obese.

Choice of fruit

When buying fruit, we often ask if the fruit is sweet. The sugar content of fruit determines the calorie of fruit. Some fruits may not be sweet to you, but they are high in calories. This kind of fruit is simply a booster for fattening. Durian is definitely a "sweet temptation". Durian's calories mainly come from its super high sugar content. The fat content in durian is about 5%, but the sugar content is as high as 27%.

Coconut includes not only sweet coconut juice, but also white and fragrant coconut meat in coconut shell. Coconut meat tastes mellow, which is the main source of thick coconut fragrance in coconut milk and coconut milk. However, although coconut meat is delicious, it is absolutely authentic, and the oil content in coconut is as high as 12%. It is said that avocado can replace butter because it contains high fat content. Eating avocado is almost equal to drinking oil directly, which increases the risk of obesity.

Sugar content of fruit

According to the sugar content of fruits, most fruits are suitable for eating when losing weight. For example, the sugar content of grass plum and peach is only about 6%. The sugar content of yellow peach, cherry, lemon, orange, pineapple, plum, grape and apricot is also between 7%- 10%. However, the sugar content of persimmon, sand fruit, pear, orange, grapefruit, apple, litchi yam, apple and banana is between 1 1%-20%. These fruits are very common in people's daily life, and their glycemic index is mostly below 46 (except pineapple and banana), so they are all suitable for diabetics to eat in moderation. It should be noted that dried fruits made from fresh fruits by dehydration and sun drying are part of fruits, but they are low in moisture and high in sugar, so diabetics and dieters should try to avoid eating them.
