What medicine does postpartum edema take? Eating fruit 20-40 minutes before meals is the best way to lose weight.
Timing: It is best to eat fruit 20-40 minutes before meals, because fruit or juice is rich in fructose and glucose, which can be quickly absorbed by the human body, improve blood sugar concentration and reduce appetite. The crude fiber in fruit can also make the stomach feel full. In addition, eating fruit before meals can significantly reduce the demand for fatty foods, thus indirectly preventing the adverse consequences of excessive fat accumulation in the body. Some fruits are "exotic flowers", which can promote digestion, such as pineapple and kiwi fruit rich in protease, lemon and hawthorn rich in organic acids. For this kind of fruit, you can eat it about an hour after meals. How much fruit is the most suitable?
Fruit is not a low-energy food. Because it tastes sweet and easy to eat more, the sugar in it will be converted into fat and piled up. For example, every100g strawberry has about 30 calories. If you like strawberries and can eat a lot at a time, the calorie intake is amazing, just like eating half a medium-sized watermelon, you will unconsciously consume 680 calories, which is equivalent to about three bowls of rice. Therefore, when eating fruit diet meals, we should control the consumption of fruit. Many fruits, such as persimmon, hawthorn, almond and pineapple, can't be eaten on an empty stomach. In order to lose weight, when eating fruits before meals, it is best to choose fruits that are not too sour and astringent, such as apples, pears, bananas, grapes, watermelons and melons. It is not advisable to eat more fruits after meals. It is difficult to lose weight by eating fruits after meals. Because eating fruit after a meal is equivalent to eating more sugar, which is easy to be converted into fat and stored in the body, and may also gain weight. Especially don't eat a lot of fruit after dinner, because synthetic fat is most likely to accumulate in the body after eating at night.
Edema is also fat, but it still makes new mothers helpless. In fact, obesity or edema indicate that there is moisture in the body. Because the water in the body can't flow with the blood and stay between cells in the body, people "swell up" and look bloated and obese.
