Goodness Of Fruits

Is there anything common between a fruit and our body?

Well, it may surprise you but the answer is ‘yes’. Both the fruit and our body consist of water in a large quantity. The structure of our body is such that there is almost 80% water, stored in our body. Similarly a fruit also consists of 80% water. Spend a few minutes to think over this fact and you will yourself discover how logical it is for the human body to consume a food that contains the same amount of water, as does your own body. Our body requires lots of water and the only thing that meets this requirement perfectly is a fruit. Can you name any eatable on the earth other than a fruit that contains 80% water on average? This question is quite difficult to answer so we can say that a fruit is a complete natural food for a human body.

Fruit is 100% cholesterol free

High cholesterol is not considered good for a healthy body. It is an interesting fact about the fruits that they do not contain much cholesterol. However several animal products such as meat and dairy products contain a lot of cholesterol. So either avoid completely or reduce consumption of animal products as much as possible and make it a habit to have at least one fruit per day.

Fruit stimulates memory

We all want to have a sharp memory, do not we? Well the fruits are helpful here also. Another surprising and interesting fact about the fruit is that a fruit is the best fuel for our brain. If someone consumes fruit on a regular basis then his or her brain becomes capable of recalling information faster and more easily. May be here you came to know something new about the fruits but it is better late than never. So just keep this in your mind forever. Our lives have become so busy in the modern times that we hardly care about our eating habits and most of the time in the hustle-bustle of everyday life we forget to have proper diet also. In such case the fruit could be a real good friend who not only cope with the extra demand of our body but also stimulate our memory and give us energy to keep going.
