Should fruit really be eaten first and not at the end of a meal?

Answer 1

yes because it is digested quickly. it will have to wait behind the other foods before being sent forward. You may get an upset stomach. Supposedly eating fruits first is a way to prevent toxins (not dangerous) but in regards to a detox diet. But for me I eat them when i want to eat them. I can not follow all the rules

Answer 2

You can eat it anytime you want(x In China, they ALWAYS eat watermelon after every single meal, no matter what part of China you are in. This is symbolizes the days when China was being taken advantage of by the other countries. They felt as if they were a watermelon, and everyone just kept grabbing a piece. So that is why they eat fruit, watermelons, at the end of their meal. It is a reminder of how much respect they have gotten since then! Hope I helped(x
