Why fruits are not good to eat at night?

Most of us have this irresistible desire of having something sweet at night. But fruits are not a suggestable one at night. Fruits are healthy, juicy, nutritious, naturally sweet and are better than other sugary stuff.

As per Ayurveda, there should be a gap between your meal and fruits because both have different effects on the digestive system. The ancient medical system also states that one should consume their meal at least 3-4 hours before going to bed. If they are taken together, then our body first digests the fruits followed by the meal. This will lead to indigestion and your body will not able to absorb all the nutrients from the meal.

Some people also believe that having fruits just before going to bed will induce sleep, but it is just the opposite. Fruits release sugar in the body, which will spike your energy and you will have difficulty in falling asleep.

Having said that, it is not that you cannot have fruits at night, but you have to be mindful of it. You should have fruit at least 30 minutes after your meal

Your fruit choice before bedtime is equally important. Do not eat a plate full of fruits at night. If you are craving sweets then only have a slice of fruits that are low in sugar and high in fibre like melon, pear, or kiwi. Also, do not sleep immediately after eating fruits.

It is important to keep a gap between your meal timing and fruit timing. If possible try to have fruits earlier in the evening before your dinner. This way your digestive system will be able to digest the food properly.

WHY ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC OCEAN ARE NOT MIXED?

Nearly 72% of the earth is filled with water and it is present with different names- oceans, seas, rivers. Why are they named differently? There are five oceans namely Artic ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Indian ocean and Antarctic ocean . All the oceans are different in their physical and biological character called ocean clines. When we look at the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean junction, they do not mix. Is there any invisible Wall in between them? Many scientists have conducted research to solve this mystery. The Atlantic and Pacific Ocean have different chemical composition. The salinity of the water in the Atlantic Ocean is five times more than the Pacific Ocean. The density of water is also different, so even marine animals in Atlantic Ocean will not go to the Pacific Ocean. They cannot survive in other oceans. Atlantic and Pacific Ocean meet at Cape Horn. The narrow straight line formed by the water bodies is called Drake Strait. The Pacific Ocean is ...

The Chemical Lake

Spotted Lake or Lake khiluk in Canada is richly concentrated with various minerals. It contains dense deposits of magnesium sulfate, calcium, and sodium sulfates. It also contains high concentrations of eight other minerals and lower amounts of silver and titanium. Most of the water in the lake evaporates over the summer, revealing colorful mineral deposits. Large ‘spots’ on the lake appear and are colored according to the mineral composition and seasonal amount of precipitation. Magnesium sulfate, which crystallizes in the summer, is a major contributor to spot color. Originally known to the First Nations of the Okanagan Valley (Native American Tribe) as Khiluk, Spotted Lake was for centuries and remains revered as a sacred site thought to provide therapeutic waters. It is the most mineralized lake in the world. Each spot holds a different cure due to the unique chemical content found within each puddle. Lake Khiluk is considered a saline endorheic alkali lake. The Okanag...

Why Artificial Intelligence is important in Future

Why AI is important : As per the survey , 84% of businesses are moving towards an AI enabled ecosystem to sustain in the competitive world.Artificial intelligence is impacting the future of virtually every industry and every human being. Artificial intelligence has acted as the main driver of emerging technologies like big data, robotics and IoT, and it will continue to act as a technological innovator for the foreseeable future. In the long term, an important question is what will happen if the quest for strong AI succeeds and an ecosystem becomes better than humans at all cognitive tasks. As pointed out by I.J.Good in 1965, designing smarter systems is itself a cognitive task. Such a system could potentially undergo recursive self improvement triggering an intelligence explosion leaving human intellect far behind. By inventing revolutionary new technologies such a superintelligence might help us eradicate war , disease and poverty and so the creation of strong AI mi...
