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.
