Eating a healthy amount of fruit improves the ability for the body to lose weight. Fruit contains eighty percent water just like the human body. This means that extra water weight is easily disposed of and the body only absorbs the nutrients.
There was no limit to how much fruit they ate; as long as only fruit was consumed, exam scores saw a significant improvement (Fruit and).
Different fruits require different storage arrangements to get the best use out of them without becoming wasteful. For example, apples stored in the refrigerator in a plastic bag stay crisper and keep more of the nutrients helpful to the body. While apples store better in the refrigerator, bananas keep better in a fruit bowl at room temperature.
Bananas kept in the refrigerator will only turn black from decay; they will not ripen. After decay begins, the banana loses the nutrients desired. Although some fruits keep freshness better either in the refrigerator or at room temperature, some fruits do not lose nutritious value either way. Most citrus fruits fall into this category. For example, oranges stored on a counter at room temperature last a week without loss of nutrients, and when kept in the refrigerator, they last two weeks before discarding becomes necessary.
