Do you need to chew passion fruit seeds before eating?

1. Is it necessary?

The seeds of passion fruit can be chewed and eaten directly. They will have a sour taste after chewing. If they are not sour, you can eat them with the juice, which will taste much better. You can eat it chewed or not, depending on your preference. If you don’t like it, you can use a juicer to squeeze it into juice. If you worry it’s too sour, you can add some honey or sugar.

It may be difficult to digest if you don't chew it because its seeds are very hard. It is best for children not to eat it directly. Try to squeeze it into juice to drink. If it is eaten directly, it will increase the burden on the stomach and intestines.

2. When is the best time to eat?

1. Eat before meals: Eating it one hour before meals can increase appetite. However, you cannot eat it on an empty stomach, as it will cause stomach discomfort.

2. Eat after meals: Eating 30 minutes after a meal can promote gastrointestinal absorption and digestion. Passion fruit is rich in dietary fiber, which is beneficial to gastrointestinal motility.

3. Notes

People with poor stomach or stomach diseases should eat as little as possible. Eating it may cause damage to the stomach and be detrimental to recovery from the disease. In addition, people who are allergic to it should definitely not eat it. When you are pregnant, you should pay attention to the amount of food you eat and don't eat too much. Eating a moderate amount can supplement nutrition for your body.
