Summer Grapes: Eat Right or Risk Health! Expert Warns Against Empty Stomach Consumption

• Ayurveda expert Dr. Santosh Maurya advises against eating grapes on an empty stomach, especially in summer, as it can lead to stomach heaviness, cold, flu, or cough.
• The ideal time to consume grapes is in the afternoon or after a meal, when the body's digestive system is most efficient, ensuring proper nutrition.
• Diabetic patients should eat grapes in limited amounts due to high natural sugar content and avoid them on an empty stomach to prevent blood sugar spikes.
• Grapes are beneficial for hydration and cooling in summer, but consuming them at the wrong time can cause health issues.
• Other fruits like watermelon, banana, mango, orange, and pineapple should also be avoided on an empty stomach to prevent acidity, irritation, and digestive problems.
