Summer Cut Fruits Alert: Eating Pre-Cut Fruits Can Lead to Diseases

• Dietitian Kamini Sinha warns against eating pre-cut fruits due to oxidation, which reduces Vitamin C and antioxidants.
• Cut fruits lose nutritional value and taste, becoming less beneficial for health.
• High temperatures in summer accelerate bacterial growth (Salmonella, E.coli) on cut fruits, leading to food poisoning.
• Open cut fruits risk contamination from dust and flies, which carry germs and cause health problems.
• Always cut fruits fresh and eat immediately; if stored, keep them in the fridge for a very short duration.
