Am thinking about this question from many days now because from few weeks I have adopted this good habit of eating at least 1 apple in a day although I missed few days but at least I started and after consuming an apple I like to drink water but I try to wait for at least 15 minutes to drink water. What should be the ideal time if there is any to drink water after we eat apple or any other fruit?

In my opinion there is no ideal time to drink water. In the end it is just water. By the way why are you eating an apple daily? Is it for weight loss or something?

@jvicentevalera People should not drink water after eating acidic fruits, it dilutes the gastric fluids and makes difficult to digest the fruits. If people are dieting, better to drink water before eating and wait a bit after the meals, the longer the food stays in the stomach, the more it gets absorbed by your body. I love to stay slim and I researched a lot about food and diet.

I do not really worry about when to drink water I drink it when I want to. Why do we have to wait to drink?

That's OK but we need to have some gap

You ought to wait for at least 45 minutes to one hour after eating fruits- apples etc before having water. Having with less gap is not good.

Yes you're right we need to wait

15 minutes is not enough, the apple is acidic and the stomach needs more than 15 minute to digest an apple, wait one hour.

Thanks for the answer. I'll try to wait for an hour. Although it's tough but at least I'll be aware of this fact
