Eating fruits in the right way helps maximize their nutritional benefits and reduces potential health risks. Always wash fruits thoroughly under clean running water to remove dirt, bacteria, and pesticide residues. Peeling fruits when appropriate can further reduce surface contaminants.

Choose fresh, ripe, and seasonal fruits whenever possible. Avoid fruits that show signs of spoilage, mold, or unusual odor. Eating whole fruits is generally healthier than drinking fruit juice, as whole fruits provide more dietary fiber and help control sugar intake.

Consume fruits in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Excessive intake of certain fruits may increase calorie or natural sugar consumption. People with specific health conditions should consider their individual needs and follow guidance from a qualified healthcare or nutrition professional.
