Dried fruit is very nutritious. Dried fruit retains all mineral components, although vitamin C will be lost when made into dried fruit, but minerals such as potassium, magnesium and iron will not be lost, and it is concentrated because of water loss, and its content is higher than that of fresh fruit. All kinds of dried fruits are good sources of potassium, and proper consumption is beneficial to the body.

Can I eat dried fruits during weight loss?

It is not recommended to eat dried fruits during weight loss, because the sugar is too high and many nutrients are lost. To lose weight, we should limit the intake of fruit. The traditional powdered sugar is sucrose, which will be metabolized into glucose, causing satiety to human body, while most fruits contain fructose, which is metabolized by the liver without satiety and is easy to be taken in excess. However, eating fresh fruit is only limited, such as eating an apple with a meal and an orange after a meal.
