I love fruit. I can eat it any time of the day. I can eat it before or after a meal. I prefer to eat it after I eat my meals though. I would like to eat more before so I will get full faster.

Yes its absolutely right that we should eat fruits before meal.I also take fruits before my meal.It is desirable that there should be proper time gap fruits and our meal.It is seen also that if we consume meal first then we may not have any urge to have any fruit as our stomatch may feel full.

In case we leave eating of Fruits after Meals ; we might even be faced with a situation where our stomach(s) is so full that we have to totally skip Fruits . So;we would be losing out on the Nutritive benefits of Fruits in this case. So my vote is with having Fruits before Meals .Preferably ; 1 to 2 Hours before Meals . Regards Sweety_81

I like to eat my fruits after meal. I think if I eat fruit before meal I will never eat my meal anymore for just about two fruits we will feel full and will lose our appetite. Besides fruits are best eaten as dessert. Have a nice day..

I eat fruits before eating my main meal. Because in that way I tend to feel full more easily.

curious hi well I dont think it hurts you to eat f ruit as a dessert as I have done it for seventy some years , and I have never had any bad results. I did not have to ask a specialist as I sort of like to think for myself.

I usually eat fruits after the meal or in between meats. I regard the fruits as something like a prize and I enjoyed it the last.

To be honest, I like to eat fruits after meal, although I've had meal, I sometimes find it not enough, so I have to eat some fruit as supplement.
