🥦 Food Digestion Guide: What to Eat and When! 🍎
⏱ Digestion times vary depending on the type of food. Here’s a quick guide:
✨ Very Fast (30–60 min): Water, juice, smoothies
🍌 Fast (1–2 hrs): Fruits (melon, grapes, oranges), white bread, white rice
🥗 Medium (2–3 hrs): Vegetables, fish, chicken, oats
🌰 Slow (3–4 hrs): Beans, lentils, whole grains, nuts, eggs, avocado
🍖 Very Slow (4–8+ hrs): Red meat, cheese, fried foods, pizza, heavy meals
💡 Daytime Tip:
• Eat light and fast-digesting foods in the morning or early afternoon (fruits, smoothies, yogurt, oats) — they give quick energy without feeling heavy.
• Medium-digesting foods like vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains are great for lunch to keep you energized.
• Very slow foods (heavy meats, fried foods) are best avoided late in the day to prevent sluggishness and poor sleep.
🥄 Quick Tip: Match your meals to your energy needs — light in the morning, balanced at lunch, lighter at night.
