What happens if you drink water after eating fruit?

We have to consume fruits to fulfill the needs of the body. Usually, the entire demand comes from the market, that is, we have to buy and eat. Very few people produce in their own gardens. Therefore, there are benefits of eating fruits. Drinking water after eating fruits can have various effects on the digestive process and the body. This can cause some problems, such as:

Fruit contains natural sugar and fiber, which are digested quickly. Drinking water slows down this process and can cause fermentation in the stomach. This can lead to gas, discomfort, and bloating. Fruit, especially citrus fruits (such as oranges, lemons) or when eaten on an empty stomach, can increase acidity in the body. Mixing water with it reduces the concentration of stomach acid, which can cause gastritis or heartburn. The fiber and sugar in fruit can mix with water and disrupt the digestive process. This can result in diarrhea, flatulence, or discomfort. The vitamins and minerals in fruit take time to be absorbed by the body. Drinking water can hinder this absorption process, as a result of which the body cannot fully absorb the necessary nutrients.
