FREE EBOOKLET http://www.sweetnaturalliving.com Some people seem to think that we should be eating the skin of fruits to maximize our nutrient intake and not waste anything. Let’s talk about that for a little bit.
First of all, why do we need “more” nutrients? Isn’t “enough” enough? How do we know what’s enough? The tasty part of the fruit is tasty for a reason!! It’s tasty because it matches our nutritional needs! It makes no sense that we need to eat foods that are not appealing to our senses just because we think we need more nutrients.
Whole, fresh, ripe, raw foods in their natural state that appeals to our senses are the best foods to eat. Most fruit skins do not taste good, but the flesh inside does! Eat the tasty part and throw away the rest to decompose and go back to nature!
Watermelon rinds are disgusting and I imagine very difficult to digest! The flesh inside however is one of the best foods I know!
If it ain’t delicious – it ain’t nutritious!

Food is it all but there's important Nutrients in this in the skin well do You think animals other animals eat the Part of the food that's disgusting and Inedible just because there's important Nutrients there you know there's Nutrients in everything there's new Signatures in grass there nutrients in Toxic herbs there's nutrients in deadly Poisonous mushrooms but just because There's nutrients in there doesn't mean That we should be getting those Nutrients from that food you know there Might be calcium for example in the skin Here but there's also tells human flesh So I'll just eat the flesh and get my Calcium from there rather than trying to Sort of maximize my nutrition by eating Everything now nature design the perfect Package for us where the edible the Delicious part of the fruit is what we Should be eating and the skin and the Rind unless it's very delicious on its Own I think we should just leave it Alone and you also got to think about Why we find certain things delicious and Other things not in my book delicious Equals nutritious if something is Delicious to us it because we need it It's because we have a physiology Adapted to enjoying that because we need It if something is disgusting it means To leave it alone Don't eat that if something is delicious
