Should you chew passion fruit seeds?

1. Reasons

Passion fruit seeds contain high-quality protein and high-quality fat and are rich in nutrients. Eating them directly can supplement the amino acids, fatty acids and other substances needed by the human body. There are claims online that the seeds will cause indigestion or even be indigestible if eaten directly. In fact, based on the size of the seeds, swallowing them directly will not have much effect on the stomach and intestines. If you eat too much, it may not be fully digested and will be excreted normally with the feces.

2. Usage

① Swallow directly: Passion fruit seeds are sour. If you are naturally afraid of sour things, you can swallow them directly when eating passion fruit. While enjoying the sweet and sour taste, you can absorb rich nutrients.

② Chew and eat: After passion fruit seeds are chewed, the acidity is too high, but many people like the sour taste and popping feeling when chewing the seeds. At the same time, chewing and eating can indeed promote the intestines to digest the nutrients.

3. Notes

When children eat passion fruit, they can crush it or make it into juice, which is easier for children's tender digestive tract to absorb. At the same time, adding sweet substances such as honey and sugar can reduce the acidity and prevent the fruit acid juice from damaging the digestive tract.
