Research shows that the average person in the US eats about 20% more calories now than their ancestors did in the last century. Even though people are becoming more aware of what they eat, it’s not always easy to follow all the rules for healthy eating. For instance, if you eat apples at the wrong time, you might get bowel problems instead of better digestion. Lucky for us, it’s not rocket science, and the basic rules are easy to understand.
CuriousMob.com is ready to bust some myths about healthy eating habits and give you some tips on when to eat your favorite foods to get the most out of them.

Bananas might seem like a good way to start the day, but if you eat them on an empty stomach, they can actually make you feel less energetic.

People with irritable bowel syndrome may also be at risk if they eat bananas.
