Some facts about fruits

I love my handy fruits and vege guide to healthy eating...

Since I was young, I have always been intrigued by all the repeated "reminders" by my mum about what food (fruits/ veg) should not be consumed with certain food. I remember my mum used to have this pictorial table format book (lost now) that list all down commonly consumed food that acts "against" each other..

Previously I was too young to understand the logic or reasoning between the "lethal" pairing but now I do. Not all old folks tales are without grounds. Like what I had told my friends before, if the "food" is NOT in a form that is recognisable to your grandma, it's probably bad for you and your body. (eg: all the junk food that have been invented over the last 30 decades or more)

I was just flipping through my newly acquired food guide and found interesting facts below..
