Some people have the habit of sprinkling salt on cut fruits before eating them. There are some benefits – the fruit tastes better and there are other reasons as well.

The fact is the by sprinkling salt, the taste of the fruit doubles. Sprinkling salt helps prevent the growth of the micro-germs and bacterias in the fruits and helps keep fruits fresh.

Salt functions as a cleanser, So, when the fruits are kept in salt water for some time, the insecticides and other chemicals on the fruit are removed.

Many fruits such as lemon, orange, and grapes create more acidity in the stomach. However, sprinkling salt before taking them neutralizes the acid generated in the stomach and prevents any digestion problems.

Especially when we take fruits of sour taste (citrus fruits), after sprinkling salt, the sour quality of the fruits get neutralized and the taste increases.

When we take fruits which are yet fully ripe, it is better to sprinkle salt and take as it would reduce the raw smell.
