JAKARTA - Fruits are food ingredients that must be included in the daily dining menu, to get complete nutrition.

Fruits are important as a source of nutrients such as vitamins, minerals and fiber that are good for the body.

However, eating fruit should not be arbitrary, because there are several types of fruit that are not good for consumption at the same time. If combined, not providing good benefits, it will actually cause health problems.

Consumption of bananas and avocados simultaneously should be avoided. These two fruits contain quite high levels of potassium, which if consumed in large quantities causes potassium levels in the blood to increase excessively.
