Can I eat fruits that are out of season?
Off-season fruits refer to fruits that are not ripe under natural conditions. These fruits should not be eaten or eaten less.
Because out-of-season fruits generally use chemical hormones such as enlarging agents, reddening agents, and ripening agents, fruits and vegetables that use enlarging agents are larger, have strange shapes, and have a lighter taste than normal fruits and vegetables, making them taste bad and cannot be stored for a long time.
During the natural ripening process, fruits release a small amount of ethylene, which promotes ripening. In order to facilitate storage and transportation, fruit farmers also pick nearly mature fruit crystals in advance and use ethylene to ripen them before selling them on the market. Generally, this ripening method does not cause harm to the human body.
However, in order to make the fruits available for sale in advance, the green fruits that are far away from maturity need to be ripened, which requires a large amount of ethylene. It is harmful to human body after eating. Therefore, it is best not to buy or eat fruits out of season.
