Why don't you eat watermelon on Mid-Autumn Festival?

You can eat watermelon in the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Watermelon is more than 94% water, but its sugar content is also high. Watermelon with normal sweetness has a sugar content of 5%, so the calorie of watermelon is very high, and the calorie of watermelon is 250 kcal/kg.

That is to say, if you eat a big watermelon every day, it is about 8 to 10 kg, that is, you consume 1000 calories to 1250 calories, while a bowl of ordinary rice has about 200 calories. In other words, eating a watermelon is equivalent to eating five or six bowls of rice. So eating watermelon for dinner is not acceptable.

Watermelon is rich in sugar. If you eat too much before going to bed at night, it will increase insulin and promote fat synthesis.

After a long time, the belly will grow out.

Eating watermelon as a midnight snack for a long time will thicken the accumulated sugar and fat in your body, and you will get fat soon. Therefore, eating watermelon as a midnight snack is not acceptable.
