It represents a food supplement. It is good to include fresh fruit in hot, warm weather. It cools and refreshes the body, is a source of vitamins and fibre, cleanses the intestines and replenishes fluids.

When choosing, we should try to prefer local fruit, and consume fruit imported from tropical and subtropical regions in summer and in smaller quantities. Imported fruit from the tropics and subtropics has a cooling nature and is not suitable for consumption in winter, or for weakened individuals, children under three years of age, and those who have allergies.
