Can I eat durian during a fat loss period?
I'm 23 years old this year, and I really love eating durian. I'm wondering if I can eat durian during my fat loss phase?

In general, you can eat durian in moderation during a fat-loss period, but it is important to control the amount and frequency of consumption.
Durian is rich in protein, vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin C, calcium, iron, dietary fiber, and various amino acids. The dietary fiber in durian helps promote intestinal motility, prevent constipation, and provide a certain feeling of fullness. However, it should be consumed in moderation, as durian is relatively high in calories, and excessive intake may hinder fat-loss efforts. Durian is also considered a "heaty" fruit, and overconsumption may lead to symptoms of internal heat such as dry mouth, sore throat, and constipation.
During the fat-loss period, attention should be given to overall caloric intake and nutritional balance. Although durian is nutritious, it should not be the sole food source during this period. While consuming durian, it is advisable to reduce intake of other high-calorie foods to maintain overall caloric balance. Additionally, attention should be given to balanced nutrition and caloric intake combined with appropriate physical activity to achieve the goal of healthy fat loss. If you have significant obesity and a clear fat-loss goal, it is recommended to develop a personalized diet plan under the guidance of a professional nutritionist or doctor.
