Why is eating an apple at night a poisonous apple?

Because eating apples at night will cause the apples to accumulate in the stomach and intestines, making them unable to be digested, increasing the burden on the liver. Therefore, the apple eaten at night becomes a poisonous apple. In fact, as long as there is no problem with your digestive system, all the food you eat will be digested. The question is how long it takes to digest. If you eat apples at night and are worried about indigestion when going to bed, you can eat them one hour in advance and go to bed when the apples are almost digested.
