When is the best time to take fruits?

On an empty stomach or the first meal of the day?

The best time to eat fruit is an hour before meals in the morning. It is never good to eat fruit as the same time with food. The digestion process and rate of both are not the same. One can begin to slow the digestion of the other which can lead to indigestion. It is either one or the other. There should be a time difference.

Also, 2hours after Meals. Early evening and never close to bed time. This is to allow your fruits digest before you sleep.
