Today I want to cover some interesting things about fruit. Fruit contains vitamin C, phytonutrients, and fiber. But does the bad outweigh the good?
Fruits have at least 5 times more sugar than vegetables. In fact, 85% of a piece of fruit is sugar. If you’re eating fruit for health reasons, you may want to get your nutrients from a different source.
Fruits have very low amounts of many nutrients that your body needs, including:
• Protein
• Fat
• Iron
• B vitamins
• Calcium
• Zinc
• Omega-3
• Vitamin D
Certain fruits have lower amounts of sugar and are fine to consume in small amounts, including:
• Raspberries
• Blackberries
• Blueberries
• Strawberries
Fruit contains glucose and fructose. Fructose might be low on the glycemic index, but it’s not a healthy alternative to sugar. Only the liver can metabolize fructose, which means it can overload the liver and cause a cascade of issues.
Other problems with fructose:
• It causes you to feel less satisfied
• It increases cortisol
• It decreases insulin sensitivity
• It contributes to a fatty liver

You missed the point. Also fruits these days are genetically modified and sprayed with pesticides and who knows what other chemicals at any given moment. Just washing them won't help. 🤣 If You're fortunate to have Your own biological garden with fruits then sure. Or neighbor? I wish I had house and garden full of fruits and vegetables. 🥺 But average person these days can't afford that anymore. Sugar is sugar no matter how You put it lol. And excess sugar will lead to fat storage. With possible exceptions like fast metabolism perhaps. Donuts or cakes are just worse because they have more carbs. It's bread with sugar basically. And we all know that bread is also bad. 🤣

We grew up eating all kinds of 🍏 🍌 🍉 🍎 every single day... my mom weighs 136, my dad 132. No fatty liver or NACL or diabetes, thanks be to God.

Eric, I think you're disregarding a crucial point when it comes to fruit: *The enzymes that come packaged with fresh fruit.* You can't be pointing out the amount of sugar with no regard to the amount of pre-packaged enzymes that will help you break that sugar down. And I have to say from personal experience that it's practically impossible to overeat fruit. That's because fruit will actually satisfy you, contrary to refined sugars - *that is a fact.* The enzymes that come with fresh fruit are the most important reason why you should *NEVER buy or consume **_pasteurized_** fruit juice,* which makes up the *majority* of fruit juice products with many of them also containing *concentrates.* Ideally, you shouldn't be drinking (or cooking) your fruit at all - you should be *eating* your fruit. Even if you juice fresh fruit with a juice machine, it's never as beneficial as eating the fruit. In that regard, smoothies are much better than juices from a health standpoint. Natural sugars (no refining whatsoever) are generally harmless *until you **_heat_** them.* So, don't heat honey, maple syrup, fruits or other sources of natural sugar. Doing so will actually make them harmful! For example, glazing your steak with honey before you cook it will cause a lot of harm, because you're ruining the honey by heating it, and you're combining protein with sugar (which is BAD). But the point is, *_eating_** fresh fruit is not **_harmful!_* Of course, you should make sure you're getting the best quality (as with any foods) - meaning pesticide-free and grown with natural fertilizers only and in nutrient rich soil with climate conditions ideal for the plant. If you tick all those boxes, eating fruit could never be a bad thing unless you're a diabetic. But you don't become a diabetic from eating fruit. That's accomplished from *refined* carbohydrates, which do include pasteurized fruit products. So, to repeat myself: *NEVER buy or consume **_pasteurized_** fruit products!* And preferably, don't cook with fruit or sugar, natural or otherwise.

I follow the Ayervedic idea of eating every 8 hours to allow my body to completely digest all food and have a few hours rest before beginning the cycle again. That helps a lot to prevent fat buildup. But I find that eating berries as a primary source for fruits is the best way to get the benefits, but I also eat things like mango and pineapple as they are excellent cancer fighters, much better than oranges or other citrus fruits. The extra sugar in fruits is only a problem if you eat a lot of sugar in other foods as well. If you get most of your sugar from fruit and don't eat junk food or candy, then it should not be a problem.

Thats the bible says you feast when the sun is up, and you fast when the sun is down. Cause theres a time your body needs to eat and then a time for it to digest and rest. I fit all my macros in 2 meals a day within a 6-8hr eating window. Then i fast afterwards. Im now in the best shape of my life and the strongest ive ever been.

Berries are fine and low on the glycemic index. It also depends on the person because fruit can be inflammatory for some people like me. I can't eat much without sparking a sugar frenzy. Even natural sugar can trigger inflammation if eaten at the same sugar levels that were lost before going low carb and refined sugar free. You have to look at what he says in context. He talks about in one of his videos being addicted to ice cream and Doritos which sounds a lot like what I experience even if I eat grapes but know this is probably from his personal experience but it can be the experiences of others. Eat in moderation if you can. But if you can't like me because it starts you on an addiction you need to avoid any fruit high on the glycemic index and load and just pay careful attention to your eating habits and body after you eat a particular fruit and when you eat a bit more of it.

Eating food with fake glutamine flavor does the same, spikes uric acid causes sugar convention to fructose, hunger. Wheel moved again. The same high dose of regular sugar esp liquid as soft drink. The same high salt intake... The same lots of meat with the same umami flavor/glutamin. Dehydration also... Lots of factors to keep in mind. But all comes back to one the same cycle. Zero sugar, less salt, more hydration (sugar dehydrates), more walking or exercising. That's why Japanese walk, drink zero sugar green tea, eat variety in very small portions plus fermented food with vitamins & probiotics, never eat full, lots of seafood too. Not sure about fruits.

Fruits have one purpose that is fattening planteaters up for the winter. We are equipped with a ‘sweet tooth’ to ensure we do just that. Plant and plant eaters live in a sort of symbiose, they need seed spreading, we need fat for the winter. Fructose in large quantities forces the liver to convert it to fat but fructose is toxic in the long run and nature knows that do its only available a few weeks each year. The problem is we eat it each day year after year and that is the root cause of nearly all illnesses we have.

Avocados contain vitamins in addition to C such as E, K, and B6, as well as riboflavin, niacin, folate, pantothenic acid, magnesium, and potassium. The fiber in fruit slows the uptake of natural sugar which present in low amounts and mixed with other natural and not free sugars readily digestable in the body . We eat them just under ripe to retain the enzymes which aid in digestion. What about the polphenols and cartenoids in fruit which protect from us from disease and oxidative damage.. Fruits such as Watermelon reduce inflammation in the body. Why is the title attempting to be so divisive. I trust you to be informative not triggering.

Try eating 5 apples instead of juicing, there is a big difference in benefits.

Completely agree!! This guy is an expert in fear mongering to push his Keto and IF agenda. He starts with "can I eat fruit" and explains the dangers of "living on fruit" which is at the opposite extreme end of the spectrum. He does this for everything he doesn't approve of.

I wish there wasn't so much GMO fruit because years ago, watermelon with seeds tasted much better, cantelope and other melons were juicy and had a much better taste. Eating GMO fruit is like eating fake food. I remember as a kid eating watermelon on our porch and spitting out the seeds, it was like a game for us, it was fun and yummy.

I’m sure you’re aware as Dr Berg that the human body is optimised for glycogen as a fuel source. Yes we need protein and fat, however no one eats fruit for the protein or fat content. Literally the best reason for consuming fruit is the antioxidants, vitamins and fibre content, and including them as part of a balanced diet.

@braddalton1951 Жыл бұрын

Agree and once you're within the healthy weight range, fruit is good for you.

@TheboxersNutritionist Жыл бұрын

completely agree... this man obvs has a lot of knowledge around nutrition as do i myself but the problem is this ketogenic diet where you eat minimal carbs 20-50g per day is so unrealistic and unsustainable for most people. Especially for people who are training very hard and want to build muscle etc. Carbs are good it's about picking the right ones - simple sugar on its own is not good but if you have sugar from fruit you are getting antioxidants which are extremely important for good health as well as phytonutrients. The key is to build good habits and maintain a healthy balanced diet which you can stick to in the long term . Anyone can then get into shape due to maintaining a good diet.

Our body can produces its own glycogen without eating cards. We have essential fats and protiens, but no essential carbs. It is called gluconeogenesis. It occurs during starvation, as well as after meals high in fat and protien without carbohydrates.

Fruit should only be eaten on an empty stomach and NEVER combined with any other food. Fruit eaten correctly passes through the stomach quickly into the small intestines where it is digested (it's not digested in the stomach). Mixed with any other food in the stomach, it ferments ... causing bloating, stomach aches etc.

@kingofwesteros9868 2 жыл бұрын

I'll still eat fruit. There's nothing wrong with them, if nature made them edible. But we should focus mainly on local fruit, so in my country it would be: berries (strawberries, raspberries, blackberries black currant and so on), also apples, pears and cherries. Besides - if you eat, you raise insulin no matter what (protein raises blood sugar much more than fat), so eating fruit after meal does no difference. And they contain many vital nutrients. For me the key is to eat 2 meals a day and minimum 12 hours of break between last meal and first meal the next day. I feel better than ever before. But I eat fruit, together with meals.

@SpamMouse 2 жыл бұрын

Sadly you are working on a false hypostasis "they contain many vital nutrients" the facts trotted out today is based on tests ~100years old carried out on fruit that was not created in industrial production facilities sprayed with chemicals and selected based on sugar content to ensure repeat customer purchase not optimum health. Find an old person and ask them if fruit 50 years ago had a better taste than sweet fruits today? Modern high sugar fruits give a insulin spike as opposed to old-fruit which gave a lower spike.

Eating lots of fruits is the only thing that helped my insulin levels to be around 5.3 (per my last blood work). Apparently, some people do well on fruits whiles others don’t. I easily gain weight on starches but not fruits. After doing some research I found out that some people can do very well on starches depending their AMY1 gene while others can’t. I wish more nutritionists would talk more about biochemical individuality rather than recommend a one size fits all diet.

I eat berries (raspberries, blueberries, sometimes strawberries), but I cut out the majority of fruit-eating years ago. Never felt better!

The bulk of vegetables I eat is basically various salad greens.
