Why? Fruits are just sweets with fibre and nutrients. Vegetables have everything you need.
- skrebbel 8y agoBecause GP wanted to eat food without added sugars and complained that he could only snack carrots and hummus. Apples, last I checked, have no added sugar. Also,your mileage may vary but I'm not sure that fruits should be very high on the list of food to avoid when you're trying to eat healthier. Ketogenic diet, sure, but that's not what this subthread is about. Fruits are good for you. Skip the hotdog instead.
- JoshMnem 8y agoThe fiber and nutrients make a difference. Fruit is healthy if you don't overdo it. (Not all fruits are sweet either -- like avocados, tomatoes, zucchini, and cucumbers.)
- loco5niner 8y agoWhy would you want to avoid fruit? Fruit is GOOD for you. The more variety in fruits AND vegetables the better.
- cup-of-tea 8y agoI'm not saying avoid fruit. If you like it then eat it in moderation. Remember plants make fruit because they want you to eat it. But you can do just fine with vegetables (in the culinary sense, so including tomatoes etc).
- krageon 8y agoIt is much easier to eat a balanced diet if it includes fruit. Many things are not impossible to do without, but some things do make everything else easier.
