You've been told that eating lots of fruit is healthy, but many fruits are high in sugar and will slow down or stop weight loss. Have you been obediently drinking fruit smoothies and not losing weight?

Fruit does have some vitamins and minerals, but these 13 fruits are too high in sugar to be healthy for daily consumption if you want to burn fat and get healthier.

I feel like you and my wife are in cahoots to ruin my life. Given a choice of only being able to eat one type of food for the rest of my life I would pick fruit every time. She has me mostly carnivore now to fix my blood pressure and weight. This video was the final nail in the coffin of my happiness of ever eating large amounts of fruit again. All kidding aside, you guys have helped save my life. Thanks

Fruits are one the sneakiest foods out there. I ate 5 -6 servings on a daily basis all my life. Started a low-carb diet over 2 years ago and funny enough I didn't suffer from scurvy. On the contrary, every aspect of my health got better. So a few months ago I decided to add fruits again on a daily basis, not donuts just fruits within 2 - 3months Many of the symptoms I had before low carb started to come back i.e. weight gain, swollen bleeding gums, heartburn. etc. Went off the fruits and the symptoms disappeared again Dr. Berry is 100% correct on this one. Life experience is much more compelling than something written in a medical journal.

That moment when you realise you’ve been lied to since you were a kid.

WOW! Thank You! Since my father's recent passing of diabetes I've been working at focusing on making sure I have my health together. The reality for myself is that I'm allergic to so much that I have to pay attention to what I'm eating. You have been great help for me, and those that I mention this to. 👍🏼❤️

Just came off a 48hr fast, next meal in 23 hrs. I use these videos to strengthen my conviction and hope to keep going at it.
@othmansultan1529 3 years ago

I also wanted to inform all the people in the group. I did lose 23lbs on being on keto listening to your videos but I took in fruits along with keto diet and I lost that weight and that too in a nice way. I stopped all the junk food from the market, I gave away all the rice store and flour and pastas which I stored during covid but gave away to friends and family and now we do not have any carbs in our kitchen. Just cut the sugar from all the man made junk. Please do not juice or make smoothies but just eat raw fruit along with your keto and believe me you will be all good. Fruit is our primal food, we used to eat meat and some veggies and fruits and we were all healthy. Just remove the carbs.

Big fan of dr Berry, but I hate when his bias towards his hate of all carbs gets in the way of his quality advice. To compare a kiwi 🥝 to a jelly doughnut 🍩 is just so stupid, we all know it’s more complex than that, it’s nutrition so it’s never black and white. Go eat 3 jelly doughnuts one day and 3 kiwis the next day and see how you feel after each one.

Thank you so much for talking about correlation/causation! There is way to much confusion between the two and leads to people making some inaccurate conclusions. Great video, doc!

Hi DR Berry, I’m such a sceptic when it comes to diets. I’ve been sick with autoimmune disease for a couple years. I have every system you talk about. Scleritis , uveitis , in the eye is about to get the best of me. However I have started the carnivore diet and can’t believe the changes I’m see already. Thank you and keep doing the research and videos.

Doc, no wonder I never lost weight on smoothie diets. I never knew how much sugar I was consuming.
@ronniek6323 2 years ago

I watched one of your vids cautioning us about fruit sugar. So I’m limiting my fruit intake to about a handful of berries a day. Checked my my blood sugar # yesterday and it was down to 109. The lowest I could get was 119 but it always seemed to hover around in the 130s. And yes! I was eating 2 gigs a day. No more naners either. And an apple or orange when I’m on the road! And that’s it! Thank you Dr Berry!
