Jackson, MS, June 13, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- We all know that regular fruit consumption is good for us, but can we say the same about the highly-restrictive fruitarian diet? For those who may not know, the fruitarian diet requires that 75 percent of ones daily intake comes from raw fruit. The term, fruitarian describes an individual who adheres to this style of dieting as a way of life as a holistic approach to eating and health in general. Many well-known public figures have adopted the diet as a cleanse or to lose weight, but as healthy as fruit tends to be, Diet Doc warns that maintaining such a restrictive-diet for more than a few days can have many unintended consequences.

Fruit is high in natural and complex sugars that are often a great alternative to the processed sugar found in many foods in the grocery aisle. However, too much of these complex sugars can still put one at a greater risk for insulin-related conditions like diabetes, weight gain, kidney disorders and even tooth decay. In addition, a diet containing 75 percent fruit leaves very little room for proper nutritional balance. Fruitarians frequently report diminished levels of B vitamins, omega-3s, fatty acids, protein, iron and calcium. A diet lacking in these important nutrients can throw off the immune system and lead to bone loss, muscle loss, anemia and general malaise. If your goal is weight loss, very low-calorie diets such as this one can actually become a hindrance by slowing down the metabolism in order to conserve energy. Not to mention how miserable cravings can be for more satiating and filling foods.
