WHEN DID FRUITS BECOME BAD FOR YOU???

Fruit is still full of great natural sugars and vitamins and in essence - is still healthy.
But it is not so good for those looking to lose weight when eaten in large quantities.
The sugar in fruit is natural fructose, but it’s still too much for the body to lose weight (it all relates to the release of too much insulin).

If you are trying to lose weight, eating no more than 1-2 pieces of fruit a day (plus loads of green vegetables).

Which Fruits Are Best For Weight Loss?

The answer is Low G.I. fruit (also known as – low carb fruit).

G.I. means glycemic index, which basically indicates how much sugar is in the food.

Every food/fruit has a score on the glycemic index.

Best Low Carb Fruits (LOW GI)

Berries (blueberries, raspberries)
Cherries
Plums
Grapefruit
Apple
Prunes
Dried apricots
Oranges
Worst High Carb Fruits (HIGH GI)
Banana
Grapes
