Why is it bad to eat too much fruit?

 It depends what you consider "too much" fruit. For some people more than three a day is "too much", for me "too much fruit" would be five kilos in one sitting

Right now there is a false belief that, as they contain fructose and glucose, natural sugars and some such as figs, bananas, grapes, have them in large quantities, it is wrongly concluded that "fruits are bad" or even "fruits cause diabetes " which is totally unfounded There are no conclusive studies indicating that eating fruit causes diabetes.

Have you stopped eating fruit for fear of "going diabetic"? eat them without fear

If you are already diabetic you should calculate the amounts of daily fruit, for example no more than 17 grapes daily, or 2 small figs, or half a banana, it is better to eat apples or oranges but with everything and the mesocarp (the bagasse) , which is what dietary fiber contains, to avoid a spike in blood glucose. Many people make the mistake of thinking that "fruit is bad", so they go and drink a juice that is just sugar without fiber, because this is much worse.

If you don't have diabetes, you're active, you can eat as much fruit as you want, no limit (as long as you don't skip the other food groups: green leafy vegetables, whole grains, protein), see Harvard Plate .


The Harvard plate says that vegetables and fruits should be half of your plate

Back on topic , how much is too much fruit? That by eating fruit you stop eating the other food groups How much fruit should I eat a day? Harvard experts say: AS MUCH AS YOU CAN.
