Are fruits OK on a diet?
Q: On a diet, is it bad to eat too much fruits?
A: It depends on what else you eat on daily basis. If you watch fats, fruits are probably completely OK. If you are trying to cut down on carbohydrate, the fruit carbs will definitely add to your daily quota. However, even on a low carb moderate diet such as the Zone Diet, fruits are allowed and on South Beach diet, they are encouraged.
On the Banta Diet that is very low in carbs, allowed are : blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and in later phases, any fruit. Fruit fasting days are suggested.
