Re: Does this mean "no more fruit?"
Tanya,
Thank you so much for you input. Avoiding fruit just goes against everything I thought I knew about nutrition. However, I know that fructose is the form of sugar found in all fruits, and this article and some others seem adamant about avoiding it. We have a garden and my husband grows veggies year round. Normally, at least 90% of the food we eat is in its natural state. I have even quit cooking casseroles because of the added sauces, canned soups, crackers, etc. I prepare foods very plainly just adding olive oil to some veggies. Thank you again for straightening me out!
Sandra
