The Truth About Fruit and Fruit Sugars

There is a significant difference between Complex Carbohydrates and Simple Carbohydrates. Every single cell in our body is fueled by simple carbohydrates (fructose and glucose). The body will always break down the complex carbohydrate into a simple carbohydrate.
This process is energy intensive.

Whole grains have been recommended as our dietary staple over fruits due to unfounded fears that the sugars in quantities of fruit will enter the bloodstream too quickly, upset the normal blood sugar levels, and result in the dangerous over-production of triglycerides.
 Modern society has bought this flawed myth hook line and sinker, at great expense to human health.

Fruit was therefore rejected by Nathan Pritikin (1915 – 1985), an American nutritionist and longevity research pioneer. Pritikin in seeking to eradicate heart disease replaced animal foods with whole grains as a principle source of nourishment.

In doing so he mistakenly grouped the natural sugars contained in fruit in with other sugars. This is a mistake that has had far reaching consequence to our collective health as civilized society.
Going one step further, most “experts” categorize fruit sugars with processed cane sugars used across the western world in all forms of “food” and sweets.
This is a classic case of throwing the baby out with the bath water.

In addition to being rich with naturally structured water, fruit carbohydrates also supply us with much more abundant vitamins and minerals than any starches. A particularly important vitamin we must get from food sources, vitamin C, is most plentiful in fruits. All of the nutrients  that whole grains are touted for are better supplied by fruits and vegetables.
There is no nutrient needed to support perfect health in humans that cannot be amply supplied by fruits, vegetables nut and seeds in their whole, raw, unprocessed form.

Calorie for calorie, fruits contain between 10 – 100 times as much calcium and other alkaline minerals as do those pesky grains. Our body’s only true fuel is carbohydrates in the form of simple sugar, glucose, of which fruit is by far the most efficient source. Any other fuel sources such as complex carbs, grains, starches, fat, or proteins, require far more effort to digest and utilize.
Fruit sugars (eaten away from fats) will go directly to nourish all the cells in your body with their PRIMARY source of fuel, simple sugars, and will cause a gentle, natural and immediate rise and fall in  blood sugar, with no sudden spikes or dips.

It is difficult to overeat on fruit because the brain monitors  blood sugar levels, and sends a message to decrease appetite when the blood sugar rises. This is not done when consuming complex carb type food such as bread, pasta etc, which leads to over eating.

This is part of the key to understanding the obesity that sweeps the modern world.
 Toxins loaded into our food source thanks to a flood of chemicals is the other elusively obvious key.
