fruit

don,t know if this is a stupid question..is eating to much fruit bad for you ?

[Hermit]

Well I couldn't say exactly what it would do to you digestively but too much of anything is bad especially if its at the expense of other items which could make you go short of say, protein. Certainly too much fruit won't do your teeth too much good because of all the sugar and you might need to increase your toilet roll stocks if you get what I mean.

Probably have to spend a lot of time in the bathroom!!

How much is too much? If in addition to other foodstuffs, then veggies seem to be O.K. on it. A well rounded diet with extra helpings of your favourite fruit is fine.

btw A New Yorker died a few yrs back cos he only ate carrots!! And someone died a while back from drinking only tomato juice!!

I love fruit - and eat plenty every - day along with everything else I enjoy!! ;-)

if you are diabetic or dieting it can be harmful because of the sugar and carbohydrates content in fruits.

Citrus fruits can attack the enamel on your teeth - as can apples, oddly enough.

my dietician told me not to eat too much at the same time, to eat it 30mins before a meal and not to replace meals with it.
