Question Too much fruit?

Is it possible to eat too much fruit? Also, is it possible for the naturaly sugars in fruit to cause diabetes if you eat too much?

THank you for your response.Gosh. I didn't know that. Lately I have been eating way more than that. I have just had a taste for them. So, do you think that possibly too many fruits could be a reason that I haven't slept well lately? It is like I just can't get tired. I have been on the fruit kick for several weeks now. Too much of a good thing maybe????

We had a post about this same issue about a month ago here. You might want to check it out. There were a variety of interesting stories about this. This is subject to a variety of opinions.

How much is too much? You should do some research about this from many sources, and then make a decision on how much fruit daily you would like to consume. Personally, I think four or five pieces of fruit daily is OK, but that's my opinion - and that is what works well with me.

For my diet, I just stay away from junk foods. In doing so, this allows me to eat natural (non-processed) foods. I don't count calories, fat grams, carbohydrates, or the number of fruits, etc. Some days I could have eight pieces of fruit. Another day, I might only have one or two. It depends.... With a balanced diet with these natural foods, and exercise, it has kept me very healthy - my weight is always under control too.
