FRUIT SUGAR BEING BAD FOR YOU IS A MYTH!!!! The sugar contained in fruit is called fructose. Many people have come to believe that fructose is bad for you and will promote fat gain. This is simply not true. Fructose metabolizes differently than other types of sugar but it is still a great choice for carbohydrates. Fructose will restore liver glycogen levels quickly and muscle glycogen stores slowly. Although fructose is technically a sugar it does not cause a spike in blood sugar like many other sugars. This makes fruit and excellent choice for daily consumption.

You have never heard someone say, “I used to be in great shape but then I started to eat fruit and I got fat!”. You will never hear anyone say this because fruit provides natural sugar that will not interfere with fat loss.
