Have you heard that you need to Avoid certain fruits, vegetables, and other plants because of their high content of sugar?

Many people claim that fruit leads to weight gain and health complications, despite there being no evidence whatsoever to support this. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. Consuming plants – specifically fruit – is consistently associated with lower rates of diseases like diabetes and obesity.
