The Health Benefits of a Fruit Diet

By Jack Rowntree

More people are discovering the benefits of going on to a fruit diet. A lot go on either a short term or long term plan as part of a cleansing or detox program. Some people can find the experience unpleasant but there are ways to make it a lot easier and more enjoyable.

I have found some people to go straight out and start consuming lots of fruit all at once. The unfortunate result of this is that it can often make you feel bloated and nauseous initially.

The best way to approach this is to copy what grazing animals do and just eat small amounts of it frequently during the day. Small amounts regularly will prevent insulin surges which can make you feel more hungry. It will also prevent large amounts of fruit sitting in the stomach which can ferment and make you feel gassy and bloated.

Another superb way to get your fruit into the body is by juicing. This enables you to get your daily quota in a nice refreshing nutritious cool drink. Quickly you will find that your digestive system begins to become more efficient and function much better and many people report an increasing feeling of energy as a result. This is due to the fact that fruit is very easy to digest and so doesn't require much energy. This is often the cause of that tired sluggish feeling you experience after consuming a heavy meal full of protein and carbohydrates.

The types and quality of fruit you consume are also vital. Organic fruit has been grown without chemicals and pesticides in a good quality soil. The result being that you avoid ingesting these chemicals and reap all the benefits of the nutrients that originate from the earth.

It has been demonstrated that organic fruit and vegetables have increased levels of vitamins and minerals as compared to their inorganic counterparts. Although organic fruit and vegetables are usually more expensive than their inorganic alternatives you don not have to eat as much to get the same amount of nutritional benefits.

If you do decide to go down the route of a fruit diet then getting a variety of fruit is worthwhile. You will not only be less inclined to become bored of the diet, you will also be getting a wide variety of nutrients into your system. - 17269
