Today's episode is all about fruit fear and debunking beliefs around fruit having too much sugar, making us gain weight, etc. when in fact fruit is the most healing food we can be consuming. I also cover the top reasons why fruit could be causing you issues and how to test them plus lots of studies to negate the idea that people with Diabetes Type 2 shouldn't be having fruit.
