I saw a super fascinating video by a former fully raw vegan, who ate lots of fruit for years, but eventually had to stop because her triglycerides were elevated. My own personal (nonmedical) opinion is that it takes time for an imbalance to form from eating lots of fruit. At first, I think it acts like a detox and the body is able to adjust. Over time, however, it becomes too much. Here’s the link: https://youtu.be/hyfCV1m-Qak She talks about her triglycerides and how they were caused by too much fructose at around minute 6.

Algal oil!

Also I find it hard to believe that traditional cultures who purposefully fermented the livers of their fish in order to get oils year round were endangering their bodies and “doing more harm than good.”

I actually covered that here: https://wellnessmama.com/335469/ketogenic-diet/

I am an RN finishing family nurse practitioner school up. I give lots of dietary advice etc to patients wanting to lose weight and improve their quality of life. My question is in response to something you stated on the podcast about fruit causing inflammation? I was wondering where the research backing that comes from, I haven’t been able to find any EBR against fruit consumption, and on PubMed all I find is evidence for high fruit consumption in reversing diabetes, lowering cholesterol, losing weight, and concludes fruit promotes anti inflammatory. I personally eat a diet of pretty much only fruit and veggies for the past 7 years and I started doing that based on Freelee the banana girls diet. My blood sugar is never raised after a 10 banana smoothie, my anemia is gone, in a nutshell I feel great and have very little fat on my body and eat about 2000 cals a day of fruit. I am very open to learning any info you may have on the negative effects of fruit, I honestly can’t fathom switching from my current diet to like a Keto diet. Thanks for your time!
