I read that all our body needs are Meat/beans, Vegetables, Fat, and water and the rest is optional. Does this mean we should look at fruit as a planned joy eat?
Answer:
I like this question because it illustrates that there are so many different ways we can get healthy. I like the science that shows that our bodies need healthy high fibre fruits and vegetables. Finding a science person you can trust is really important. Fact checking is key.
to answer your question I would consider that high fibre fruit are: Apples, bananas, oranges, strawberries all have around 3 to 4 grams of fiber, raspberries win the fiber race at 8 grams per cup,mangoes, persimmons, and guavas are also good sources of fiber: A mango has 5 grams, a persimmon has 6, and 1 cup of guava has about 9.
