info_outlineDo you know why fruits are called nature’s convenience food or nature’s fast food, because they are ready to eat, nutritious and often come in their own natural packaging.
As someone who has explored various diets and interviewed numerous health experts, such as Orvel Douglas, Khepra Anu, Lashay Taylor and others, I believe the fruitarian lifestyle offers numerous benefits for your health.
First and foremost, fruits are packed with essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that are crucial for maintaining optimal health. They are rich in vitamins like C and A, which boost your immune system and improve skin health. Fruits are high in fiber, which aids in digestion and helps maintain a healthy weight. The natural sugars in fruits provide a steady source of energy without the crash associated with processed sugars.
The fruitarian diet is incredibly hydrating. Fruits have a high water content, which helps keep your body hydrated and supports overall bodily functions. This hydration is particularly beneficial for your skin, making it look more radiant and youthful. The antioxidants in fruits also play a significant role in reducing inflammation and protecting your body from chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers. Orvel Douglas is the creator of the Fruitarian Challenge, an event that happens every other month. I’ve witnessed the results of hundreds of participants who took part in his challenge lose weight, reverse heart disease, diabetes and so many other chronic illnesses just from participating in the fruit feast challenge. Orvel is quick to say that it is not the fruit that’s doing the healing, it’s your body that’s doing the healing. The fruit is creating the environment in which your body is able to heal itself. In other words, the body was meant to heal itself, you just have to give your body what it needs to do the job.
Another compelling reason to consider the fruitarian lifestyle is its simplicity and natural approach to eating. By focusing on whole, unprocessed foods, you eliminate the intake of harmful additives and preservatives commonly found in processed foods. This can lead to improved digestion, increased energy levels, and a clearer mind. Many people who adopt a fruitarian diet report feeling more connected to nature and experiencing a greater sense of well-being.
The fruitarian lifestyle offers many health benefits, from boosting your immune system and improving digestion to providing essential nutrients and promoting hydration. If you're looking to enhance your health and well-being, consider incorporating more fruits into your diet. Your body will thank you later.
