Fruits like apples,pears, oranges,

and others are not flattening but

heaps of natural sugar content,

which like all things - is good in

small amounts. The problem arises

if you eat 20 pieces of fruit.

The recommended serving is 1 -3

pieces per day. Other items to be

slowed down on are juices and jams

which are also high in fructose

content. According to Dr Dhiraj

palena, general physician and

nutrition consultant. " Fruit

juices contain as much, if not

more, carbohydrates and energy

than sweetened cold drinks.

It is when one adds table sugar

to fruits in salads or juices

that increases the level of sugar

in the dish, causing flattening

problems.Eating the skin of the

fruit which has important nutrients

can help negate sugar content.

Fructose(fruit sugar) is less harmful

than sucrose(table sugar).Fruit sugar

is better than table sugar. By eating

sucrose our bodies go out of sync with

the sugar processed in the body

extremely fast. Fructose is broken

down more slowly which allows the

body more time to react.
