A Fruitarian Diet is a diet which consists mostly of fruits. We are a vegan community. We do not condone "detoxes", "fasting" or starvation. Ones diet does not need to be 100% fruit, or even 100% raw. Eating enough calories is of utmost importance (2000+/day for females and 2500+/day for males, minimum).

Non-fruity foods to lean on?

Hey community! I’ve been struggling a bit as the weather is getting colder and wetter, and fruit supply is diminishing. I’m down to apples, bananas, and dates as the only reliable fruit right now.

Really craving some cooked foods, but my digestion does not tolerate most things well. I had a small sweet potato last night, and it’s still sitting in my stomach causing grief.

Thinking about trying some grains, or possibly some beans. Would love to find something to eat with a huge salad to help with some cravings, and not making me feel heavy, bloated, and full of regret.

What do you all lean on when times are tough?

Gratitude

Why no salt?

In so many fruitarian posts and discussions I see admonitions against salt. This seems strange to me because we could live without fruit, but not without sodium. No sodium as the electrolyte gatekeeper, no sodium potassium pump. So what's the deal? Why no salt?

Thanks 🙂

How do I get started?

I eat clean and am an athlete. Would like to go fruitarian. Just worried about not getting enough protein, fat, nutrients. Looking for a guru to guide me. Where do I get started? What are the first steps?

Might try this

Has anyone here survived long term eating nothing but fruit? It is logical that fruit should be eaten but I question whether protein and fat is essential

Underweight

I know lots of you had the opposite problem before switching to fruitarian but here I am underweight since forever. I am doing a transition diet right now so I’m still not full fruitarian (I’ve cut out all grains but still having cooked veggies and fish every day, I know it really sucks but social pressure is insane) and my body weight has already gone down more. Again, social pressure is insane, it’s like I am the stupid one out of everyone, while they fill themselves with sugar, corpses and other trash. What can I do? I am already going heavy on hypercaloric fat foods like nuts, oils, avocados and coconut but it seems not to be working. Should I go REALLY heavy on these? Another obstacle are my gut issues so exaggerating on fiber and fats will only make it worse. It’s so hard.

Tried to eat some Pico de Gallo and my body said no

My belly is very "full", it's a very uncomfortable type of full, I ate 3 very juicy mandarins and 2 bananas, felt content and then proceeded to eat some spoonfuls of (delicious) Pico de Gallo

The only time I've ever felt this way was when I was about to projectile vomit into the toilet bowl after eating about 3kg of garbage food last year (crackers, roti, flour, vegan butter/oil and a stupendous amount of chili).
It's going away much faster now but it's definitely teaching me a lesson, probably the most forward and intuitive lesson I've ever had lol.

Anyone else have a similar experience?

Mizuki Nakano the fruitarian

This Japanese Fruitarian researcher, Mizuki Nakano has some big media appearances none of them smarmy though (I think his credentials give credence being that he graduated from Kyoto Uni for Agricultural studies and was a former professor at Tokyo Uni).
He's stated that "there is no scientific research data on eating too much fruit" though he supports transitioning into a fruitarian diet . I just thought it was interesting to see a fruitarian research not be labelled as crazy and have some media appearance. He's also never had to drink water by itself.

Most recent interview (Auto translate captions are available)

Another one (more in depth on his day to day)

Going to start a 30 day fruit only challenge. Wish me luck.

I have been eating more and more fruit in my diet gradually for the past 2 years especially the past year. I am not vegan or 100% raw by any means but I would do maybe a day or two on fruit and then a regular mixed meal at night and stuff along those lines. Anyways today I just had mcdonals lol and now I feel pretty inspired to do a straight one month fruit only challenge. The longest I have gone only fruit is like 7-8 days but I am going to do a month this time. I feel so inspired ahhhhh.

Dips in energy

Hello all! I'm trying to eat a more fruit-based diet, but one of my issues with high sugar diets is that I tend to experience a lot of energy initially and then a great dip in energy 2-3 hours after my meal, where I'm just ready to fall asleep. Since I work, I can't take naps. Do any of you experience that and how do you deal with it?

Expectations

Hey guys new to the group! I am thinking about going on a fruit fast for the month of October. Wanted to inquire on the positive and negatives of eating fruit only!? Any suggestions or certain protocols? I’m currently trying to fruit fast mainly for health issues, I’ve done some research and I see eating fruits only might assist with my issues. My main health issues is I’m over weight( according to my USA BMI, sciatic nerve pain, back pain, and I’ve recently had some erectile dysfunction. I have also been smoking for the past 7 years. So I you can see a lot of issues in hoping going on a fast and stopping eating the bad food I have eaten and stop smoking. Thank you for your help!

Conflicted between fruitarian and WFPB

I am a WFPB eater and HCLF.

I've been full fruitarian before but I'm starting to question if this is really for me.

I always finding that after a full day of eating this way that I am missing out on things like beans, potatoes, and other stuff

BUT I also understand why fruitarian is good, the digestion is great and feels better than starch from beans, the hydration is good, but it's not all good bc alot of food like cherries and watermelon don't digest well at all, it's a FODMAP issue for sure but for whatever reason beans go down better than those two, and fruit everyday has honestly cost me a lot, bananas I'm allergic to so I can't do those and beans are $1 a can.

Mixing these two together has been difficult bc it's rather a big bowl of fruit or rice/beans for lunch and I approach my day differently which each

Sorry for the rambling but what are your thoughts?

Is it possible to freeze fruit and eat it after a month/weeks? more in the comments

Hey guys, first time posting here. I’m originally from Southern Italy, where it’s easy to find fresh fruit and eat it right away. However, I recently moved to a city in the North, and finding good quality, fresh fruit has been a huge challenge. First of all, it’s extremely expensive and doesn’t taste as good. My friend suggested I buy a lot of fruit from my hometown, bring it up North, and freeze it. I can go home about once a month, so I’d be buying tons of fruit and freezing it for around a month. My dad’s worried it won’t taste as good, but I don’t think he’s right. What do you guys think? Is this the best way to go?
