Is Fruit Poison to Your Body? | Educational Video | Biolayne 

I’m so glad for people like Lanyne who counter all this keto non sense. I went keto for a while and hated it. I love fruit so much.

“You can’t eat that much fruit” Freelee: Hold my bananas.

I used to eat 7 apples a day. For years in college, it was free from the dinning center and it helped me stay awake because I didn’t like coffee. I never saw a negative side affect for myself.

Great example of how A = B, B = C, so A = C mechanistic thinking doesn't always play out as expected! Quite the slippery slope fallacy to hypothesize outcomes from single mechanisms.

My grandfather used to eat huge amounts of oranges, tangerines, grape, melons... everyday. He was healthy. Died at the age of 82 peacefully in his sleep. In my tribe we see fruits as the healthiest food.

1. I do not seek nutritional knowledge from Instagram. 2. I do not seek nutritional knowledge from DDS's. I appreciate your effort to debunk, but any sensible person wouldn't take his advice under any circumstances, unless fad diets and woo from dentists who appear on TV are desirable.

One of the best health channels. Super interesting. Keep it up, bud!

Me eating 7-10 fruit & veg a day: 🪦

Me eating a pound of fruit a day: I guess I should be dead by now 🪦💀

Great content. I saw a post on IG that had a study that claimed fruit will fill your arteries with “goo” because of fructose. I know people who refuse giving their children fruit because of dangerous advice like this dentist.

Keep these videos coming 👍🏽👍🏽

Love your work! ❤❤❤

Ohhh another evidenced-based content creator...thank god. New sub. Just finished the other video on Keto vs High carb on A1C and I'm loving the messaging from the actual preponderance of data. It's shocking and honestly sad that people can be convinced that fruit...of all things...is somehow unhealthy. Equated to actual alcohol. It's a breath of fresh air to find some channels trying to bring back common sense.

So glad I found your channel, Layne. Great information, as always. If fruits were that bad for you, then many Frutarians would have over the top NAFL disease. But they don't!

Love it Layne, I’m in Panama enjoying all the local fruit on the buffet 🍉

How does he still not have at least 1 million subscribers? :/ Keep it up boss!

I eat fruit honestly just because I like fruit; that’s my bias I guess. I hate the taste of most veggies so rarely eat them. Yeah I know there’s probably cons to not eating veggies, but I do the best I can with the foods I actually enjoy eating. Also it keeps me from binging on high calorie desserts. Great video Layne!

It would be great if Layne would address the meta analysis done by the Cochran group that does show saturated fat in the diet increases heart disease.

I saw the post, so glad you reacted. I saw first hand in my job (anecdotally). All the people I worked with chronic disease, very low to no fruit consumption.

This will be good can’t wait to hear it

As someone who actually found out this year I have NAFLD. I can tell you I got it working an overnight security gig and eating fast food and other high saturated fat foods every night. Some frustose from soda but a lot of saturated fat. This was very helpful. Basically confirms what I've been targeting. Reducing saturated fat primarily and keeping high frustose corn syrup drinks to an occasional thing. Appreciate it Layne.

Great context.

Fructose not bad yeah,yeah okay... But can we talk how your beard matches your T-Shirt PERFECTLY in color

As always, Bio Layne delivers truthful information that’s science-based.

makes a lot of sense; awesome video thanks for the common sense and data and truth

I used to eat 10 bananas a day cuz they were free at work😅

WOW Layne u got a commercial, congrats brother!

keep em coming

My motto is "eat your fruit, don't drink it" that way you get all the fiber it provides and it's a source of energy nature has gifted us

It’s frustrating that more people don’t watch LN. I own a gym and ever week I’ll hear misinformation that the members believe (and I used to believe) about fruit/fructose, artificial sweeteners, fasting etc. I’ve changed who I listen to these days after being enlightened by Laynes videos. Podcasts I used to swear by - I now know the guests are quacks! I’ve literally wasted hours listening to the nonsense they talk on there!

Great video…I love fruit and it keeps me within my caloric goals way easier than heavily processed foods…and tastes delicious 🤤!

Hi Layne, could you talk about the data regarding IF, low carb or low meat and so on.. but for longevity instead of for fat loss ?

First it was fat, then carbs and sugar and now fructose. Marketing needs something to bulls**t about to make $$$. Eating whole foods is good just don't eat 100 pieces of it🤣

Nice one ! I been having fruit as a first meal for over 40 years and love it ! Haven’t had any hospital issues yet ?! Xxxm👍💋❤️🌈🍒

Hello man, great stuff on your videos, we all enjoy all the educational content you gave us without any bs. Would be great if you make a video explaining implications on short and fast reps. Vs slow moves on long reps, I mean about the actual movement on the rep. I have seen some videos of some famous bodybuilders, and they use a fast and short range of motion on their reps, and this is kind of confusing because it actually works for them (?) thanks

In this video I heard three things: - fruit is fine to consume - fasting is the great medicine for the overconsumption culture of modernity - Layne does cherry-pick studies sometimes, so it is important to listen carefully (if a claim is not followed by "In the meta-analysis...", it should be taken with a heap of salt)

You Rock great video

My son and is did an experiment where we depleted our caffeine stores by not consuming any for two weeks. After the two weeks each morning we ate one large apple instead of our usual coffee. Yes, we both felt a caffeine type response. Not as strong as the coffee and didn’t last as long but surly did work. The apples felt better than the coffee as we had less jitters and anxiousness feeling. Worth a try!

I will never limit my nectarines. You will pry my cold dead body from them. Its bad enough they're seasonal and only in during the summer. Summer is my favorite season because of these wonderful, divine creatures. All hail the magical nectarine! Nectarines are my favorite fruit, plant, hell just food, of all time. We never ate them as a kid but at 22 I discovered them and have eaten so many nectarines, they're the majority of my diet. Something about them makes me so happy.

It's funny because everyone thinks that they can give nutritional advice. It's non sense!!! Your content is amazing and even though it is all based in studies/evidence, it is really easy to understand.

Thank you . USA 🇺🇸

I wish I could see a discussion between Layne and Robert Lustig.

Another great video, So i am reading(listening) to Dr Robert Lustig's Metabolical: The Truth About Processed Food and How It Poisons People and the Planet. And he also speaks about how fructose is not good for you but this is about fructose in the form of added sugar not fructose from fruit as in without all the fiber and stuff. So he makes the same point, i think people are really confusing themselves, it is the same reason why fat got demonized at some point.

I eat masses of fruit and I love it... and I’m 15% body fat all year round.

I think when some people say that fructose is a "poison", what they mean is that the liver must break it down into something that the body can use, like glucose. Now this does not mean that limited amounts are bad, the liver is able to break down a certain amount of fructose a day having no problems, it would only be an excessive amount which causes problems. This excessive amount is hard to achieve by eating fruits, given the high amount of fiber in a fruit along with the fact that fruits have other sugars. It is probably practically impossible to achieve this excessive level of fructose if you just ate fruits, but might happen if you consumed drinks, desserts, and other foods that had high fructose corn syrup. There is also the theory of hormesis that small amounts of these "stressors" or "poisons" can have positive benefit, so this could be true of fructose. I wonder if there is a hormetic curve with fructose. I think the problem is how people are using the word "poison". Maybe the more appropriate word is "toxin". "The reason for these disastrous health problems is that high intake of fructose acts more like a toxin than a nutrient.9 Like a toxin, it is metabolized almost exclusively in the liver, where it is converted into dangerous byproducts (such as excess lipids and uric acid).10-16 And, like a toxin, fructose has direct harmful effects (glycation) on tissues throughout the body, while performing no necessary nutritional function.17,18" www.lifeextension.com/magazine/2013/10/are-you-suffering-from-fructose-poisoning The common theme seems to be "high intake", which is not from someone who eats a couple apples a day, but someone downing high fructose corn syrup drinks like water. From what I just read, the amount of fructose in an apple that weighs 100 grams is only 6 grams of fructose. So, I eat an apple a day, and I have a half of a banana and one strawberry in my protein shake, that is only 10 grams of fructose. As I said earlier, fructose could be a "toxin", but at that level, maybe it could be beneficial due to hormesis.

Thanks 👍

Your content is just refreshing and outstanding information, with an amazing sense of humor. 🙌

My main carb source is fruit and has been for many years. My blood work has been great for many years. I don’t eat less than 250g of carbs a day

Awesome

Wow the solution is always so easy, and not complicated like the diet industry wants us to believe. To much energy (Bad) slight deficit (Good)

Please, please a detailed Video on Gluten. Does it really cause leaky gut etc. and auto immune disorders?

Fruit is the best! Yummy in my tummy.

I just came here to say that the title and thumbnail, it gave me a really good laugh 🤣

One of the greatest changes I made to my diet this year, that has helped me remain compliant more than anything, is eating a big fruit salad for dessert most nights, you won't find me up hunting for snacks at 2am on a night that I do that, I guarantee it.

Thoughts on fruit post workout only replenishing liver glycogen and not muscle glycogen, and this being a negative?

Great video! Can you expand more on why you think we should limit saturated fat?

Last I heard, as with everything else, saturated fat intake is not a problem as long as energy balance is considered.

Please don't think I'm advocating the anti fruit school of thought, and I can't remember the source of the study but I remember some study suggesting that If one eats ONLY 100 % fructose ALONE, as the primary carb macro then liver problems MIGHT occur. As the ratio of adding only ten percent of glucose in a matching caloric amount of sugar makes this problem not occur, but still stops the spike in blood sugar, if one buys into insulin spiking as a problem, as I don't. Yes, I've learned a lot about nutrition from Layne, I eat a lot of vegetables and fruit in multiple variations and have lost 100 pounds in 13 months and have about fifteen to go for optimum body fat percentage and or optimum level of viceral fat. I don't believe added sugar is poison, but avoid it like the plague because fruit, vegetables and whole grains provide vitamins, minerals, fiber, and micronutrients, that cookies, cokes and candy are fully devoid of. What's with the pro saturated fat club? Take any morbid obese individual,( like me thirteen months ago) and put him or her on the healthiest diet, with excessive calories and they'll become less healthy. Conversely put them on a calorie deficit with an inferior diet and as they lose weight they'll get healthier.

Thanks Layne great job as always 👏👏🤙💪😎

That dentist should only worry about high acidic saliva levels from high fruit intake...

What about blending fruit into a smoothie? I've heard that blending whole fruits become free sugars because the blending rips the fiber and drinking fruit smoothies is the same as drinking soda

More fruit for the win!!

Please refer to Dr. Robert Lustig's many youtube videos which very eloquently describe fructose TOXICITY.

I ate an apple the other day. Died.

This is ridiculous, people are eating fast food and drinking 5-10 sodas a day. You hardly ever see videos or public warnings about fast food and soda yet we have seen an uptick in “doctors” attacking meat, fruit, and suspiciously any food that is natural.

I mean, if ever there were an episode where the lab coat would be ABSOLUTELY CRUCIAL for credibility, this was it. Sadly, this debunking was for all for naught, as nobody will believe any of Layne's information now. 😅

Please do a podcast

Thank you for clearing this up. I eat grapes and apples every day. If people haven’t realized yet, there aren’t many naturally occurring foods that are bad for you. 🤷🏻‍♂️

A thought that has been of the back of my head is that groups like "saturated fats" or "fructose" etc aren't really that bad, but the combination is what's deadly. Like if the result isn't the sum of its parts. This makes sense?

I’ve been scouring your videos to find this answer. I am waiting to find out what level of NAFLD I have.

Thoughts on What I’ve Learned’s claims on saturated fat being good and vegetable oils being toxic?

Link for your henley?

It is when it's injected with poison.

Hands down, the most level headed and informative content on diet

getting too much fructose from fruit is very hard. Only if you're gorging on ounces and ounces of raisins or whatever!!

Even Rob Lustig who thinks the fructose is the cause of all evil says that you can eat all of the fruit you want (except for grapes 😂)

the only reason I don't eat fruit often is because they cost twice compared to veggies.

I can't be the only one who was eating fruit watching this video

Is it already friday?? i thought tomorrow i would post my tbt

i would probably lean toward fruit JUICE as something that can fatten your liver, because theres no fiber. same with drinking soda, because of all the fructose. this explains why soda drinkers can have that hard beer belly

Fructose doesn't even get into the blood stream except for the portal vein

I eat 5-7 pieces of fruit on a good day. My digestion/gut is great.

Eat your fruit, don't drink it. Is my motto. I've read material on fructose from Rick Johnson. Do you consider that reliable source of information?

Lustig followers need to watch this video. His video blaming the obesity epidemic as well as diabetes, heart disease on fructose etc has 16 million views and that video is full of weak arguments.

Am I reading this wrong or the study you linked actually states that the overfeeding with fat is better than overfeeding with fructose? "...Conclusion: Fat and fructose both increased IHCL, but fructose increased, while fat decreased, VLDL triacylglycerols...".

Am I Snow White with the wicked Queen after me? I mean, did this person watch to many Disney movies growing up?

Fruit ain't bad and it should play the part of a healty diet. Fructose ain't bad either or necessarily worse then other sugars.

Agree that normal amounts of fruit aren't likely to be a problem. I eat about a cup of fruit every morning. On the other hand, there is a limit. The Romans induced fatty liver in geese by feeding them dates.

Good video showing how medical lies can be repeated by ignorant and lazy people (if not evil people for financial interests).

Can't even believe videos like this need to be made. Fruit is bad now? How about candy, soda, etc

So alkohol is not a popsongar.

6 sodas a day is pretty doable tbh. Perhaps very rare but doable since apperently there's a 20 year old girl that happen to consume more like 20 sodas a day.

I do not trust studies that use synthesized components of food. You should use food to study food. Unfortunately, many of us eat very little food. Mostly we eat processed food like substances with added chemicals and other food molecules. If we all just did what Grandma said and ate a variety of simple Whole Foods, we would all be better off. Also, chew your food, there is something to this.

Rashad Evans is officially a frutarian. What are the dangers of this, are there any races that handle this better/worse, and how long until he regrets this?

Is Hemlock a fruit?

Bro there's literally Fructose in it

Low hanging fruit?

Is it me or the audio is low?

I fell for this low carb stuff, too. I felt like trash

Great work. Keep doing this public service stuff. PLEASE! 👍
