Is Fruit (and the Sugar in it) Bad for You? Longevity, Inflammation, Insulin, CVD, & How Much Fruit to Eat

November 5, 2023November 5, 2023 Miche

I go over scientific studies on how fruit and fruit juice intake affect your health, particularly in terms of inflammation, insulin resistance and diabetes risk, cardiovascular risk markers, and overall mortality.

Key study links:
- A note on funding: this was one of those VERY frustrating topics to research because it’s a minefield out there. (I really don’t like industry funded studies.) The conclusions I talk about in the video are supported by non-funded studies. I cite a few reviews that were funded by industry (note the authors didn’t actually collect any data, just summarized the data from other studies out there) because they’re recent, comprehensive and/or have clearer abstracts, so they’ll be more useful for any of you who want to look at the papers. But for every funded study I cite, I first made sure it was well supported by non-funded studies.
