Is the sugar in fruits bad? (srs)

[user778473]

I've noticed that most bodybuilders barely/don't even have fruits in their diet. The sugar in some fruits is more than some sweets.

Ive been researching the answer to this all day. Some are for and others against

What is the clear cut answer???

also is it okay for a diabetic to be eating fruits

Carbs, Sugars, High Fructose Corn Syrup, etc...

they're all the same fukking thing once they're in your body. There's no difference, as far as your body is concerned, between whole wheat pasta and a coke, provided you eat equal calories of each.

Figure it out from there.

Some bodybuilders eat fruit but I think on a cut they are avoided for obvious reasons.

But yea you should ask in the nutrition section.

[snizzle77]

i'm assuming most don't have them in their diets because they're still simple carbs

there's a huge difference between eating 120g of simple carbs vs 120g of complex carbs

the biggest benefit of having complex carbs is the amount of vitamins/minerals/fiber

"Some people have claimed that high-fructose corn syrup is no different than other sweeteners when it comes to weight gain and obesity, but our results make it clear that this just isn't true, at least under the conditions of our tests,"

wow @ the responses.

Eat fruit. In a cut or in a bulk. It has nutritional value regardless. A lot of people don't eat fruit because they do not know what in the hell they are doing in regards of a healthy diet.

And to answer your question: No, the sugar is fruits are not bad.

Yes, that's 100% accurate.

I, in fact, eat doughnuts post workout. I've gained over 40lbs of lean mass in 2yrs and lost over 20% bodyfat in that time.

I'm living proof.

When you get to my size and look like I do, I will believe you. Until then, pls go.

I have a lot of experience in this lol, ive tested it myself and read up on tons of responses from people.

The biggest factor in its effect on bodyfat cutting is your individual response to it, clear cut answer is its different for everyone, i myself CANNOT cut any significant amount of bodyfat eating a mediocre amount of sugar of any kind (including fruits). Would 1 fruit a day ruin my cut? prob not, would 3-4? absolutely.

Just see what works for you because tons of people dont have problems with it.

Well the body recognises it as energy (glucose) pretty much but there is a difference between wheat pasta (complex carb) and coke (simple), the difference is in how the body uses it. Complex carbs burn slower, simples burn faster.

The body can only use a certain amount of glucose at once. So if you have the simple carb and you are not using it quickly, it will be stored as fat QUICKER than the complex carb which is burned slower.

Otherwise if you are needing that insulin spike (with hiit, or something) then not a single fck was given that day. Eat what you want.

never concerned myself with diet until 1 month ago. Now I just eat less of the same burgers and shakes.

U mad?

[SpiderSense]

Yes the sugar in fruits is bad.

It's not as bad as straight up sucrose, but it isn't good either.

Fruit is kind of offset in terms of how bad it is by having fiber and a bunch of vitamins.

Where as sugar that you get in food products generally has no fiber or vitamins.

[Alternative]

Lmao at anyone who associates "sugar" with being unhealthy.

There's a big difference in a processed candy bar and fruit. The fruit has antioxidant properties and other healthy stuff that science has yet to even figure out. No person on any diet should be avoiding fruit.

There's a reason evolution created fruits... it is of great nutritional value and primates have lived off of strictly fruit diets for thousands of years.

[H0rsech0ker]

I generally stay away from fruits (there are exceptions), and this is why.

Fructose is more lipogenic (fat forming) than any other sugar or starch. It also causes greater elevations in blood fats (triglycerides and cholesterol) than other carbohydrates. Additionally fructose might also alter appetite, increasing hunger and cravings for sweet foods. According to research, fructose decreases levels of leptin, a hormone that normally suppresses hunger. At the same time, it raises levels of ghrelin, a hormone that stimulates hunger.

It's advised to eat low GI fruits. Blueberries pack a ton of antioxidants, so do raisins and they are low GI. Now a banana or orange in the morning, during, or post workout. That's not a bad idea.

the second part of this statement, if true, is only bad if you're an endo and always trying to cut fat. for people like me its a good thing, im lean as fuk cuzz. i eat mad fruit.
