Question

How many fruitarians are there in America? Can a diet of fruits sustain us? How do fruitarians survive?

Answer 1

There's one particular fruitarian I have seen that thrives on hate and misery. but for the rest, living on only fruit juice is not healthy. But for that one and only that one, I think it's best she continues until it does her in.

Answer 2

I agree with the guy at the top. its ok for a week, but not a for a sustained diet. You will not get the MINERALS you need. Sure, plenty of Vitamens, but what about protein? calcium? Sure if you wanna get rickets and disease, be my guest.

Answer 3

From what I've learned, a "fruitarian" diet can have great positive effects on your health in the short-term, but it is not a diet that will sustain you in the long-term.  It can give you a boost of vital nutrients, but is also lacking in many important nutrients in the right ratios.  Many people who went on a fruitarian diet and experienced the initial surge in health and energy eventually found themselves facing a failure to thrive and were forced to change their frutarian lifestyle.

Looking through a fruitarian website, I'm seeing a load of claims that have no scientific basis whatsoever, and are in fact easily refuted by real science.

Answer 4

I figured you out, you're a troll. Got the same avatar background as Christy, asking the same questions as Christy, and saying outrageous things lke ''you vegetarians are too weak to give up dairy'' in response to people's questions. Just like..CHRISTY! You're a fake. A meat eater posing as a vegan. I don't believe your posts are genuine at all. And I have good reason to believe that too.
