149: What’s in Dr. Gundry’s fruit bowl?

by | Apr 12, 2021 | 2 comments

You know, ever since I told my readers to “give fruit the boot” in my first book, people have labeled me as some kind of “fruit hater.”

Well, my wife Penny can tell you, I am anything BUT a fruit hater.

In fact, there are a LOT of fruits I absolutely love and recommend. 

So in this “mini episode,” I share a few of my favorite fruits (and WHY I love them so much), easy tips for eating fruit in moderation, and what it really means to eat your fruit “in season” (it’s a little more complicated than you think!). 

In this episode you’ll learn:

  • The REAL purpose of fruit in your diet (this may surprise you) – and why too much fruit can destroy your health, energy and waistline (1:00)
  • Why you’re likely consuming way more fruit than you think – and how to make sure you’re not overdoing it (3:30)
  • What it REALLY means to eat your fruit “in season” – and my 3 shopping tips for finding “safe-to-eat” fruits (4:00)
  • Why “America’s favorite fruit” is actually OFF LIMITS (no matter the season) (5:15)
  • My top 10 FAVORITE fruits – and why they beat out all other fruits when it comes to health benefits (6:30)
  • Why you NEED to stop freezing your fruit (yes, even if they were technically “in season” when you froze them) (9:15) 
  • Why bread that has been “long-fermented” is still DANGEROUS for your health – and some exciting news for bread-lovers (10:15)
