ExclusiveWhat High Fructose Means for Your Body; Which Fruits to Embrace, Which to Avoid｜Vital Signs

Fruits and vegetables go together like “two peas in a pod”—but are they really as similar as we’ve been told?

In general, the nutrients from fruits can be quite different from those of vegetables. While fruits are often celebrated for their vitamins and natural sugars, vegetables bring to the table a unique blend of minerals and fibers.

Their respective effects on our health can also be very different. This is especially true when considering the varying content of fructose sugar in fruit. Some fruits, rich in this natural sugar, might be best enjoyed in moderation.

Not all fruit was created equal. While some are bursting with antioxidants and health-boosting properties, others might have a higher fructose content that warrants caution. It’s all about balance and making informed choices.

Find out which ones to embrace and which to approach with a bit more caution on #VitalSigns with Brendon Fallon. Dive into the sweet, sometimes tricky, world of fruits and their sugar content.
