Today’s question is:

How many times per week do you eat fruit?

  • Less than 7 times
  • 7–13 times
  • 14–20 times
  • More than 20 times


A great way to improve your diet is to eat to 2-3 servings of fruit every day.

There are a ton of great reasons to eat more fruit.

According to Harvard School of Public Health, a diet rich in fruits and vegetables can

  • lower blood pressure
  • reduce risk of cardiovascular diseases
  • reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes
  • help you maintain a healthy weight
  • positively impact eye and digestive health.

How do you get started?

By adding fruit to a meal or eating fruit as a snack.

A serving of fruit is 1 cup—and can be anything from grapes, a medium-sized grapefruit, or a small apple.

My favorites: apples, bananas, oranges, and berries

Which fruits have the most sugar?

  • Bananas
  • Pomegranates
  • Cherries
  • Mangoes
  • Grapes
  • Figs

Which fruits have the least sugar content?

  • Strawberries
  • Guava
  • Watermelon
  • Papaya
  • Grapefruit
  • Cantaloupe

Keep it interesting by trying a variety of fruits!

And as always – before starting a new exercise routine – check with your doctor.

I hope this made some sense for you
