Stefan,

I believe the same website states a commonly accepted definition of 75%
fruit, including the vegetable fruits, but not grains and nuts, from what I
recall.  Any dietary category does not normally mean ONLY eating from that
category, just as carnivores do NOT only eat meat.

The gorilla is not a good comparison, since many eat primarily vegetation,
which is in fact low in "caloric" density.  I do not eat all day long,
eating fruits and leaves.

true

seems that some people can do fine and others do not.  I wonder what exactly
the physical differences could be, since we can not blame it all on doing
the frugivorous thing wrong.
