Bannanas cause mild stomache cramps when I eat them. I don't eat them
at all now.
Dates are great. They taste very high is sugar. I occasionaly eat
lots of them.
Any one else have experience with dates?
How are dates precessed? Are they simpy dried? Do they come that way
right off the palm tree?

Too heavy and sweet. This one week acts as a cleansing period so you
want
to eat light, easily digested fruits. I will admit, though, that I
have no
scientific evidence for my bias against these three. Just what I have
read
and my own physical reactions to them. I do eat them when I am not
doing a
"fruit fast". Also, many people I know don't gain weight from fruit
except
bananas. I don't really know anyone who eats enough dates or figs to
know
how it affects them.
