I'm a little scared of fruit . I've had dates before and would buy a tray of
them and eat the lot!

Sugar in fruit must have the same effect on blood sugar as sweets, surely?
Maybe the fruit has more fibre in it so doesn't cause such a peak then drop
of blood sugar.

I'm going to try eating more fruit and I'll if that helps. I've just eaten
an organic pear after my lunch of organic lamb with organic sweet potato and
spinach. Very nice it was too....

Thanks for everyone's response.
