This is the stupidest thing I have ever read.

I eat fruits instead of juicing them. However, I eat fruits with a meal and I don't eat fruit after 5pm if I can help it. If I eat a banama, I eat with peanut butter to reduce it's glycymic index. But then I am 50+.

People in cultures that eat fruit don’t gain the 60lbs to begin with...


Are you aware of the growing burden if diabetes in the developing world? For example, as of 2017, the percentage of overweight women in Bangladesh, even rural areas, exceeded the percentage of underweight women. -Public health professional


Absolutely. And it’s because American style fast foods are becoming increasingly prevalent in the developing world. So, yes, if you stop eating traditional foods and adopt an American diet, you’ll still get fat - just like Americans do.

But I can not drink like a fish if I eat fruit!

Eat a banana a day. It's important for potassium and lowering blood pressure, especially if someone is older than 50

I eat 1-2 bananas a day. In terms of vitamins and nutrition they really cannot be beat.

Look up freelee the banana girl if you want banana craziness.

well, they're not 60+lb overweight to begin with so maybe you should be impressed at their ability to not get fat in the first place


The rules are different for maintainers than never-fat-types it’s true.

Are bananas like a top 5 "healthy" produce/food to avoid? What else is on that list? Potato, I assume.
