Can I still eat fruit?

-

Absolutely! “Fruit is the main food that contains fructose, but you can eat as much fruit as you like because it contains such high quantities of water and fibre, it’s difficult to eat too much of it,” tells Dr Popovic.

Just be sure to eat your fruit whole, not juiced or dried, and try thinking of it as “Mother Nature’s lollies”.

“Mango, apples and grapes are all satisfying and very sweet if you pause to enjoy them,” says Dr Popovic. “When you limit the amount of sugar you have, you actually enjoy eating fruit much more.”
