A cardiologist warns that eating too much fruit can lead to diabetes, coronary artery disease, and fatty liver: "It should be consumed only in"
Essential vitamins, fiber, and minerals are abundant in fruits. They also include a variety of antioxidants that are good for your health, therefore many individuals include them in their daily meals. But is consuming too much of your favorite fruit on a regular basis bad for your health? Whether fruits are as healthy as we believe was clarified by Dr. Pradip Jamnadas, MD, an interventional cardiologist from Orlando, Florida, who explained that although fruit provides nutrients, the natural sugars therein can become hazardous when ingested in excess.
Dr. Pradip emphasized in a September 24 Instagram post from The Diary of A CEO podcast that high blood sugar, even from fruit, can affect insulin and general health. The cardiologist cautioned against eating too many fruits when asked during the podcast if there are any "watch-out foods" that people believe are good but that one should avoid if seeking to have an optimally healthy heart.
He emphasized that because fruit contains too much sugar, it should only be consumed when it is in season. The doctor claims that fructose is a form of sugar and that fatty liver disease can result from consuming too much sugar. "Our excessive fruit consumption is another factor that is contributing to diabetes, fatty liver, and coronary artery disease," he emphasized.
