Fruits and Dieting

I am often asked regarding fruits and fruit juices as part of a weight loss diet plan. Well here is a simple answer:

1) Avoid store bought fruit juices as much as possible, as these often have added sugar (you want to avoid sugar at all costs). Read the labels before you buy! Most grocery store fruit juices have very little fruit in them! Now if you get your own fruit and juice them, then sure go ahead and drink the juice.
2) As far as fruits are concerned you want to avoid the high fructose, high glycemic fruits, which will lead to weight and body fat gain.

High glycemic fruits: Bananas, grapes, mangos, papaya, raisins, watermelon

Low glycemic fruits: Apples, oranges, pears, peaches, plums, pineapple

Now that you know, choose wisely.
