Do we need fruit for muscle gains?
ad
I've been on a BB diet for around 1.5 years
During this time I have not consumed any fruit.
Will I die soon?

imafagfruit has natural sugar that helps rebuild muscles after they are broken down. no you will not die if you dont eat fruit. i rarely eat fruit and im believe my health is at its best.
Hopefully you do eat a variety of vegetables, in that case you can still get the proper amount of vitamins, minerals, and other phytonutrients you need even though you dont eat fruit. If you meanto say you really dont eat either then yes you will die. Not today or tomorrow but a slow, fucked up, unhealthy ass death that will take a little time. No joke dude you need the nutrients to be at optimal health. No fruits OR vegies for years at a time will take its toll on your health and you will be one fucked up old man "IF" you even make it to old age.
Fruit is a great source of carbs that does not give an inflammatory response when digested. Great to keep cortisol-levels down.
Not to mention all the vitamins and antioxidants, but it seems my fellow eroiders already covered that aspect ;-)
My tip to you: Always buy organic, otherwise all the Good stuff Will be needed to repair the damage made by those nasty pesticides and antifungals!
you will not die, but your body will lack vitamines and minerals and that can cause some damages to your body. you need give body everything what body need
Lots of good stuff, vitamins, are in fruit. Plus they are f'in delicious and pretty damn cheap, why aren't you eating any fruit is the real question. Toss some berries in those oats!
Yes! Fruits are important for the nutrients that they are loaded with. I eat an apple and banana every day.
No. But I think fruit can be very beneficial especially to spike insulin in the morn and after workouts. I would eat the fruit for sure.
waltrYes, within the week you will die..
On a serious note though, the body does need the vitamins/mineral found in fruits and vegetables for proper functioning.
It's summer where I live and just about all the good fruits are getting ripe, watermelons, cantaloupes, honey dew, peaches, plums, nectarines, strawberries, grapes...you don't like fruit or something? You could eat fruit non-stop all day and you won't get fat.
strawberries, cantaloupe, peaches, waterrmelons.....fuck my next snack was gonna be heavier on the protein side, but you just made me hungry for fruit....no homo.
I remember as a kid being poor we would practically live off of the fruit fields, I knew where all the trees and fields where that had food let me tell you!
