Hey man I'm not a registered dietician or anything but I'd be careful about that diet if I were you. I get that fruit has a lot of fiver and nutrients and is low cal but that's still like a shit ton of sugar (especially if you're doing the "official" kind of fruitarianism where your diet is 75% or more fruit, that's waaaay too much sugar.) you should try vegetables instead of you want a plant based diet, they have all the nutrients and stuff of fruit but won't mess you up with all that sugar. I knew a guy, really fat, decided to go fruit-based and he lost a ton of weight but he got diabetes in just two years. Almost his whole life eating shit food but eating too much fruit for two years pushed him over the edge and so he was skinny with type two diabetes because of fruitarianism. Idk how long you plan to be on this diet but it's something to think about because a diet ultra high in sugar causes a ton of problems no matter where the sugar comes from unfortunately.
The diabetes thing has been one of my concerns actually, you sound pretty well clued up
Lots of sweet fruit makes my boyfriends cum taste sweet
I eat a lot of fruit and I'm vegan but I wouldn't recommend a Fruitarian diet.
Most fruit falls in the 4-8% range on protein, so you're really going to have to find it hard in whatever else you're eating, you better get some green veggies in there too. Unless you're eating coconuts and avocados regularly, you're not likely to get enough fat from fruit to maintain your body's basic fat needs.
Being healthy on a vegan diet is pretty easy. My breakfast is often just fruit. I frequently get some fruit with lunch. But fruitarian makes it hard for your body to get everything it needs - and I've only addressed the macros. There's a bunch of micronutrients that are easier to get from other plant sources than fruit.
Veganism is stupid enough, but why anybody would go on an even worse subset fad diet like all raw or fruititarian makes zero sense. You're putting yourself at so much risk of a deficiency, and even if you plan your diet well enough to not have a deficiency, you're still going to end up with severe health effects like liver damage, insulin resistance, pancreatic damage, and damaged teeth.

The sugar in fruit is the last thing to be concerned about. Sugar in whole fruits isn't associated with health problems.

>The WHO guideline does not refer to the sugars in fresh fruits and vegetables, and sugars naturally present in milk, because there is no reported evidence of adverse effects of consuming these sugars.
You can run into vitamin and mineral deficiencies if your diet is all fruit though
Man I got hit on by a fruitarian once.
I was in really good shape cause I was a wrestler and I was 17. She wasagbe 24? Anyway she kept describing in vivid detail how she wanted to only eat 'phallic fruit'. 17 year old me wasn't ready for her kind of weird.
Now, only two years later, I'd totally fuck her kind of weird.
