      I don’t claim to know if she put her health in a compromised state or not, but look at recent pictures.

      You can’t get all the nutrients needed from just fruit. This is fact. Just because some fruits may have some fats and proteins doesn’t mean they have enough to meet nutritional needs.

              Except it does when you eat nothing but carbs and fiber with little to no fat and protein.

              Just because some fruits may have some fats and proteins doesn’t mean they have enough to meet nutritional needs.

              Nothing I said changed…

                  If I’m wrong, then please show examples of fruits that contain all the necessary nutrients needed by the human body, including the needed levels of fats and amino acid complete proteins.
