Dale Bredessens The End of Alzheimers good place to start. Any ketogenic site will help Gorillas in the jungle only eat fruit 6 months a year. Man was not made to consume fruits on a daily basis. Pop a strawberry in your mouth at noon—might as well smoke a cigarette. My wife finally listened to me and went to only green bananas and lower sugar berries. Lost 10% body weight with no effort

Fruit varies a lot in sugar content... Apples for the table will tend to be around 12 brix... maybe 12% sugar by weight... but dessert apples can reach 24 brix... as much as 24% sugar. Table grapes same thing... most will be 8 - 10 - 12 brix... similar % sugar... while wine grapes easily and routinely reach and exceed 24 to 30 brix... the sugar converting to alcohol in wine in roughly 2:1 ratio... so 24 brix makes 12% alcohol... So, 15 grams of sugar might be 150 grams of table grapes... the average table apple being 70 to 100 grams... might have 7 to 12 grams of sugar... Made more problematic, over time, because what people want in fruits is "bigger" and "sweeter"... so size of marketable products grows over time, along with sugar content... That's true in all fruits... including tomatoes... many varieties of which are now as sweet as grapes and apples when fully ripened... And. of course, sugars are concentrated by drying... raisins being 67 to 72 percent sugar... etc., and in prepared fruits, sugar (and corn syrup) almost always added... Best solution... grow your own... choose smaller varieties... that are less sweet... and eat them fresh or frozen without adding sugar... But, sugar is addictive... you might have to go through sugar withdrawal for a month or two before you can re-balance your palate to find things that are less sweet than "commercial standard" to be as palatable... But, the focus on fruit still entirely misplaced... as long as you drink sodas and similar prepared foods that all have massive sugars added... A typical small yogurt, now... if it is "fruit flavored"... likely has more than 20 grams of sugar added... Even plain Greek yogurts will have sugar added up to 11 grams... while a naturally (and fully) fermented and unsweetened commercially made yogurt should have only 7 to 8 grams of sugar. Again, make your own... which is really easy, way cheaper, and a whole lot better, with control over the quality of the inputs... and you can ferment them longer and get the sugars down a bit more... ?
