Just wanted to comment on this. A few things I have found in research dealing with fruits and fructose. Apples and pears for example may only have about 5-10g of fructose per 100g of product, not as high as some people think, berry sources are even lower in fructose levels. As well you must take into consideration that although fruits/fructose may have a lower GI rating, fructose dose not require insulin to be shuttled into cells and stored as fat. Having too much fructose can definitely lead to EASY storage as fat. Like Pinn said moderation is key with all things. Just wanted to put that info out there.
