These preliminary trials have found that participants eating a paleo nutrition pattern had better measures of cardiovascular and metabolic health than people eating a standard diet, though the evidence is not strong enough to recommend the paleo diet for treatment of metabolic syndrome.

CURIOSITY: Raw fruitarianism is a form of fruitarianism that quickly gains popularity. Like the name says, it means that  you only eat your food the way nature gives it to you. In other words: not baked, fried or cooked, but raw.

WHAT CAN A FRUTARIAN EAT?
A fruitarian only eats the fruits of a plant, but that doesn’t mean that a fruitarian only eats fruit. Although the list you’ve just read may look daunting.                                  There is still ample foodstuffs you can eat while maintaining a fruitarian diet:

 
THIS IS A TYPE OF FRUITARIAN MENU:
Breakfast: A big smoothie with three bananas, blueberries, dates, and about a cup of coconut milk.
Morning snack: A handful of dried peaches.
Lunch: Two massive bowls of fruit salad, filled with bananas, grapes, and berries (followed by a vitamin B12 supplement).
Afternoon snack: A handful of dried figs.
Dinner: A large bowl of chopped avocado, cucumber, and tomato, dressed with olive oil, lemon, salt, and pepper.
Dessert: A bag of raw almonds.

HOW HEALTY IS FRUTARIAN DIET?
Fruitarian diet is fine to maintain for a few days or weeks, if you make sure you get enough nutrients from it. This can be tricky, especially as a raw fruitarian. That is why in my humble opinion, a fruitarian diet does not make a good long term food plan. This diets can be very restrictive and can cause several problems: weight gain, diabetes, tooth decay, nutritional deficiencies.
