the man behind a range of diets: The Fast 800, 5:2, The Way of Life and his newest diet – The Fast 800 Keto. With decades of knowledge when it comes to losing weigh, there are a couple of foods he advises someone cuts out if they’re looking for fast results. One of which is the common fruit, banana, which most households consume almost every day.
During a conversation with sbs.com, the diet expert said: “Fruit is great if you’re healthy but if you have weight to lose, then switching to less sugary fruits like apples and berries might be wise.”
For example, mangoes are quite high in natural sugars: one average-sized mango contains 45 grams of sugar.
To put that in comparison with other friuts, one cup of grapes has 23 grams, a cup of raspberries has five grams, while a whole advocado contains 1.33 grams of sugar.
Dr Michael continued: “If you are young and slim so you can get away with [eating sugary fruits] you can’t particularly [consume lots of mangoes or banans] if you are looking to lose weight.”
