Almost unilaterally, we are told we need to eat more fruit. Fruits and vegetables contain an important array of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients, not to mention an abundance of fiber––all things that promote health and would likely be beneficial to most people’s diets.
While some fruits are encouraged on the Kaufmann diet, many are eliminated due to the sugar content. Sugar, of course, is fungi’s food of choice, and even though fruit contains a wide array of healthy compounds, the sugar content in many fruits precludes them from being encouraged on The Kaufmann anti-fungal program.
One exception to this is berries. Blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries and tart varieties of cherries are good options for getting an abundance of fruit in the diet.
Fresh berries are often seasonably available in their fresh form, but often, you can get frozen berries year round. Do not be afraid of frozen berries, or freezing fresh berries; many studies have confirmed that freezing berries preserves their inherent nutrition rather than ruining it. You can enjoy berries fresh and raw by themselves, mixed in with salads, or blended into a smoothie. You will be getting an abundance of nutrition that confers many health benefits; many of the nutrients inherent in berries are anti-fungal, so they should be enjoyed guilt-free on The Kaufmann Diet.
