Healthy men who are not obese, can safely eat 3-4 fruits a day, women - 2-3. Anyone who is intensely involved in sports can add to this amount another 1-2 fetuses. Different foods are absorbed in the body in different ways. Guided by this, you need not calories, but you should count a glycemic index. The higher this index, the higher the level of sugar in the blood, and therefore, the higher the risk of obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases. Each fruit raises the level of sugar in its own way. Relatively low index in apples (54), oranges (63), grapes (66), higher - in apricots (82), bananas (94). The highest index for watermelon (103) and dates (141). The size of the fruit has matters. In an average apple - 59 calories, and in a large one is 100. I advise you to eat at a time not more than one serving of fruit. One serving is a fruit containing 60 calories. It can be an apple of medium size, a piece of watermelon or melon, 10-12 grapes, 1 nectarine, 2 peaches, half of banana, half a grapefruit, 1 mandarin.

To answer your question Lamya - Fruit is GREAT FOR YOU. Its natures natural cleaner, health provider and your doctor. You wonder are some fruits will put on pounds. I can think of one if you eat too much "IT" mite and that is Mango's. Mangos have great fiber in then and eating too much fiber can bind you up meaning not going to the bathroom on time. I eat loads of fruit and prefer it over eating most foods. Breadfruit will make you drunk or as its called "Durian". But all in all eat fruit always and you see a change in energy and greater skin tone, hair, teeth, and nails. If more people would eat fruit there would be less gastrointestinal problems in people.

Candy contains mainly empty calories -- supplying few to no nutrients. Candy is generally a simple carbohydrate, meaning that the body can use it for energy very shortly after consumption. Empty calories in large quantities are unhealthy, but that doesn't mean you should deprive yourself of candy entirely -- but consume it in moderation. Candy is very calorie dense, so you will find that the typical serving sizes are quite small. For example, a 1.7-ounce bag of sugar-coated chocolate pieces contains 240 calories, 10 grams of fat and 34 grams of carbohydrates. Based upon a 2,000-calorie diet, the fat in one of these bags is 15 percent of your recommended daily allowance and the carbohydrates are 11 percent of your RDA. Candy and fruits are primarily sources of carbohydrates. However, candy is high in sugar and vegetables are not. Even starchy fruits and vegetables, such as potatoes, contain valuable fiber, vitamins and minerals. According to the USDA, a serving of russet potatoes contain 4 grams of fiber, 35-percent of your recommended daily allowance of vitamin C, 4 percent of your RDA of calcium and 10 percent of your RDA of iron. Vegetables are always healthier than candy when you're looking for a starchy snack.
Try to reserve candy only for times when you will be doing something to burn off those extra calories, like before a run or playing a sports game. Unlike candy, which should be consumed in only moderate amounts, fruits and vegetables should be consumed frequently. A balanced diet should include a variety of fruits and vegetables throughout your week, including dark green fruits and vegetables, red and orange colored fruits and vegetables, beans and peas, starchy fruit and vegetables.
