Well, over the last 5 years I’ve swayed in my own thoughts on what it means to eat a fruitarian diet, but generally I believe the following:
First, Fruitarianism is not a religion, but it does lend to tremendous spiritual-like feelings at times. When you eat a diet that is so simple, so close to nature, so different from how most everyone else eats, you can feel different in more ways than one.
To be truthful, it’s felt like somewhat of a religious undertaking at times, some people have accused me trying to start ‘a cult diet’.
Rather, my focus has been on eating with more instinct instead of being swayed by the marketing madness that drives our food choices and culture today. I try to think about food in an equal way that I desire to walk on my own 2 feet. I try to focus intensely on food that I eat as being something inherently natural, that goes beyond anything that I could learn, rather I just know is right.
Raw vegetation as it’s made in nature, usually brightly colored, naturally beautiful, sweet, savory and full of water:Fruit! It's more naturally pleasing and satiating than anything else that I’ve eaten as food.
Fruitarianism isn't just for naturalist and environmentalist. It also attracts elitists, and people who are selfishly looking to have only the best things in their lives. The diet seems to attract a lot of people either looking for the Garden of Eden or even some form of diet immortality.
Sorry to break the news, but fruitarianism will not (I repeat) NOT give you immortality, nor will it guarantee you extra years of life or fortune. No diet will give you that, no matter how local, organic or ripe your fruit is, it’s not going to save your life forever!
Whatever your motivation is to change your diet, I believe fruit will make you happier and healthier.
I’ve experienced fantastic health and vitality since adopting a fruitarian diet. I’ve become almost super-human when compared to the standard population in both physical, mental and emotional strengths. I can’t emphatically recommend a fruitarian diet more, I really believe in it, it’s been a rebirth-of-sorts for me, and I want others to experience the same.
