I eat a ton of fruit. I personally think most paleo people are limiting fruit based on dogma(which is based off faulty science) to there detriment.

I don't eat a lot of fruit, but it seems to me you've got it dialed in on what works for you.

I don't see any harm if it is working for you. There is no one-size-fits-all with paleo. It's all about figuring out what works best for your body. It sounds like you've found it.

I probably eat more fruit than most paleo folks. I usually had at least 3 servings a day in the summer. I'm eating less fruit now because I eat locally and seasonally as much as possible and there is less fruit available at this time of year. However, I generally don't eat more than one serving of nuts or nut butter at most. Some days I don't have nuts at all.

I definitely eat more fruit than is typical for Paleo. One reason is likely that, when my health and digestion were very poor, I lived on mashed bananas for a few months. They were abut all I could digest. I just don't have a real fear of fruit - for better or worse.

Nuts are another story, as they don't seem to digest well for me.

But, lots of bananas - often balanced out with coconut oil and rice protein - tend to work really well for me. Mangos also work really well for me in smoothies. Apples don't work very well for me and neither does citrus.

For me, personally, I basically don't consume any fruit (other than the very rare banana), but I compensate by getting my carbs from sweet potatoes, squash, and other starchier vegetables. I know that my body doesn't do well on VLC, I aim to get in around 100-130g carbs a day.

Fruit and carbs in general are all based on your activity level and your goals. If your hitting it hard 4x/week and your already lean without metabolic syndrome and your only 22 so your metabolism is naturally higher than older persons then have at it.

The nuts thing is more about o6/o3 ratio than anything. I like em myself, so it falls under the "whatever" category for me. May want to limit them if your fighting an autoimmune inflammatory disease.

Like the others who have responded, sounds like you are dialing it in. If you "look, feel, and perform" the best with more fruit and nuts, I say get it. I usually will have one banana, a couple servings of berries/cherries and maybe an orange in a day. I'll also usually have a small handful or two of almonds and/or cashews. Seems to work for me as well.
