Answer 1

Fruits are very high in sugar (even though it is natural sugar), and if you have a tendency toward hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) it could cause problems.

Answer 2

Fruit contains a lot of acids essential for the body, but too much can be harmful, basically the only harmful thing is that it will increase your hormones when at puberty, all it will do is give you huge nasty pimples, but on the other hand you will become taller, and have a stronger immune system. So basically its no problem whatsoever, just stay away from the canned fruits they are very very very bad for health.

Answer 3

Eating fruits is good and healthly but you eating to much can be a problem . Remember your body need things other than sugar , it need protiens and vitimins to help it function so cut down to about 3 -4 fruits a day that good enough.And eat little more meat an gains to balance your self out.

Answer 4

Too much of anything can be dangerous. Since everyones body is different no one can say whether your eating too much. It is best to use a program like Fit Day (www.fitday.com) to see how much of specific nutrients your getting in.

Fruits contain sugar, actually everything we eat is turned into sugar (glucose), but you want to be careful if your near being or are diabetic. Also, too much of any specific nutrient can also be dangerous, since they are not all like Vitamin C which you just urinate out. For example, Potassium. Too many bananas can lead to a condition called hyperkalemia and can lead to heart failure.

Generally you'll feel ill if your overloading yourself. So, do definitely use a program to see how much nutrients your taking in.

Only bad thing is that if you eat a lot you'll plug up like a clogged toilet and you won't be able to "go". Or, worst case scenario, you get low iron and protein from lack of mean and become anemic.
