Consuming a high fruit diet to cure diabetes, based on claims that humans do not convert fructose to fat or activate de novo lipogenesis from fructose, led to a significant increase in hemoglobin A1c in diabetic patients.

“believe it or not i've had a number of my patients who have read the book and i won't even mention the name that you should go on a high fruit diet to cure your diabetes and that's because they claim based on animal studies that we don't convert fructose into pulmonary and we do not activate the denovo lipogenesis in the liver from fructose well lo and behold when my diabetic patients did that they went from a hemoglobin a1cu6 to a hemoglobin a1c of 12 in three months following this program and we've done it repeatedly when we took their fructose away from them in the form of whole fruit that's all they ate it plummeted back down to normal
