fruit is okay because the fiber prevents the absorption of fructose
when you consume the fructose with fiber so your blueberries you're feeding your microbiome that fructose wasn't for you
in addition the intestine you have fiber in a natural fruit and that slows the absorption so the concentration of fructose that gets to the liver is lower so there's less atp depletion
