Fruit. Healthy or not?

Question

I know fruit is considered healthy but also some people say it isn’t because it has sugar. I thought sugar was okay if it was a natural sugar like fructose and not processed or something? I’m trying to eat healthier and so for breakfast I’m having a slice of toasted whole wheat bread with peanut butter and a banana sliced on top. This won’t fill me up so I was going to also have an apple or some strawberries. But I don’t want to overdo it on the sugar. Is fruit bad for weight loss? I’m not really trying to lose weight but I guess I am.

Answer

Too much natural sugar is still bad for you. Your liver can only process so much. Stick to 2 serves a day if you can

Answer

Sugar is sugar.
Too much sugar has the same effect whether the sugar comes from fruit (a plant) sugar cane (a plant also), beets (also a plant). Why would sugar from a plum be more healthy than sugar from A beet? I can't think of a reason, and beet sugar is what a LOT of sugar is these days. 
Fruit has nutritionally benefits, but moderation is still important.  Stick to no more than 3 servings of fruit a day. Get the rest of your plant based nutrients from veggies.

Answer

Fruit is healthy. The difference between fruit and things like juice is that fruit has fiber to fill you up so you won't go around eating as much of it and get as much sugar as you would if you drank juice. You can drink one glass of juice and have enough sugar for the day but you would have to eat a lot of apples to get the same amount and you'd be full before then.
