When one is advised to cut down on sugar it essentially means sugars
and concentrated sweeteners like table sugar, honey, maple syrup and
icing sugar. Fruit contains naturally occurring sugar with many extra
benefits hence is not counted in this list.
As a calorie conscious person one should probably limit fruit intake to 2-4 serves per day to maintain a healthy weight. However, fruit also contains many nutrients like vitamins, minerals and fibre, so the benefits of including fruit in your diet far outweigh any negatives.
