Diabetes and Diet

I have cut out most or all refined sugars and have adopted a diet of more than 75 per-cent raw fruits and vegetables. I go by the way I have been feeling, which is great mood and full of energy. But I realize many fruits such as apples and grapes contain high amounts of fruit sugar, yet I understand the body is meant to break down this type of sugars.

It seems to me everyone in the United States including myself, is likely to get diabetes, or is afraid of it.

Can a healthy, non-diabetic person (with no family history of it) develop diabetes from eating fruit sugars, even if the processes/refined sugars were cut down to near 0 intake?

You would have to purposely eat too much fruit. In other words, you would have to give up certain other things and concentrate mostly on fruits. Fruit juices? That’s another story. Most fruits have a relatively low glycemic index (GI) which does not place much of a load on your system. If all you ate was fruits, you would get tired of them long before you became diabetic. You would become diabetic much sooner if all you ate were bread and potatoes.
