A survey found that among adult women over 18 years of age who eat "fruit meals" as a fashion trend in the city, about 30% suffer from anemia. The human body requires comprehensive nutrition, but the content of life-sustaining protein in fruit is very low.
Long-term use of fruit as a main meal will definitely lead to insufficient intake of protein and iron, which in turn causes anemia, reduced immune function, and other issues.
Experts believe that this phenomenon is related to their habit of eating more fruit and less meat, or relying primarily on fruit as their main food source.
If a person does not eat meat or soy products and wants to get their daily required protein entirely from fruit, they would need to eat at least 9,000 grams to meet their body's needs. Such a fruit intake is difficult for any woman to achieve. At the same time, the non-heme iron in fruit is difficult for the human body to utilize.
