The idea that fruits and veggies may not be as healthy as believed has been my obsession for a few days, and I've found some discussions that flesh out the issue a bit more: http://donmatesz.blogspot.com/2009/08/phytochemical-fallacies.html http://is.gd/3Zg9m http://mangans.blogspot.com/2009/07/antioxidants-prevent-health-promoting.html http://is.gd/3Zgc6 http://high-fat-nutrition.blogspot.com/2007/12/fruit-and-vegetables-re-post.html http://is.gd/3ZgdQ FWIW, after a few days of eating less fruit and fewer carrots, and a bit more protein and fat, my weight is the lowest it's been in a couple months. I'd been around 178 for about a year, binged for a couple weeks this summer on ice cream, went up to 183, ditched the ice cream, and stalled out at 180. This morning I was 178.2. If I keep this up, maybe I'll get those six-pack abs after all.
