Fruits are a high-fiber, antioxidant-rich food.

- Weight gain: Fruits are not only a great replacement for unhealthy foods, but they are also a great weight loss food. Fruits are rich in water and fiber, which helps the body feel full and can prevent you from overeating.

- Lower blood sugar: Fruits are a source of healthy carbs, making them a great, quick source of fuel. They also help you avoid bloating when you start exercising.

- Unhealthy gut: Without the fiber and plant-based micronutrients (polyphenols) from eating fruits and vegetables, your gut microbiota can become unbalanced.

- Aging skin: Fruits contain many nutrients that are good for the skin, such as antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals that are important for skin health. Regularly eating fruits will help improve skin-related problems.

- Bloating, constipation: Other potential side effects of having your gut microbiome flooded with unhealthy bacteria from not eating fruit fiber are gastrointestinal issues, from nausea to reflux, where stomach acid irritates the esophagus.
