    Don't worry about sugar in fruit. Eat it, you need the vitamins.

    I'd say, don't worry *too much* about the sugar in fruit. Eating it moderately is certainly healthy and gives you a whole lot of the micronutrients that you need. But don't go binging on 5 oranges, 2 bananas, and 3 apples every day. :)
    The fructose in fruits is still sugar, and in fact, it's among the most rapidly digesting of all sugars. So I'd say moderation is probably 2-3 servings of fruit in a day.
