Often we snack when we are thirsty, not necessarily hungry. Fruits can help quench our thirst, while also offering a wonderful source of nutrients and natural fiber. Some fruits, like bananas, are higher in natural sugars, and should be eaten more sparingly if you are counting calories.

According to Dr. Weil's Anti-Inflammatory Food Pyramid Diet, eat "3-4 servings per day (one serving is equal to 1 medium size piece of fruit, ½ cup chopped fruit, ¼ cup of dried fruit)."

Note these healthier choices suggested by Dr. Weil: "Raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, peaches, nectarines, oranges, s, pink grapefruit, red grapes, plums, pomegranates, blackberries, cherries, apples, and pears-all lower in glycemic load than most tropical fruits."

Dr. Weil emphasizes that "Fruits are rich in flavonoids and carotenoids with both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. Go for a wide range of colors, choose fruit that is fresh in season or frozen, and buy organic when possible." http://www.drweil.com/drw/ecs/pyramid/press-foodpyramid.html (more)

Hello Elias,
To get the best of fruits, I urge you to eat them first thing in the morning, for best results 15 minutes before breakfast. Fruits generally are rich in antioxidants which promote the body's immunity.
