    You can’t get all the nutrients needed from just fruit. This is fact. Just because some fruits may have some fats and proteins doesn’t mean they have enough to meet nutritional needs.

      Ah, moving the goalposts now. You didn’t say nutrients before; you said “fat and protein” specifically.

        A major part of their “nutrients” point is fats and proteins, read the last reply again.

        Just because some fruits may have some fats and proteins doesn’t mean they have enough to meet nutritional needs.

          Oh I read it. That doesn’t change the fact that that’s not what they said at first.

            Except it does when you eat nothing but carbs and fiber with little to no fat and protein.

            Just because some fruits may have some fats and proteins doesn’t mean they have enough to meet nutritional needs.

            Nothing I said changed…

              Right, and the first quote is wrong like I said in the beginning. The “little to no fat and protein” part is not applicable to fruits. It’s other nutrients, "nutrients being referenced in later comments.

                If I’m wrong, then please show examples of fruits that contain all the necessary nutrients needed by the human body, including the needed levels of fats and amino acid complete proteins.

                    You can be vegan all you want, but ignoring basic nutrition will always result in disaster.

                    It was literally the second sentence…
