The majority of calories in fruit are from carbohydrates, but the total number of carbohydrates per pound of fruit can be much lower in some fruits than others. Fruits contain large amounts of water and fiber. Diets high in fruit can greatly reduce the risk of chronic disease, so reduction or elimination of them from one's diet for weight loss purposes is not recommended.
