What is a fruit-based diet?

The fruitarian diet is a subset of the raw vegan diet and it works just the way it sounds—you eat mostly (or all) fruit on the fruitarian diet. The fruitarian diet is a step further and you will eat your calories most of fresh ripe fruits. 

A fruitarian diet means that raw fruit should make up 50–75% of your foods consumed. The strictest fruitarians, however, may eat up to 90% fruit. The fruitarian diet is already exciting especially in the tropical climates, because it’s easier to get a good quality of cheap fresh ripe tropical fruits.

Following a raw vegan diet means eating only plant-based foods. A raw food diet is essentially a vegan diet that excludes foods that have been heated, refined, pasteurized, or otherwise treated. The difference between a raw food diet and a fruitarian diet is that fruitarians only eating raw fruit, nuts, and seeds.
