In this episode of Conquer Your Weight, Dr. Sarah Stombaugh tackles one of the most common nutrition myths: that eating fruit leads to weight gain.

You’ll learn:

  • Why fruit is packed with essential nutrients, fiber, and antioxidants.
  • How fruit fits into a balanced diet—and why it’s different from added sugars.
  • The truth about fructose in fruit versus processed foods.
  • Practical ways to include fruit in your meals and snacks for satiety and satisfaction.
  • How much fruit is “enough,” and whether you should worry about eating too much.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your morning banana or afternoon apple is sabotaging your weight loss goals, this episode will set the record straight. Fruit isn’t the enemy—in fact, it may be one of your best allies on your health journey.

Listen now and find out how to enjoy fruit with confidence while staying on track with your goals!
