I’ll eat frozen zucchini and squash. I had some broccoli at Christmas. But I can’t remember the last time I had any fruit. I think it was sometime during the summer. Can not eating fruit cause diseases or other health problems? I have been feeling kind of sick lately and I can’t tell if it’s because of my moods and my depression or my diet.

I can't really answer your question for you authoritatively. I'm not anything even close to a nutritionist.
 I take it at face value that it's important to eat vegetables & fruits... probably more-so vegetables than fruit. However, if you're concerned about the nutritional completeness of your diet, perhaps consider taking a multivitamin?  Here are links to 5 articles, from PC's archives, that talk about the link between diet & mental illness in general as well as depression in particular:Diet Plays Important Role for Mental Health Why Your Diet Can Make or Break Depression Recovery Can Nutrition Help Fight or Ward Off Depression? 7 Foods That May Contribute to Your Depression 10 Nutritional Deficiencies that May Cause Depression

I would think fruits are a good source of vitamin C in particular. And, of course, veggies supply important vitamins too. And yes, a multivitamin will help, but it's best to get what we need from food. Also, the digestive tract is aided in its work by fruits and veggies, especially for fiber.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
