I have some questions with regards to this because some of the high fructose/fruit intake is conlficting with physique goals, particularly in a lean massing phase where an individual would be consuming a calorie surplus.
It was my understanding that a high fructose intake in the context of a calorie surplus would result in hepatic conversion to triglycerides a lot easier and more readily than normal. Secondly, I was under the impression that muscle glycogen stores are much better replenished with glucose and starches than fructose...in fact, I thought that fructose only had the ability to replenish liver glycogen stores.
I could see the elimination of starches and utilizing mainly fructose/fruit in the context of a bulk may pose problems with regards to muscle glycogen fullness and creating an environment more condusive for fat gain due to hepatic conversion of fructose to triglycerides, particularly in the presence of a calorie surplus...
