Fructose alters hundreds of brain genes, which can lead to a wide range of diseases
I'm sure there must be an explanation of this from a Peat angle.

Do we even know the fructose content of natural occuring fruit? I am under the impression that the fruits we consume were genetically selected for high sugar content in general; that non domesticated fruits are fairly low in carbohydrate content in general, and are more sour in quality than sweet.
AIUI, the amount of overall sugars and of fructose in fruit vary depending on species, variety and growing conditions. You can measure brix to see sugars in juice. Many fruit can have a brix of ~8-11%. Some are more or less juicy/fibrous etc. In some fruits, the combination or free glucose, fructose and sucrose comes down to around half fructose. Some higher, some lower.Do we even know the fructose content of natural occuring fruit?

NvmAnimals don’t want to get eaten, but I think it’s pretty obvious fruit does want to get eaten.
After the six weeks, the rats were put through the maze again. The animals that had been given only the fructose navigated the maze about half as fast than the rats that drank only water -- indicating that the fructose diet had impaired their memory. The rats that had been given fructose and DHA, however, showed very similar results to those that only drank water -- which strongly suggests that the DHA eliminated fructose's harmful effects.
