Fruitarianism - Mind Map

Notice the roots of the tree - diet and philosophy, and leaves and fruits - results. You also water your tree with a right
lifestyle :)

Fruitarianism (Diet and Philosophy)

Illustrations: Fruitarian Tree and Celtic Tree: Interconnectedness

Instruction: Water your tree with good lifestyle enough sleep, exercise, fresh air, sunlight, and positive attitude!

"Fruits" - Results
Body

Health and Beauty

affluence of energy - fruits provide us with energy ready or next to ready to use.
deep refreshing sleep
prevention of most illnesses
substantial reduction of intoxication risk - animal products cause majority of all food
poisonings.
great digestion - ripe fruit are very easy to digest, and do not cause the growth of pathogenic
bacteria in our intestines.
improved endurance - many athletes certify that, and many other people who changed to fruitarianlike diets discover that they not only gain better abilities in exercising, but also feel urge to do it
more.
potentially longer life - there are only indirect indications for that, but the cumulative effect of this
diet, from preventing diseases to avoiding toxicity and over-eating, cold be just that.
lean body and prevention of all obesity-caused problems - if your primal food is fresh fruit you
just don't have the weight issue, even if you eat quite a lot. Most people though loose some weight
after changing their diet to fresh fruit based one, but after a while the weight normalizes..
smooth skin - many people say they experienced a huge improvement in their skin condition, in
some cases though one's skin can get more sensitive.
pleasant aroma - by excluding all animal products, harsh spices like garlic, synthetic food
additives, and heavily isolated and modified foods you make your body so nice to be in and to be
near that it is just amazing.
flexibility and rapid recovery time
bright eyes - I don't know why is it so, but it seems like one's eyes get truly clear and sparkling.
Maybe it is only because the whole face looks better, or the mood of the person is mostly good :)
improved vision - by eating various fruit we consume plenty of pro-vitamin A, and some studies
demonstrated a special role of dark-colored berries in preservation of excellent vision.
fast elimination - this is a very important function of our bodies: to put out everything we do not
need (any more). The fresh light food travels fast through the body and it prevents imbalances in
intestinal microflora and self-intoxication by toxins in digestive tract..
absence of food addictions - modern foods are fool of addictive substances, naturally occurring
in food (opiates in milk products) to synthetic Exitotoxins and half-artificial ones (like refined
sugars and oils). They make us overeat on stuff our bodies don't need and to under-appreciate
good foods we can profit from, so excluding them from your diet makes it easy and enjoyable to
eat healthy, sometimes it requires some adjustment period, which can take from one month to a
year, or maybe longer..

World

Benefits

reforestation
better climate
prevention of soil erosion - by roots of greater plants.
purified air
decentralized agrarian system - more freedom for people, more stability, more variety.
beauty of trees all around - flowering green
preserved ocean life - no need for highly destructive and inefficient industrial fishing.
clean water and preservation of sweet water resources - no farm-animal sewage in natural
water reservoirs, much lower use of water per pound of food in production.
food abundance: 3-Dimensional fruit trees give the highest acreage yield *
reduction of Earth surface use, allowing bio-diversity and wild life flourishing
cotton paper lasts 400 years - botanical purpose of cotton fiber is to aid in seed dispersal.
profound reduction of suffering of conscious beings

* Acreage Yield
Compare: apple and pear trees give 35,000 lbs per acre a year; strawberries: 45,500; pineapple: 30-60,000; oranges: 3040,000, papaya: 28,000; sweet cherries: 14,000; grapes: 9,000; blueberries: 8,000; corn - 8,000 (can be used to produce
plastic, diapers and packing material); rice: 7,000 pounds per acre; wheat: 4,000; peanuts and almonds: 3,000;
soybeans: 2,000 (used also for ink and paint), sunflower - 1,500, chestnut and pecan trees give 1,000-2,000; cotton - 500
pounds per acre (for cloths and paper).
Some non-fruit cultures are very efficient too: lettuce: 24,000 pounds per acre,.
Compare this to red meat (edible carcass weight) - 48 lbs per acre (TX).
An rchards of centenarian trees can yield more than 450,000 pounds of fruit per acre a year
Wheat can produce 3-4 million calories per acre and potatoes can produce 6-8 million calories per acre. ... I got 288
pounds of fruit off the first tree and my orchard is on a grid of 200 trees per acre. That means this tree produced the
equivalent of 57,600 pounds per acre. At 236 calories per pound for raw apples, this equals 13,593,600 calories per acre
for an apple tree producing less than 300 pounds per tree. This is 3.4 times the calorie production for wheat and 1.7
times the value of potatoes (using 4 million calories per acre for wheat and 8 million for potatoes - the upper end of the
spread). ... Now let's consider commercial apple production. ... At half a bin, or 500 pounds per tree and with 200 trees
per acre, the calorie value of commercial apple production jumps to 100,000 pounds per acre, or 23.6 million calories per
acre. This is nearly 3 times the calorie yield of the most optimistic calorie value for potatoes and almost 6 times the most
optimistic calorie value for wheat! ... Planting trees is an investment in the future and it takes 4-5 years for production to
come on, but once the apples start producing, the amount of high-quality food produced is astonishing. Apples do take
some management, but the labor costs are quite low compared to vegetables. If there is a perfect food, from both a
farmer and a consumer perspective, it exists an apple.

"Roots" Conduct
Diet
Formula: Food = Fruit ;)
Fruit
Better not mixed, one type at a time - The best results could be reached by integrating mono-meals in the diet, and
mixing fruits minimally in all cases, using none ore minimal amount of plant additives (spices)..
1. ripe and undamaged.
2. fresh: minimal storing time (great if right from the tree, or from the own orchard, locally grown, minimal
refrigeration), unprocessed (preferably raw , not heated, not freezed, not smocked, not fermented, etc.).
3. clean: naturally grown (with minimum chemicals Pesticides, certified organic , stored without additives),
uncontaminated (no fungus, no harmful bacteria) ( no Toxic raw foods), cleaned from dirt.
4. juicy: sweet (Examples: mangoes, melons), non-sweet (Examples: tomatoes, squash).
5. optional: nuts (Examples: walnuts, pecans), seeds (Examples: pine nuts, sunflower seeds, millet), legumes
(Examples: green peas, soaked lentils).
6. else: almost nothing actually :)
Water
1. sweet and soft: no salts, minimum additives.
2. clean: naturally clean (from natural reservoirs, spring water), distilled, filtered (filters changed or cleaned regularly,
multi-stage filtering).
All
1. moderate temperature: not too cold, not too warm.
2. enough: as much as needed, not too much at once

Philosophy
Formula: Live and let live.
Ethics
1. Ahimsa Cause no injury to any living being: no harm, no pain, no killing - in mind, by saying or doing.
2. Caring for: people and animals (kindness, avoiding animal products, protection of their environment, plants and
all life (eating their fruit only, not essential organs, preserving bio-diversity, compact constructions out of nonliving matter like stones, avoiding usage of new wood in things like furniture, using non-wooden or recycled
paper).
Cooperation
1. Prosperity for all: win-win solutions, global consideration, open and truthful information sharing, fair pay for
common resources like air, water, earth; legal requirements to keep them intact),
2. Efficiency: in using natural resources, in reusing and recycling, in production and new product development, in
organization, in communication and management, optimized distribution.
