High-Fruit Diet
In this supervised controlled feeding study, participants will consume a diet rich in whole fruit. During the Ramp-Up Phase (Weeks 1-4), participants will gradually increase the amount of whole fruit they consume, eventually reaching 50% of calories from whole fruit. In the Main Phase (Weeks 5-12), participants will consume a whole fruit-rich, eucaloric diet that provides 50% of calories in the form of whole fruit. The non-fruit portion of the diet will be styled as a Mediterranean Diet. Participants will be required to approximately keep their weight stable throughout the intervention.
