Will fruit make me fat?

The tough & beautiful Jordan McDonald obviously has very little back fat
This is such a popular question now with Paleo as popular as it is. The Paleo way of eating frowns upon fruit and using any type of sweeteners and is not fond of carbohydrates in general.
The subscap measurement in the BioSignature method answers this question in short order. The subscap or the "back fat" measurement is an indicator whether you can tolerate carbs or not. The general rule is if the back fat is above 10mm - SORRY - carbs are not your friend and they will make you fat. If you are one of the lucky 10% that have a back fat measurement of 10mm or less you can actually tolerate carbs and stay lean.
Of course commone sense comes into play here and you still need to make wise carb choices and stay away from too many sweets, refined carbs and grains.
If this is too complicated for you or you don't have access to Jrod to check your back fat try this simple method.

Tip: If you can't tolerate carbs try keeping your carb choices at 70 or below on the glycemic index. Link to a great glycemic index data base http://www.glycemicindex.com/index.php
