Jacqueline Alnes was a Division One runner during her freshman year of college, but her season was cut short by a series of inexplicable neurological symptoms. What started with a cough, escalated to Alnes collapsing on the track and experiencing months of unremembered episodes that stole her ability to walk and speak. Her symptoms were first dismissed by her coach and her doctor. Two years after quitting the team to heal, Alnes's symptoms returned with a severity that left her using a wheelchair for a period of months. Desperate for answers, she turned to an online community centered around two wellness gurus who claimed, without any evidence, that a strict, all-fruit diet could cure conditions like depression, eating disorders, addiction, anxiety, and vision problems. Alnes wasn't alone. From all over the world, people in pain, doubted or dismissed by medical authorities, or seeking a miracle diet that would relieve them of white, Western expectations placed on their figures, turned to fruit in hopes of releasing themselves from the perceived failings of their bodies. In The Fruit Cure, Jacqueline Alnes takes readers on a spellbinding and unforgettable journey through the world of fruitarianism, interweaving her own powerful narrative with the popularity and problematic history of fruit-based, raw food lifestyles. For readers plagued by mysterious symptoms, inundated by messages from media about how to attain 'the perfect body,' or caught in the grips of a fast-paced culture of capitalism, The Fruit Cure offers a powerful critique of the failures of healthcare systems and an inquiry into the sinister strains of wellness culture that prey on people's vulnerabilities through schemes, scams, and diets masquerading as hope.
