First of all, SE Asians have had access to a great deal of fruit for millenia, and rural Chinese are no exception.  Secondly, Inuit are a very poor group to try to make your point with:<p><i>"Inuit Greenlanders, who historically have had limited access to fruits and vegetables, have the worst longevity statistics in North America. Research from the past and present shows that they die on the average about 10 years younger and have a higher rate of cancer than the overall Canadian population"</i><p><a href="http://www.diseaseproof.com/archives/diet-myths-do-primitive-peoples-really-live-longer.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.diseaseproof.com/archives/diet-myths-do-primitive...</a><p>Edit: I don't doubt that highly processed foods that are full of fructose are dangerous.  Of course eating a banana is different from getting the same amount of fructose by drinking soda.
