Our community encourages the principle of “do the best you can with what you have.” Although seedless fruits are not considered the best or a very optimal variety of fruits compared to seeded, they're better than nothing if nothing better is available to you.
Seedless fruits can be part of your diet until and if you reach the point where you feel you aren't benefitting from them any longer.
Some people will feel a noticeable difference between a seedless fruit and its seeded counterpart in terms of how effects, the seeded variety usually being more powerful.
It's similar to when a person plateaus on vegetables and must step up their approach to break through; sometimes seedless fruit won't take you far enough.
Some people are sensitive to seedless fruits in a way that makes them feel uncomfortable, unbalanced, anxious or jittery, after eating them. If you experience this, exclude the seedless fruit from your diet and substitute with either the seeded variety (whenever possible) or another kind of (seeded) fruit.
So, how about the good ol’ question that goes something like: “Organic but seedless or non-organic and seeded; which should I choose?”
It's generally only recommended to go with the organic and seedless option if:
- you're a person who is neurologically compromised or hypersensitive to chemical residues (pesticides, herbicides, etc.) and should try your best to avoid triggering symptoms like shortness of breath, anxiety, etc.; and
- you've got no means of washing non-organic fruit effectively (such as with food grade hydrogen peroxide and apple civer vinegar); or
- there are no better or more appealing alternatives.
Nonetheless, Dr. Morse has seen many people successfully detoxify using low quality grocery store fruit and seedless fruit. But to maintain the most balanced approach. it's always better to get the highest quality, seeded and organically cultivated fruit possible.
As part of a long-term diet for health maintenance, we don't encourage eating seedless fruit (or, at least keep it to a minimum).
Be sure to thoroughly wash non-organic produce that don't have thick protective rinds, peels or husks.
NOTE: Seedless isn't synonymous with genetically engineered (or genetically modified). Seedless produce is propagated through traditional means of careful plant selection and breeding to yield the desired characteristics and qualities. This process of cultivating seedless produce is known as parthenocarpy. Introduction of species-foreign genetic material (from, say, an animal or entirely different fruit or vegetable) isn't involved in this process.
Nonetheless, the whole endeavor with creating seedless produce for commercial gain is sadly only to our own detriment in the long run.
