I think that even some fruits themselves can be harmful. Apples or tomatoes have a skin that absorbs all sort of things from the outside, so these especially are full of poisons if not organic. But even organic fruits can contain lots of dubious substances.
Used to live mostly on fruits for some extended time when living/travelling in the tropics, and after the "honeymoon period" when one feels great, I became hyper, restless, ungrounded and unfocused, but, it's true had plenty a lot energy, but could not use it in the right way.
But nowadays as a omnivore, fruits are a great way for me to get energy. They need to be very ripe, unripe fruit do more harm than good. I live in Germany, and in winter I like to eat dried, (and sun ripened) fruits from the tropics (mangoes, pineapple etc) or from colder climates.
