"Sometimes yogis go on fruit fasts, where they avoid all foods except fruit and fruit juices, when doing a special sadhana (advanced practice) or have undertaken a vow."
There are a number of high-fruit raw diets that people claim to have healed various diseases from; its supposed to be an excellent detoxification diet and accelerate healing; by eliminating the junk food that is exacerbating disease/inflammation(pain) blocking health and adding in the most potent nutrient rich foods (fruits)...
and fruit fasts are much gentler and way easier than water-only fasts, imo.
