I am sorry, that it took so long to answer your question, because i had to travel to Germany for emergency reasons.

Our server in Germany had been broken and we moved our fruitarian homepage to Switzerland.

It's great that our pages are online again.

Check that..may be it helps you a bit further..

Fruitarian is the definition of a pure fruit eater but there also exist a lot of confusing wrong interpretations. Most of the wrong definitions got confused with herbivore-, vegetarian- and raw vegan- definitions, because there are always people who try to confuse.. find it out yourself..
