In order for Kutcher to look like the skinny and lanky Jobs, he had to shed some weight and do it fast. Jobs had been known to practice odd eating habits, which influenced Kutcher&#8217;s diet. There was a time when Jobs gave up meat and only ate fruit, and that&#8217;s how Kutcher found <strong><a title=\"fruitarian diet\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diets\/fruitarian-diet\/\">the Fruitarian Diet<\/a><\/strong> .<\/p>\n<p>For a couple of months, Ashton ate nothing but fruit to lose weight. Then, right before filming, it is reported that he was hospitalized because of serious health issues. The actor said, &#8220;I was like doubled over in pain, and my pancreas levels were completely out of whack, which was completely terrifying considering everything.&#8221; Kutcher concluded that his hospitalization was due to his strict fruit diet.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Our resident dietitian, <strong><a title=\"Mary Hartley\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/authors\/mary\/\">Mary Hartley, RD<\/a><\/strong>, mentions the dangers of the Fruitarian Diet, saying, &#8220;Devotees say it promotes good health, vitality and inner happiness, but it actually produces deficiencies of protein, essential fatty acid, iron, calcium, zinc, vitamin D, and most of the B vitamins, especially vitamin B-12.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t the first time Ashton has tried a crazy fad diet. In the summer of 2026, <strong><a title=\"ashton kutcher and master cleanse\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/07\/ashton-and-demi-do-the-master-cleanse-for-their-health\/\">Ashton started the Master Cleanse<\/a><\/strong> with his then wife, Demi Moore, and even tweeted about it.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p>9 hrs into the master cleanse.
