Dead Steve Jobs tried to KILL Ashton Kutcher from beyond the grave
Hollywood heartthrob Ashton Kutcher was "terrified" and spent time in hospital after trying too hard to achieve authenticity in his depiction of the late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs in a new film. The actor - who stars as Jobs in the new movie jOBS - used method acting to get inside the head of the great entrepreneur who built …

You eat rat poison for two days and not get sick
I'm not recommending it but you could probably sprinkle D-Con on your Wheaties for two days and not end up in the hospital. Unless he's seriously diabetic there is no way an all fruit diet, or an all bacon grease diet for that matter, could harm him. The pinhead who did Supersize Me claimed that an all MacDonalds diet caused his liver to shutdown after a month. Bad diets take decades to harm you, no normal food can harm you in a few days or even in a few months. An extreme diet can cause a nutritional deficiency given enough time, a no fruit diet would cause scurvy and an all fruit diet would cause a protein deficiency, but those take many months.
Re: You eat rat poison for two days and not get sick
Actually, I know several people who do, indeed, eat "rat poison" every day. Anybody with a metal heart valve (as opposed to a pig valve) will be taking Cumidin or Warfarin every day to keep their tendency to clot down.

He wasn't seriously diabetic before filming, but he is now
Any doctor's here? WTF are "pancreas levels".
My understanding is that it produces a load of different hormones and enzymes (not just Insulin and Glucagon which control blood sugar levels). As it's so involved with digestion it stands to reason that it produces different quantities of enzymes as appropriate to the stomach contents.
I can suggest several other explanations:
whatever Mr Kutcher was suffering from was psychosomatic (brain thinks "Jobs ate loads of fruit and died of Pancreatic cancer - I just ate loads of fruit - EEK")
There is a serious un-diagnosed pre-existing condition which has been exacerbated by the changed diet
He consumed some fruit which had gone bad or was not properly washed
He consumed some variety of fruit not part of his normal diet and reacted badly to it, allergy maybe.
He consumed an unfamiliar item that in its uncooked state is toxic. I don't know of any fruit with this problem but uncooked cassava has lethal levels of cyanide, uncooked red kidney beans (and some other varieties of bean) have lethal levels of Ricin.
"Doubled over in pain" perhaps his changed diet had resulted in excess bowel gas production which can have this effect. Did he feel better after a massive fart?
Into which end of his digestive system was said fruit diet inserted. We've all at some time looked at the price of Apple hardware and said "Steve Jobs can stick Apple up his arse", perhaps Mr Kircher misunderstood... Advice: next time use a pine-apple.
