Sugar and Potassium: You may be a person with a very sensative parasympathetic nervous system(pns) both sugar and potassium (k+) are potent stimulators of your pns and fruit is filled with sugar and k+. When your pns is activated your GI system will become more active and you may experience cramps. What to do? Either don't eat fruit or eat it only with foods that will keep your blood sugar more stable like cheese.
