I was raised to dilute it with water to get "more" of it.
Something interesting is that the article doesn't differentiate between "from concentrate" and "fresh juice".
It's "no added sugar" metric is flawed too because that likely doesn't count Aspartame, or other alternative sweeteners, as the Nutrition facts do not count them as sugar either.
no added sugar is true - but it doesn't consider that 100% fruit juice has a metric SHIT TON of natural sugar in it. A glass of 100% orange juice is roughly the equivalent of something like 6-8 oranges.
That's because aspartame has not got the health impacts of sugar. It isn't sugar. So if you added aspartame, you're not adding sugar.
As someone who was also raised to dilute it.
Thanks to shrinkflation they are already diluting it. It tastes water thin before you water it down, and it's still all sugar water.
juiced like, 80 lilikoi last week. enough for two tall lints of pure fresh lilikoi juice for me and special lady friend.
Shit went down better than the best oj you've never had. I have no idea what those two glasses of juice would cost retail, but we saved lilikoi for a week to do that.
Juices require a ton of fruit. lemmings can have some juice. as a treat.
"Sugary drinks are bad for you?"
This is why I treat myself to the occasional coke zero and mostly just drink water. Is it boring? I guess so. But I've lost 100 pounds in the past two years and I'd really like to stay this way.
Too many negligent parents, especially in terms of health. Although American health science is pretty much profit lead dog shit

Grapefruit juice is an exception to this
Make sure to check with your doctor if you’re on any meds! Grapefruit juice can cause you to absorb more of your medication and can cause overdoses.

This just in; drinking 30 percent sugar in moments every day causes weight gain.
I read the whole article and all it says is that the weight gain is due to the lack of fibre in juice, which leads to not feeling satiated
So the weight gain is due to eating other things on top of the juice, no?
One glas of OJ is like the juice of 10 oranges. You simply wouldn't be able to eat that many because of all the bulk (fibre) that comes with it. But as juice, you can down them in seconds, giving you more sugar than a soda, which will lead to bloodsugar spikes, which will lead to Type 2 diabetis. So eat as much fruit as you like, it's super healthy, but don't drink fruit juice.

We give our kids those horizon uht whole milk drinks like everyday. It's milk which is basically sugar, fat, protein, and a few other things. Is this going to cause a similar issue? We also have the siggi yogurt...
Calories in calories out
It's not rocket science if you put in extra fuel the body will eventually turn that extra fuel into fat.

When I was a kid my mom thought she was teaching me healthy eating habits by doing things like encouraging me to drink lots of fruit juice.
The same study also came to the breakthrough realization that water is wet
