    I usually mix (apple/grape) juice with carbonated water and drink one glass of orange juice occasionally. Its not like I’m drinking 2l a day.

      I’m only asking because people seem to have the wrong idea that 100% fruit juice is 100% healthy.

      And I’ve seen people replace water with fruit juice.

        Some people want a flavored drink. If it’s between fruit juice and soda though, juice is healthier and imo tastes better as well. Blackberry Izze is the best.

          You can mix the fruit juice with water, that way you have flavored water without a ton of sugar.

          While they do offer other nutrients (not a lot, mind you, as we’re throwing away most of them), fruit juices have almost as much sugar as sodas. We were never meant to consume fruit like this - we’re literally extracting the worst part of them.

            Yeah I usually mix mine with carbonated water, they are too sweet anyway. Once mixed, they are likely less than 1/4th of the sugar of a coca cola and I only have 1 a day if I even have one. I think at that point the health impact is negligible.
