Drinking one glass or more of 100% fruit juice each day is associated with weight gain in children and adults, according to a new analysis of 42 previous studies.
The research, published Tuesday in JAMA Pediatrics, found a positive association between drinking 100% fruit juice and BMI — a calculation that takes into account weight and height — among kids. It also found an association between daily consumption of 100% fruit juice with weight gain among adults.
100% fruit juice was defined as fruit juices with no added sugar.
Nothing wrong with fruits and veggies at all. You need carbs to survive. It’s the juice not having fiber thing that will really load you up with calories and get your pancreas working overtime. It’s the complex carbs in the fruits and veg that your body really wants.
Idk it’s what my endo told me. My diet is primarily whole fruits and veggies, he warned me to eat less fruit because of carbs 🤷♀️
If you live a semi-active lifestyle and aren’t diabetic or pre-diabetic, IANAD, but I wouldn’t be super concerned about eating the odd apple or banana.
