Juice does contain calories, and they need to be counted. It should be considered as a serving of fruit.

One hundred percent juice is derived straight from the fruit, cannot have any sweeteners and has to meet government standards. Juice drinks and juice cocktails have less than 100 percent juice, added water and, a lot of times, sweetener.

I have seen consumer focus groups where people are quite confused when shown a very popular drink, and they think it's 100 percent juice.

Where wise actions are the fruit of life, wise discourse is the pollination.

You can count calories all day and night, But Calories DON'T Count.

Buying fruit or vegetables that are in season is cheaper, as is buying loose produce. Frozen peas contain more vitamin C than some fresh vegetables. Tinned fruit in natural juice and vegetables, concentrated fruit juice and dried fruit contribute to your five daily portions, too. And they last longer.
