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.

    a drink being nutritious is not the same as being healthy

    100% juice is all natural stuff that you body is used to procesing for milions of years, but yeah you’re gonna get fat if you chug it like there no tomorrow

    soda is some random shit thrown together, articifial sweetners, coloring etc.
