Fruit juice is the essence of fruit and rich in nutrition, so it is good to drink only fruit juice and not eat fruit.

Rumors:

Drinking juice and eating fruit must not be equated!

As a gift from nature, fruit is rich in variety, delicious taste and high nutritional value, and is rich in vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber and phytochemicals.

With the increasing diversification of modern lifestyles, many people regard juice as an "upgraded" version of fruit, thinking that juice not only tastes good, but even thinks that drinking juice and eating fruit are the same thing.

But in fact, compared with fruit, fruit juice will lose a lot of dietary fiber!

The nutritional composition of fruit juice is different from that of fruit.

When girls go shopping, they often hold a cup of freshly squeezed juice. When children don't like fruit, a cup of freshly squeezed juice seems to solve the problem of not eating fruit.

Let's first equate the daily purchased juice with the freshly squeezed juice. Why does the juice taste so good? The taste is delicate, and most of the freshly squeezed juice has been removed from the pomace, which is refreshing and delicious.

But it is the act of removing pomace that makes the juice taste good but loses a lot of dietary fiber. Dietary fiber is a good laxative, and the fruit that loses most of the dietary fiber loses a big advantage of the nutritional value of the fruit.

Secondly, many fruits are actually sour, such as mangoes. If you want a good taste, you must add sugar. The essence of sugar is carbohydrate, and its main function is to provide energy for human body. Excess fat is usually stored.

Adding sugar to fruit juice undoubtedly increases the intake of exogenous sugar and makes our obesity further.

Fruit juice oxidizes more vitamins than fruit.

Compared with eating the whole fruit directly, fruit juice undoubtedly needs to break the fruit, thus releasing more liquid.

In the process of crushing fruit cells, it is inevitable to contact with oxygen in the air, and many vitamins rich in fruits are very delicate, most afraid of the sudden silence of the air, oh no, most afraid of the sudden arrival of oxygen.

Therefore, fruit juice often loses its original advantages and rich vitamins because of the production process.

Juice drinks can't be compared with fruits.

Many children's parents know not to choose carbonated drinks when choosing drinks, but they always feel that juice drinks seem better. With the word "fruit", there will be some nutrition.

Juice drinks are drinks after all, and most of them contain more than 10% juice, which can be seen from the ingredient list.

The higher the ranking in the ingredient list, the higher the content, and the top two fruit juice drinks are generally water and sugar. Therefore, fruit juice drinks can not replace fruits, nor can they be used as ordinary drinks, otherwise they will gain weight appropriately (or boiled water is the best).

Juice is not inedible

As a kind of enjoyment of taste buds, fruit juice can't replace fruit, but don't abandon it. After all, it is a pleasure to adjust the taste buds once in a while.

For many patients who can't eat normally and need to eat liquid food, juice is an excellent choice at this stage.

Fruit juice can also be mixed with several fruits and eaten at the same time, which increases the richness of nutrition, so it is entirely possible to be used as a dietary adjustment occasionally.
