Fruit Juice Isn’t That Different From Sugary Soft Drinks

Many people believe that fruit juices are healthy, as they come from fruit.

Though fresh fruit juice may provide some of the antioxidants found in fruit, it contains just as much sugar as sugary soft drinks like Coca-Cola (14Trusted Source).

As juice offers no chewing resistance and negligible amounts of fiber, it’s very easy to consume a lot of sugar.

A single cup (240 ml) of orange juice contains just as much sugar as 2 whole oranges (15, 16).

If you’re trying to avoid sugar for health reasons, you should avoid fruit juice as well. While fruit juice is healthier than soft drinks, its antioxidant content doesn’t make up for the large amounts of sugar.

🌻How often you feel bloated? Here are the things that can battle that😎
-
🥤Water: It may seem counterintiutive, but when it comes to water, drink, drink, and drink some more. -
🍈Melons: Melons, citrus, and other potassium-rich fruits will help reduce water retention because they are high in the mineral potassium that balances sodium levels.
-
🍌Banana. Potassium regulates sodium in the body and therefore may reduce water retention. A few foods high in potassium include banana, avocados, pistachios, spinach and kale
-
🥜Nuts and whole grains: Tasty sources of vitamin B6, a nutrient associated with PMS relief, whole grain products and nuts are a good nosh when you’re feeling bloated. Make sure they have no added salt.
-
🥗Watercress Watercress, an often overlooked leafy green, is a natural diuretic that is also high in potassium. The flavonoids in vegetables (and fruit) can alleviate water retention (Other bloat-fighting foods include other leafy greens, celery, tomatoes, carrots, onions, and peppers).
-
🥠Herbs: Several herbs are natural diuretics and believed to help reduce water retention. Celery seed (do not take if you are pregnant), evening primrose oil, and dandelion root are just a few bloat-fighting options.
-
🍣Salmon: Loaded with omega-3s, salmon is a super food that is not only food for the heart, brain, and joints, it can also fend off PMS.
-
🍶Greek Yogurt: Eating too many rich treats will cause tummy bloat. If you’ve overindulged and are feeling the effects, treat your stomach to a cup of plain, low-fat greek yogurt that contains active cultures. The active cultures aid in digestion and increase the good bacteria in the gut, the protein in greek yogurt will keep you feeling full.
