Extracting the juice from fruits releases their natural sugars, categorizing fruit juice as a source of "free sugar."
Juicing can diminish fruit's nutritional content as it exposes nutrients to light and air, potentially causing loss of sensitive nutrients.
Juicing removes insoluble fiber from fruit, concentrating sugars and calories, leading to quicker absorption. It increases blood sugar and calorie intake.
Fructose in fruit may pose health risks when consumed excessively in a liquid form. It potentially leads to obesity, diabetes, and liver fat accumulation.
Fruit juice's natural sugars and acids can harm teeth by softening and eroding protective enamel. It increases the risk of dental decay.
