In my college nutrition classes we were educated that juice can be so high in sugar and high in calories. I was surprised the first time I saw a glass of orange juice in its recommended serving size. I think at that time I was stuck in black-and-white thinking... that food was good or bad. So juice equaled bad for me for quite some time and I just … [Read more...]
