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.
Check the Canadian guide, they finally did it without asking for input from the various food lobbies…
Interesting!
Surprisingly similar to the US one, just without the Milk Lobby influence. “Make water your drink of choice” would improve so many people’s lives.
Digging into the US guidelines it says that “93% of Americans are not getting enough dairy.” #ThatIsALie
US dairy lobby is bonkers. Not as bonkers as the corn people, but close.
Yep, the dairy lobby is still pissed about it, it’s been five years now and they still say that Health Canada is biased against them… After working with them to create the guide for decades? 🤔
