holistic recognition. New<br />

categories of awards this year<br />

include Best Remisier and Best<br />

there are some changes in other<br />

Juice contains sugar<br />

Yes, but you can enjoy it as a healthy and guiltless part of<br />

your diet – if you know how to separate the good choices<br />

from the not-so-good. After all, 100-percent fruit juice can<br />

count toward your daily recommended amount of fruit,<br />

according to the 2015 Dietary Guidelines for Americans.<br />

Men and women ages 19 to 30 should consume 2 cups of<br />

fruit per day, while women 31 and older should eat 1 1/2 cups<br />

of fruit per day. If you drink a cup of 100-percent fruit juice,<br />

then, it counts as one cup of fruit for the day.<br />

The Best and<br />

Worst Juices<br />

for Your Health<br />

From carton to homemade to cold-pressed, here's how to<br />

choose your juice wisely.<br />

Not all juices are created equal.<br />

Here take on four popular<br />

varieties:<br />

Store-Bought Juice<br />

On the upside, cartons or bottles<br />

of 100-percent fruit juice contain<br />

more than the natural sugar<br />

fructose. For example, 1 cup of<br />

100-percent orange juice is an<br />

excellent source of vitamin C and<br />

a good source of potassium, folate<br />

and thiamine. You can even find OJ<br />

fortified with calcium and vitamin<br />

D, both of which are nutrients of<br />

concern for Americans. Plus,<br />

100-percent orange juice naturally<br />

contains the phytonutrient<br />

hesperidin, which emerging<br />

research suggests may help<br />

maintain a healthy blood pressure<br />

and blood vessel function.<br />

On the downside, it's very possible<br />

to outweigh the health benefits of<br />

100-percent fruit juice with<br />

unhealthy portions. My college<br />

boyfriend is a case in point: He used<br />

to guzzle a half-gallon of juice in<br />

one sitting, consuming about 880<br />

calories and 168 grams sugar<br />

without a second thought. That’s an<br />

extreme case of overconsumption,<br />

and can result in weight gain if done<br />

over a long period of time. Even<br />

drinking an oversized 16- or 24-<br />

fluid ounces (or 2 to 3 cups) of<br />

100-percent juice at breakfast can<br />

result in taking in too many<br />

calories if it becomes a habit.<br />

A second way store-bought juice<br />

can be a bad choice is when the<br />

juice contains added sugar. Some<br />

food manufacturers add sugar to<br />

balance the tart flavor of some<br />

juices. Mixed juice drink blends<br />

tend to have added sugar or are<br />

made from concentrate. They<br />

either don’t provide many<br />

nutrients or have more sugar than<br />

necessary. This is why you always<br />

want to look for 100-percent juice<br />

on the label.<br />

Juice Bars<br />

Most of the same logic that you<br />

can apply to homemade juices<br />

apply to juice bars. While slurping<br />

them can help you create a diet<br />

high in fruits and vegetables, which<br />

has been shown to help lower the<br />

risk of cancer and heart disease, if<br />

you’re ordering a 24-fluid ounce<br />

juice, you’re taking in around 450<br />

calories. A small 8- or 12-fluid<br />

ounce juice is the way to go. Plus,<br />

keep an eye on the cleanliness of<br />

the juice shop to make sure<br />

they’re cleaning and sanitizing<br />

their juicing equipment regularly.<br />

Homemade Juices<br />

Homemade juices – which, as long<br />

as you're not adding you're own<br />

sugar, honey or other sweetener –<br />

give you the same benefits of<br />

100-percent store-bought juice.<br />

What's more, the fruits and<br />

vegetables in them can give you<br />

lots of vitamin C and some B<br />

vitamins, but since both are easily<br />

destroyed by slicing, cooking and<br />

juicing, it's best to prepare your<br />

juice right before drinking it.<br />

Still, even DIY juices come with<br />

precautions – namely, in terms of<br />

calorie and sugar content, not to<br />

mention cost, since it takes a ton<br />

of fruit to get a significant<br />

amount of juice. While all that<br />

fruit racks up good-for-you<br />

nutrients, again, moderation<br />

matters. Plus, you need to keep<br />

up with cleaning your juicer or it<br />

could harbor pathogenic<br />

microorganisms that can<br />

potentially make you sick.<br />

Cold-Pressed Juices<br />

Juices use pressure, instead of<br />

heat, to destroy potentially<br />

harmful microorganisms so they<br />

are safe to drink. They have a<br />

short shelf life and, at least to me,<br />

taste fresher than traditionally<br />

packaged juices. Read the<br />

ingredients and the label to make<br />

sure you’re drinking no more<br />

than 150 calories per serving.<br />

Some cold-pressed juices add<br />

high-calorie ingredients like<br />

coconut or avocado, which are<br />

healthy foods, but can rack up the<br />

calories in a quick thirstquencher.<br />

With both fresh and<br />

cold-pressed juice, using a combo<br />

of fruits, vegetables and herbs<br />

helps keep calories down. This<br />

also allows you to take in an even<br />

greater variety of good-for-you<br />

nutrients.<br />

No matter which type or types<br />

of juice you choose to drink,<br />

portion control and moderation<br />

are critical; making yourself crazy<br />

and fearful of food is not healthy.<br />

If you love juice, go ahead and<br />

pour yourself a (8- or 12-ounce)<br />

glass.<br />
