Answers:
Look on the bottle!. It will say how many servings are in the bottle!. Then look at the vitamin content and see how much each serving provides!.You will get an idea of the nutritional value!. When food is juiced the nutrition is not the same as eating the actual fruit because you aren't eating pulp and skin!. Therefore you are not getting the benefits of the fiber fruit has to offer!.You can;t eat too much fruit from a nutritional point of view but I would switch them up so I get the benefits offered by the different ones!.IE Citrus has more C Bananas have more potassium!. If fruit is new to your system you might want to advance a bit slower so your body can adjust and you don't get bathroom issues!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
What is a fruit!? A fruit technically is any food grown on a plant having a seed in it!. Green beans, tomatoes, avocados, etc are all technically fruits!.
The government food gurus say we should have 5+ servings of fruits and vegetables per day!. They do not say what the fruits should be, nor if they should be in the form of juice or the fiberous form they were picked in!.
Don't worry unless your sister is diabetic and must never touch the juices as they are too much sugar for us to eat or drink!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

As enough you can bare!. Without something that has sugar in it!. Sometimes fruit has sugar in it!. And the person doesn't know it!. So think of it!. How much you want to eat first!. Or if you want to drink a fruit juice without sugar in it than that's fine too!. V8 has no sugar in it!. V8 is a tomato juice!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
