Anything Post

I was so pleasantly surprised when I read the label of a Naked Juice and saw all the healthy ingredients. The back of the bottle looks something similar to this: 10 apples, 57 blueberries, 48 mg of parsley, 5 bananas. I tried it because a ton of my friends had tried it and said it was super healthy and I should definitely try it. While I want to appreciate Naked Juices great efforts to make a delicious drink filled to the max with fruits and what not, I can't help but feel that this all can be to good to be true. According to an article written by Kevin Geary Naked Juice's hit beverage "Green Machine" has as much sugar as Mountain Dew. In their defense all the juice drinks sugar comes from real fruits. When eating a real piece of fruit your body takes care of the sugar with no problem, but when the fruit is in this form of a drink most of the fiber disappears so your body doesn't regulate these sugars like it should. Instead they just stay in your body. Most health experts say you should just eat an actual piece of fruit instead. If you sit down and think about it, it makes no sense to drink a drink containing similar to 3, 5, 10 apples, oranges, kiwis whatever fruit. You wouldn't sit down and eat that much fruit in one sitting. Another interesting fact, Naked Juice is made by Pepsi. Pepsi does not have a fruityard. So the fruit inside is mostly processed goods with GMO's and are synthetic. So this obviously has a significant effect on the nutritional value. Reading in between the lines of the label, we can see nutritionally Naked Juice and Mountain Dew, aren't all that different.
