    Some people want a flavored drink. If it’s between fruit juice and soda though, juice is healthier and imo tastes better as well. Blackberry Izze is the best.

      Juice is healthier, but not by a huge margin, tbh.

      You can mix the fruit juice with water, that way you have flavored water without a ton of sugar.

      While they do offer other nutrients (not a lot, mind you, as we’re throwing away most of them), fruit juices have almost as much sugar as sodas. We were never meant to consume fruit like this - we’re literally extracting the worst part of them.

        Yeah I usually mix mine with carbonated water, they are too sweet anyway. Once mixed, they are likely less than 1/4th of the sugar of a coca cola and I only have 1 a day if I even have one. I think at that point the health impact is negligible.
