What is the difference between fruit and juice?The test results show ...

Drink 100%pure fruit juice every day, do you need to eat fruit? For many friends who like to be lazy, the fruit juice tastes good and does not need to be treated. It is the best fruit alternative. However, some experts said that fruit juice cannot replace fruit. So, where is the difference between fruits and juice? Recently, the Shanghai Consumer Protection Commission compared various fruits and corresponding fruit juice. The Shanghai Consumer Protection Commission selected fresh pineapple, oranges, kiwi, grapes, apples, and corresponding fruit juice to Shanghai Yuanyuan Food Quality Inspection Co., Ltd. (Shanghai Nutrition Food Quality Supervision and Inspection Station), detecting some major nutritional ingredients I found different places.

Vitamin C, dietary fiber, fruit juice is lower than fruit content

From the test results, the juice is indeed lower than the vitamin C content of the fruit. Because vitamin C is exposed to air, sunlight, and high temperature, it is easy to oxidize, and the juice is processed and stored, so that vitamin C is more likely to be oxidized, so eating fruits directly can take more vitamin C.

As for the dietary fiber in the juice, there are fewer. Because the vast majority of fruit juice filter out the fruits residue after the processing process, even if there are some flesh, the amount of addition is very low.

The amount of sugar containing fruits and similar fruit juice is not much different.

However, unexpectedly, in terms of the unit value, considering the differences between the origin and processing process between raw materials, the sugar content between fresh fruits and similar pure fruit juice is not much different.

But this does not mean that drinking juice is not easy to get fat. Because a common kiwi is 60-100g, an apple is 100-250g, and an orange is 100-200g. "Chinese Resident Dietary Guide (2022)" is recommended to consume 200-350g of fresh fruits per day, but in fact, it is difficult for ordinary people to eat so much. But a bottle of juice on the market is generally around 300ml, and it is not much pressured to drink a bottle at a time. Therefore, drinking juice is likely to take more sugar. The Shanghai Consumer Protection Commission reminded that it cannot be replaced with fresh fruits for a long time. And for children, replacing fruits instead of fruit can easily make teeth lack exercise, facial skin muscle strength weakens, and the regulation function of the eyeball weakens. However, when you go out, you need to carry it convenient or if the fruit is insufficient, you can occasionally supplement it with an appropriate amount of juice.
