A study published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association shows fruit juice increases the risk of developing the cancer when comparing people drinking the most versus the least amount of fruit juice.

Researchers believe it’s because fruit juices are low in fiber and often have added sugar.

My understanding has always been, that juice doesn’t have added sugar, but anything called “Drink” does.

btw - I grew up on juice, that’s pretty much all we drank at home as kids. (that was back when you didn’t talk about cancer)

It's full of sugar even if it's not added. It's not the fiber.
