Stopped drinking fruit juice years ago - it is a blast of sugar to the system.
At least with whole fruit, you get fiber which slows down the sugar.
Coming from a family of diabetics, none of us need that sugar blast - not sure anyone does.

Sugars are carbohydrates, and your body needs carbs and sugars. Your brain requires around 130 grams of glucose every day to ensure it operates smoothly. Energy from carbs is essential to your body’s function.
It is recommended that you get less than 150 calories a day from added sugars, which is about 36 grams of sugar. To put it in perspective, a 12 oz. of cola has around 40 grams of sugar. Getting your daily sugars from whole foods like fruits and vegetables provides you with more nutrients than a can of soda. So, choose your sugars wisely.

Remove all carbs from our diet, just like any human without agriculture did and still does and all modern “chronic” diseases like diabete, alzheimer, hypertension, heart disease will disappear. The carnivore movement is the living proof of that simple fact.
