Some children's juice drinks have more sugar than Coke

<< Campaign group says 57 out of 203 supermarket drinks tested had as much sugar as Coca-Cola or more. >>

Even fresh orange juice contains more sugar than you think. This comes to no surprise to me. Sodium (salt) is another problem altogether.

Children like sugar.  Parents like their children.  It makes sense that products will use more sugar.

The only problem I see here that juices are artificially sweetened. If something is labeled - Juice it should be just JUICE without any sweeteners. If not it is not juice...

Most fruit juices aren't really good for you as they are essentially just sugar water. Just eat the fruit.


Nope. It's full of natural sugars and by juicing it you get rid of all the other good stuff; fibre etc.

Have these drinks been tested for fluoride vs. coke? Do they have more fluoride or less?

Probably less but I don't know of any where its been tested.

Also the foods that say less fat also contains large quantities of sugar

That's why I get the juices that are watered down to have 50% the sugar that the normal juice has.  Or I water it down myself.  Half the shit out there is too sweet anyway.

sugar is not the main problem with coke

Then please enlighten us. As far as health concerns I think it is.

The effect of sugar on the body is the same as alcohol without the buzz. It's straight up poison kids!

hey guys i made this new breaking discovery
there's a little black and white box on every food product labelled "nutrition facts"
i wonder what it means?

I've actually been looking into this for a while now. There are TONS of things that have an equal amount of sugar or more than coke (yoghurt with taste, juice as you say, pretty much all tasty "fruit" drinks are just pumped up with sugar - lots of food has half the amount or more, this is in Sweden so I can only imagine how bad it is in the states.
Next time you go shopping check the amount of sugar on the index of the drinks/food you buy - you will be surprised. There are also a lot of synthetic sweeteners (for example Aspartame in sausage (taking this as an example).

John Oliver did a nice piece recently explaining how difficult it is to grasp what a gram of sugar really "means." (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MepXBJjsNxs) Even growing up with the notoriously bad food of the MidWest, though, I've never eaten a circus peanut... We had those weird, colored church mints that melt, instead.

School "milk," packaged meats, and deli meats also tend to contain large amounts of sugar. I don't even think there're any pre-made red sauces on the market anymore which don't taste like chunky ketchup. :D It does take a while to reorient your palate to take in non-candied foods regularly, though, and honestly, I haven't lost a single pound cutting almost all sugar out of my diet for the past three years, though my blood sugar's become normal and pressure's medium-low where it was high. I'm losing lots of weight, now, though, but that's just from the most physically intense factory job I've ever held.

damn no wonder we have serious diabetes type 2 going on.

I'm pretty sure eating at a caloric deficit will result in more weight loss than reducing your sugar intake. The guy in the video does make some points; some consumers don't fully grasp how much sugar is actually in their food.


Information about nutrition is easily accessible. Being ignorant isn't an excuse.

If what you're eating has black & white boxes on it you're probably being modified into a carbohydrate consuming slave by hostile aliens.

This guy speaks the truth. WAKE UP SHEEPLE

I only eat organic fair-trade GMO-free lentils hand-picked by anarchist hippies. I'm safe from the government brainwashing me by putting nanobots in my food!

We all know that works for like a week before you're eating something "convenient". The trick is convincing the nano-bots to give you super-powers instead of making you into a slave troll like creature.  

Yeah I also wrap my fedora with tinfoil (purchased with bitcoin) to protect against mind control waves. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_MKUltra

1984 is happening, wake up sheeple

First it starts with sugar, then fluoride then the doctors put you on pharmaceuticals and next thing you know you're a mind control sex slave.

Say no to sugar kids!

Not easy to say no to it when it's in everything.
Here is a Swedish bottle of remoulade-sauce

Socker = sugar, any swedish person will confirm this.
11 gram per 100 ml (which is one gram less than coke I believe). It's in EVERYTHING...

I bet the ilerminati is behind this

The word you are looking for is Illuminati, which is a diversion from who really rule the world. But yeah, simply put the elite of the world is the reason behind this.

Yeah, thanks, that's exactly what I meant. Can you tell me more about them?

You have to do your own diggning. But short version is that the world is ruled by pure evil, power hungry bastards who use the normal people as chess players. 9-5 working cook food spend time with family sleep repeat, a "this is the way it works, lets go on". Once you burst out of the bubble you have opened a pandoras ask filled with very very much information of the evil going on in the world.

Take a look at the whistleblowers for example, free speach is the number 1 constitution right but they end up in solitary confinement for the rest of their lives or have to flee to another country - does that sound right if you look at it?
