Can drinking too much apple juice be bad for you?
Just wondering, because ever since I gave up carbonated drinks, I've been funneling the A-juice lately.

Anyone know?

1. Uh, yeah.
Sugar. Calories. I drink water with a squeeze of lemon juice. It quenches the thirst w/out all the nonsense.

2. Yeah, ditto what crim son said: apple juice is loaded with sugar and calories
water with lemon or lime slices is a great way to go. :thumbsup:

4. Depends on what's in it.
High fructose corn syrup and other sugars are not your friends.

5. Well, I guess not, if you're ok with killing HUNDREDS of apples.
Apple killer.

6. It's really not that much different from carbonated drinks. It's pretty much just sugar water.
I love the hell out of it, really I do. No shit: my first word as a child was "Appajoos." But it's pretty much nutritionally worthless.

7. Loads and loads and loads of sugar.
Or worse, loads and loads of high fructose corn syrup.

Try water. That's what people drank before they had juicers. :P
