theyre full of crap...u actually watch those garbage current affairs programs?? JUNK!!!

theyre only as bad for you as regular fruit juice. it has natural fruit sugars in it like fructose and sucrose, which are actually good for you. although it may have the same amount of sugar in it as coke and stuff, coke is refined sugar, which is really bad for your system as its full of chemicals.

juice bars use fresh fruit, skim milk and low fat yoghurt. sometimes they use prepackaged juice, but sometimes juicing fruit individually just isnt economical. are these things unhealthy? no. today tonight is crap. have u ever seen the show frontline? (ripping of CA progs? well today tonight is frontline in real life)

Juice is good in that the sugars in it are natural sugars, but keep in mind they are still sugars nonetheless and will turn to fat if you don't burn them off. What most people forget is the amount of fruit that needs to be juiced to get a drink, it is insane, and you need to take it into account (ie, 3 oranges vs one glass of juice)

no its worse

sunrise doesnt try to do that tho, they know they have worthless stories and run them shamelessly

tonday tonight however think they have a right to fill the public in on the juicy details behind the scenes, with a bit of creative filling in the blanks by them to make the story newsworthy. people think theyre getting the real deal when in fact its complete and utter garbage that reels people in hook line and sinker. just like you were :p

Was that aimed at me? I actually didn't see any of the "news" stories on it, all I know is what I've observed from making my own juice.

You need to go and live in France Angelduck! Apparently French women don't get fat - they can eat cream buns all day, McDonalds - supersize everything and even drink boost juices until their heads are swimming in it, and na ... no fat - all because they live in France! I think that is what I read anyway - I don't think I misread anything in that article! *lol*

omg thats so wrong


the reason french women dont get fat is that they dont have processed foods like maccas or anything...i have a friend on exchange in france atm and they dont even have a maccas in their city and its a huge city
they dont eat large portions, they have a lot of different tastes and just savour small morsels of it. THATS why they dont get fat, not just cos they live in france

jesus christ some people are daft!
