Many people assume that fruit juice is just as healthy as eating fresh fruit. And while this drink is certainly a good way to add more vitamins to your diet, it’s important to remember that fruit juices are very high in sugar, calories, and carbohydrates. Because of this, it’s recommended that those with type 2 diabetes avoid fruit juices at all costs to avoid any negative or detrimental health concerns.
If you juice your own oranges and make your own 100% orange juice, though, you should be able to get away with drinking small amounts here and there. Alternatively, buy a low-sugar orange juice.
