Orange Juice

[Dr. Dan]

Just watch the sugar content...even if it is freshly squeezed.  It is good for you, but in moderation.

True - Dr. Dan.
My sister-in-law sent her sugar levels out of control drinking too much OJ when she was carrying her first child.
She thought she was being very healthy.  She was told to only drink it in moderation.

[Americanhero1]

I rarely drink it

Definitely delicious and quite healthy.

[Dr. Dan]

I would recommend..and it might better...a pitcher of filtered water with sliced oranges or sliced lime or sliced lemons sitting inside of it..that way, you get the liquid content adn clensing of water, you get some vitamin C out of it, and a nice flavor with lower calories and sugar content.

Also, eating a whole orange, for example, is healthier than substituting that for juice...a whole fruit, like orange has fiber in it..juice cuts out much of that pulp.

I just eat them.
I buy a box of oranges and eat them.

I would buy, for example, a box of Clementine and down about seven or ten at a time.
Now that's bad because it's loaded with sugar. But, its still way better than the unlisted ingredients in colas.

I knew there was something evil with Tropicana! They're trying to poison us, those mamzas! Just kidding, thanks for the advice.

A bag of spinach or kale will clean you well.
I do that sometimes. But it hurts very much as it scrubs your small intestines. The gas will also make you scream in agony.
It also makes you feel weak. Probably because it takes out some bone mass.

Greens have calcium. Why would they take out bone mass?

watermelon is one of the best ones...

[briann]

Ive completely stopped drinking OJ.  The sugar is just WAY TOO high for me.

Has Chaim had apple juice on the show?  I know he had tomato and pineapple and now orange.

Now you spoiled the surprise! I was waiting for the next show to see if he was going to mention another juice. I was expecting it to be apple if he did.

Now, I remember, it's the caffeine in leaves that dissolve bone.

I drink Orange Juice daily, 1 tall 16oz glass in the morning... 

[q_q_]

i'm not sure that it is good for you actually.

orange juice from oranges, Yes.

If cartoned, then,
FRESHLY SQUEEZED orange juice,  Probably.

But 100% pure orange juice or whatever they want to call it. I don't think it is good for you. 
a)It is usually LOADED with sugar.
b)It is very acidic.

I have heard that although oranges themselves are acidic, they are alkaline forming in the stomach.

Many websites speak of the mportance of having a largely alkaline diet, and in our day and age we eat mostly acidic.. Almost everything is acidic.

People are getting stomach ulcers... and according to one person I spoke to, the tablet he takes is an alkaline tablet.

I can tell you that  when I used to have cranberry juice from the carton, lots of it. I got very bad stabbing pain in the chest.  We have doctors in the family, and the one I called immediately suggested it was acid, and asked me what I had eaten/drunk.

And somebody else I know avoided cranberry juice because it caused him what he called "stomach pain". I think he meant chest pain. When I described what happened to me from it, he didn't look shocked.

I had stabbing pains and shortness of breath. And I am a very healthy person..
My heart beat went a bit funny too, I could hear it.

As soon as I cut it out I haven't had any chest pain since or any funny heart beat rhythms. It's scary..

One doctor I spoke to said that too much acid can cause symptoms similar to a heart attack.  The only thing that made me think it wasn't a heart attack I was having was that I didn't get the sudden pain in the neck or arm like somebody gripping it. That, and the fact that I am healthy!

But you wouldn't know it from the symptoms I described.  I was drinking too much, and it was cartoned Ocean  Spray cranberry juice which is  probably more acidic than  the orange juice.  I do recall getting very slight discomfort inhte chest with the cartoned orange juice.   I used to drink it like water.

I would drink freshly squeezed.

The only reason I have cartoned at all nowadays is because others in the house buy cartoned, and I don't want them killing themselves, so I take advantaget of my good health to drink some of the bad stuff to save them having to!!!!!!

And I keep a bottle of water near me incase I feel I've had too much acid.

[White Israelite]

I drink orange juice often, fresh here in Florida.

When I make fresh squeezed Orange Juice, I also use Tangerines...tangerine & orange juice combined is delicious.

[Ulli]

I buy 100 percent orange juice without any adds.

I like to drink it mixed with mineral water after sport. 

[~Hanna~]

I love Orange Juice......

in britan and probably america,

so-called 100% orange juice  or pure orange juice is not 100% or pure.
it can probably be coca cola, for all they care.
It tends to be very sweet and acidic.

Freshly Squeezed is the only label that means it.  But you could squeeze your own.

That chest hurting feeling is heart burn...and yes it can happen for a number of different reasons...another one is too many green leafy vegetables or too many grapes...and it gives you gas up the yin yang.

As far as orange juice..what's better is the freshly squeezed type rather than the carton type..but the carton type is better than pepsi and all of the other "fruit" drinks out there. 

Cranberry juice is healthy in moderation. It is good for those who have urinary tract infections.  But to simply gobble it up 6 times a day is lunacy just as it is with drinking anything else (except for water and maybe club soda).

[q_q_]

I knew somebody that -only- drank coca cola as a kid, was a bit hyperactive, had yellow teeth, but got by without any pain. But drinking cartons of cranberry juice gave him heartburn, and yellow teeth.

A juicer is perfect for cranberries or tomatoes.  No need for cartons of it.

Not so sure about oranges in a juicer though, 'cos I have heard it presses the skin and you get the taste of the skin in there, and who knows what is in the skin. Oranges have a thick sponge like skin.
