> And there is NO added sugar

This is NO good argument - even without added sugar, orange juice is on par with coke (about 10 gram sugar/100 ml).

I will put people who say this in the same category. Anyone who thinks added sugar is the same as fruit sugar...well...

Fruit juice contains high amounts of sugar. There's not much difference between the sugars in fruit juice and the sugars in cola. Fruit juice is not a healthy drink. This myth causes harm. Parents give their children fruit juice because they think it's healthy, and this causes toot decay.

> Like fizzy drinks, fruit juice and squash can be high in sugar, which can cause tooth decay. Because sugary drinks can be high in energy (calories), having these drinks too often can also lead to weight gain and obesity.

> Unsweetened 100% fruit juice, vegetable juice and smoothies can only ever count as a maximum of 1 portion of your recommended 5 daily portions of fruit and vegetables.

> For example, if you have 2 glasses of fruit juice and a smoothie in 1 day, that still only counts as 1 portion.

> That's because fruit juice and smoothies don't contain the fibre found in whole fruits and vegetables. Have other types of fruit and vegetables for the other 4 (or more) portions.

> Fruit juice and smoothies also contains sugar that can damage teeth. It's best to drink them with a meal because this can help protect your teeth.

Coke uses high fructose corn syrup in the US. The sugar in orange juice is largely fructose. The name is the same because it’s the same thing.

Fruit sugar is fructose the exact same chemical as comprises about half of sucrose and exactly half of high fructose corn syrup.

Fruit sugar is just sugar.

Dietary sugar—sugar that’s bound up along with fiber in its natural setting like fruits & vegetables—is a very different thing from non-dietary sugar. The former is fine; the latter is a chronic hepatotoxin that leads to metabolic disease, including lethargy, irritability, fat gain (sp. interstitial), and diabetes.
