"Carbs and calories for your body to use..."
Right, and if you're very very active, or someone training like Michael Phelps, go ahead and eat as much fruit and even indulge in juice as often as you like.
OTOH, if you wake up and drive your subaru to the cubicle and sit there for 8 hours and then drive ...etc. etc....
MAYBE eating for energy isn't a smart philosophy.
Just a thought.0 -

You know that the vast majority of your burned calories come from just living, right?stevencloser wrote: »
No to all of those. Sugar isn't bad, or your fruit would be bad too. It has nutritional value, carbs and calories for energy for your body to use, and it won't make you fat unless you're at a calorie surplus.
Sugar IN fruit is fine; which is what I said. Refined Sugar has no nutritional value AT ALL.
Extracting fruit juice is not a good idea as you are mainly concentrating sugars. Humans do not NEED added sugars.
Just out of interest are you based in USA?
The sugar IN fruit also doesn't have any nutritional value besides calories. The fruit does. The sugar is just sugar. So unless you're regularly eating spoons of pure white sugar, this isn't a comparison you can make.0
