When buying fruit juice, it shows ';No Sugar Added'; or ';No Added Sugar';, which one is true? Does it means?

The ';no sugar added'; and ';no added sugar'; both mean there is no table sugar added to your juice. However, there may still be other forms of sugar such as corn syrup, dextrose, fructose, glucose, maltose or sucrose.

As others have pointed out - they mean the same. But it still contains fruit sugars.





Manufactures are allowed to add things like grape juice (a lot of sugar) or apple juice (a lot of sugar) to a product but still say ';no added sugar'; because that refers only to refined white or brown sugar - not juices.





Fruit juice is only marginally better than soda. True, you get a few vitamins in it - but any benefit is quickly surpassed by the shear number of sugar grams you are consuming. You are better off to eat the whole fruit.When buying fruit juice, it shows ';No Sugar Added'; or ';No Added Sugar';, which one is true? Does it means?
The only juice that has no added sugar is the one that you make from fresh bought fruit. When you see ';No Added Sugar'; look for the names of artificial sweeteners.


Q: How can the juice be sweeter than the fruit itself? Think about it and you'll see that ';there's more than one way to skin a cat';
Indeed it means the same. Meaning that they didn't added industrial made sugars. So the fruit juice only contains that sort of sugar that is created in the fruit before the juice was made. :))
they mean the same


but i would still recommend not to drink it because it is not natural and they can include high fructose corn syrup (which is wayy worse then sugar) i mean it's like a trick almost
It means the same thing no extra sugar added but fruit is a natural sweetener because of its' own sugat
they mean the same thing, that there is no extra added sugar ......but it wil still contain natural fruit sugars
