About This Food

Juice, widely consumed around the world, is a beverage made from the extraction or pressing of the natural liquid contained in fruit or vegetables. The calories in juice is approximately 128.0. It provides carbohydrates for energy and contains Vitamin C, an important antioxidant. Some juices also offer potassium. However, many commercially available juices can be high in added sugars and lower in fiber compared to whole fruits. People watching their sugar intake should be mindful of juice consumption. A typical serving is around 4-6 ounces per day. While juice can contribute to your daily fruit intake, it might not be the best option for weight management due to its calorie density and lower fiber content. Consider diluting your juice with water or opting for a smaller portion.
