Sugar Labels May Mislead
The phrase “no added sugar” can be misleading if taken to mean that the juice is sugar-free. Grape juice, for example, may contain 35 or 36 grams of total sugar in a 240-milliliter cup, even though it lists zero grams of added sugar. The World Health Organization classifies naturally occurring sugars in juice as free sugars, which it recommends limiting. Juice also raises blood sugar faster than whole fruit. For diabetes management, one-third to half a cup may provide about 15 grams of carbohydrates. Diluting juice with water reduces the amount of sugar consumed only if you use less juice; adding water to a full cup and drinking it all does not change the amount of sugar.
