What is the difference between eating a fruit or its juice?

Answer 1

Both are healthy, especially if you are drinking 100% pure juice. However, eating the actual fruit will help to provide your body with the ruffage it needs to help keep your body clean as well.

Answer 2

Eating a fruit or drinking its juice is really a matter of convenience or preference. For example- on the subway it might be hard to eat a pineapple, but a drink of pineapple juice is obviously easier to travel with you. Time and preference vary from person to person. You should know that there is much more vitamin C in the pulp of an orange than in a glass of orange juice. I say alternate- eat and drink your fruit! Enjoy!

Answer 3

Eating fruit is more healthy than drinking fruit juice. When you drink the juice you are getting too much sugar and acids

Answer 4

I believe the fruit itself has more nutrients it's all natural..sometimes fruit juices contain sugar and other ingredients..

Answer 5

fruit has fiber
juice alone doesnt--plus in this day and age, many juices have added sugar or what not--so easily taking in something that you don't want

Answer 6

Food is better digested in eating due to saliva mixing. Juice will take comparetively more time for digestion.

Answer 7

You get a lot more fiber with the fruit and it's in it's pure form and not processed. You control what's in it. Much more filling.

Answer 8

Fruit= natural vitamins and minerals
Juice= sugar and fortified vitamins and minerals along with chemicals to preserve it

Answer 9

You either drink or eat!!
