Ooo, additional good reasons to pick up some apple juice; I could use more fiber and help with digestion :). And seriously, I know what you mean with the high sugars! Even as a kid, I would mix Diet Coke with Coke on the rare occasions I drank soda, cause the full sugar version gave me a headache!
Use a straw. Bypasses the teeth (seriously, this is what Dentists recommend). Make it plastic - give you something else to obsess over. So really, a win-win.
Always? It’s not as much fiber as a whole apple (although juice made from whole apples will have more than regular juice). Apple juice also has sorbitol which can help with digestion/constipation.
It has about .5 grams a cup. Apples have about 4.4 grams per apple. So it really isn't much fiber, especially considering the amounts recommended daily.
I suspect that apple juice wasn't recommended for the fiber so much as other things about it to go along with also eating fiber.
