Orange Juice Calories, Blood Sugar Spikes & Loads Of Abdominal Fat

Author: Jason Clemens

Do you drink lots of orange juice calories?

Do you have loads of excess abdominal fat that you desperately want gone?

If you answered yes, then this will be the most important article you will ever read.

Here's why. I'm going to share with you the connection between orange juice calories and your handfuls of tummy fat. And I'm also going to reveal a simple "food shift" that will make your weight loss a whole lot easier.

And this "food shift" doesn't just apply to drinking orange juice... but every other fruit juice as well.

So pay attention here because this works like gangbusters!

Let's begin.

When companies take a whole fruit and "juice" it... say an orange... most of the "pulp" and other solid matter gets removed. (This is true even if the label reads "contains pulp".)

Why is this a problem?

This is a problem because the solid matter contains fiber and other nutrients that dramatically "slow" the absorption rate of the fruit into your bloodstream.

You see... a huge enemy of any individual trying to lose weight is consuming food that causes sporadic blood sugar spikes. These spikes are responsible for a whole slew of problems including: Drained energy, ravenous hunger, food cravings and elevated body fat storage. Just to name a few.

The bottom line is that when all the solid matter is removed from the fruit... when you are left with just the juice... it elevates the fruits fat producing capabilities.

This is why drinking fruit juice is a much more potent fat producer than eating the whole fruit.

Now, this doesn't even take into consideration the fact that most every company adds sugar or some other "sweetener" that will even shoot your blood sugar higher (just read the labels).

This is why in most cases, the whole orange contains fewer calories (around 85 calories) than a comparable amount of orange juice (around 112 calories).

Now don't get me wrong. Fruit juice can have amazing health benefits. Especially if it is organically squeezed.

But it will never top eating the whole fruit.

First, as we discussed, the whole fruit does not cause dramatic blood sugar spikes like juice. This means less stored fat.

And secondly... if you eat the whole fruit you will get a lot of fiber. Something that is a potent appetite suppressant and even curbs food cravings.

So if your goal is to lose weight as fast as possible, then give up the orange juice calories and eat the whole fruit.

Your belly will thank you.
