    One-liners you don’t want to miss:

    “Under extreme conditions juice can lead to worsening to some markers of dental health but we don’t actually have evidence to say that’s the case in normal circumstances.”

    “100% juice can also improve markers of cardiovascular health and help to lower markers of chronic inflammation.”

    “We now have 19 randomised controlled trials comparing 100% juice to non-calorie beverages, so that could be water, an artificially sweetened beverage. There is not one study that shows any change in body weight with 100% juice. ”
