No Juice; Water please

by | 22 Mar 2019

I had to go to doctors’ office today and I found the following article on their board

It says, ” The non-profit consumer research and advocacy group tested 45 fruit juices (apple, grape, pear and fruit blends) sold across the U.S. and found elevated levels of those heavy metals in nearly half of them. Particularly concerning to the researchers was that many of the juices were marketed to children.” Also, doctors usually advise that the children do not need to drink any juice and drinking water is good enough for them. I guess we don’t need to bother buying any juice – it will save us money too.
