Hi @darek,
There is a vast difference between refined white sugar and the natural sugars found in fruit. This is also the thing people focus on when seeing juice recipes. I covered this in Day 2 :
"Sugar is usually the thing people focus on and they are right to do so. Refined sugar is very bad, and too much of any sugar is bad. Thing is with juicing is that you are keeping these sugars in their natural state and mixing them with TONS of veggies. The fruit is mostly there to make the juices palatable and hardcore juicers actually cut most of this out. Thing is if you are new to juicing or don't juice often these recipes would be too harsh and not at all to your tastes."
I find a lot of juice recipes online very sweet tasting, but i am used to juice now and can take lower amounts of fruit.
Also when media talk about sugar they are talking about refined white, corn syrups or similar. These are MASSIVELY different to natural sugars and very bad for you.
Hi @b0y2k,
maybe I was too strict with myself. Cause I have to admit that really love orance juice... it is my ambrosia.
It is not the point right now, but do you know what kind of sugar honey has? I mean nothing is good when u consume to much but does honey count to the bad or the good sweeteners? Thanks for you answer. I will follow you, cause I want to eat more conscious in the future

Honey is fine in moderation, manuka honey is the one i would recommend. With certain shop bought honeys sometimes they are padded out with other sugars. So always check the label. Buy local if you dont want to pay out for manuka. Just remember honey is actually sweeter than sugar so a little goes a long way.
I would still aim to get my sweetness from fruits and save honey for the more special treats.
With everything its more about portion control and varying your diet than cutting things out entirely.
