It doesn't matter if these beverages are made with fruits and vegetables... the sugar content is appalling. I know there are two servings per bottle, but the bottles are small. Certain flavors have more than 60g per bottle! Choose water and get your nutrients from whole vegetables and fruits. Odwalla may be better than soda, but it's really just a lesser of two evils.

I love this stuff!

I agree with Emily..this is a big sugarbomb. I'd prefer a plain tea with a squirt of fresh lemon for a pick me up. I don't drink soda.

WOW - that IS too much sugar. Fit, it's a little ironic considering your post above recommending you keep your sugar intake under 40 - 45 grams a day. Drinking a full bottle of most of these is MORE than what your daily intake SHOULD be... (Gives a new meaning to the label "FitSugar"?)

...plus, aren't they like $3 a pop?

woops - that other post was talking about 40-45 g ADDED sugar.

What constitutes ADDED sugar?

plus.. the sugar in these drinks are from fruit. added sugar, which is not found in any of these drinks is constituted as any sugar that is not the natural form of sugar. ex. aspartame.

i loveeee these drinks! i usually have one of these for my lunch and some have an extra energy boost that allows me to keep going throughout the day! my favorites are strawberry banana and mango tango!!

I prefure Naked, nice post!

Remember that the sugar in most of the fruit ones is from the actual fruit (not like the Limeade or lemonade, that's added sugars).

I remember a friend of mine was appalled by how much sugar was in a cup of berries, screaming "I thought they were healthy!"

That was a long explanation.
The reason you are better off eating the whole fruit is due to the fiber (that's what make you feel fuller, longer).
These are fine in moderation

Meh. I still feel guilty if I drink the stuff. Water and an orange or an apple really fill me up better, anyway.

Odwalla is owned by Coke. Coke supports violence against labor leaders in Latin America. So worry a bit less about the sugar and a bit more about funding evil.

Now, back when these drinks (well, slightly better tasting versions thereof) were called Fresh Samantha, a small, Maine-based company, they were cool.

god i though was an independent company. oh it just had to own by coke ( so annoying) and the content is sugar awfull. same a coke.

I LOVE the Pumpkin protein but it's seasonal!!!

The green Superfood used to be my lifeline in high school and college... too bad it's not available in France! Still trying to find a European substitute.

And yeah, the sugar content in juice comes from fruit. There's no added sugars - flipping out over the sugar content in these is like cutting oranges out of your diet because they're too high in sugar.

There is a difference between sugar, and natural sugar. If you don't want to drink Odwalla or Naked, you're only cutting fruit out of your diet. Don't be &%tarded.

they're pretty yummy but not something i'd drink often due to the high calorie per serving, and there's often 2 servings per bottle.

mmm so delicious!
