Scientists say they can reduce the sugar content of juice by more than two-thirds

"It's just incredible that we found a way to significantly reduce the sugar content of juice through a natural process."

"There are no additives, there are no sweeteners involved, and you are able to get the nutritional benefit of juice without as much sugar."Sugar consumption is a major health issue in Australia, and overconsumption is a leading contributor to several diseases, including obesity and diabetes.Ms Howells said most people would be surprised to know how much sugar was in a typical bottle of juice.

Citrus Australia chief executive Nathan Hancock said orange juice was being "demonised" as a product."There are so many other manufactured products deliberately hiding sugar in there to enhance the flavour and encourage people to eat them," he said.Citrus Australia's Nathan Hancock says the health-star rating system should be scuttled.Gemma Howells said the CSIRO was hoping its new technology could improve the health-star rating of fruit juices.

It's called dilution. Juice + water.

If I dont want sugar I won’t drink juice

It’s good for you ,just don’t drink so much of it.Leave the fruit alone just promote small doses of it and not 600 ml containers.

Yeah don’t have as much

Why not grow fruit that’s less sweet? I can’t eat lots of fruit and vegetables because of their overpowering sweetness and no flavour

The scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.

Fruit juice is not healthy. But for farmers needing to sell produce that doesn't meet supermarket standards I can see a produce innovation like this being important.

Just leave it alone and focus on the fast food industry sugar use .

If the CSIRO think diet soda is better for you than juice, would you trust them?

Why?

Take the natural out of natural fruit 🙄

What a waste of time. Really how much was spent on this. Maybe 🤔 try eating the Fruit. Fibre, flesh, fresh and all !

If it’s 100% squeezed juice then the sugar needs to be in there as nature intended

Kids reply why they would actually even do that, anyway?

Alternatively, just drink water from a tap and eat the fruit.

Two candidates in Scotland’s leadership raceScotland's Health Minister Humza Yousaf and former minister Ash Regan have announced their intentions to run for the country's leadership following the resignation of Nicola Sturgeon as first minister earlier this week. Mr Yousaf and Ms Regan are the first candidates to officially declare plans to run for the Scottish National Party's leadership. Scotland's Deputy First Minister John Swinney ruled himself out of the leadership contention on Thursday, saying his decision was to create space for a fresh perspective on governing the party. Humza Yousaf 😂 good old traditional Scottish name that is to run there country Humza McYousaf. Not surprised the SNP would allow this racist to run. But then again maybe he should. He's totally incompetent just like the failed state of Pakistan.
