The Claire Byrne Show · Are fruit juices the nutritional wasteland we believe? · 26 Jun 2026 podcast

Is it?

Well, do you know what I mean?

It's good.

Soup is fantastic.

You know, it's vegetables.

Just because it's pureed doesn't mean it's bad for you.

Whereas when we puree fruit, people kind of go, oh my God, it's bad for you.

It's not.

And the thing with smoothies is, you know, you can make them with milk instead of fruit juice.

So that lowers the sugar and it gives a little bit of protein.

You know, there's nice things you can do with it.

But like that, if, you know, the antioxidants and the vitamins that we get from fruit and veg are so important that if you're someone who really struggles to eat fruit and veg, a glass of fruit juice is definitely better than nothing.

So to be honest, when I look at a lot of the smoothies, most of them are just fruit and fruit juice in them.

There's not usually anything terribly bad in an awful lot of the ones that are on the shelf with it.

My only hesitation, as I said, is they tend to be mostly fruit juice with some of the puree, whereas with smoothies you make at home, you're literally just pureeing up the actual fruit and veg.

So from a sugar point of view, especially if you use like milk or yogurt or something instead of fruit juice, the sugar content is a little bit lower.

The free sugar kind of content is a bit lower.

Not particularly.

I mean, it's there, but if you're having any fruit, it's going to have fibre in it.

So even if you have things like, you know, if you puree up a banana, you know, that kind of thing, that's still going to have the fibre is still there in the drink that you're drinking, unlike juice where the fibre is strained out of it.
