I dunno what kind of juice you are thinking of, but when I get done juicing an orange, all that's left is the peel, and I don't eat that. I am NOT talking about those absolutely pulpless clear juices- the kind they put in kids' lunches. That is NOT juice.

My blood sugar has been the same for years- but I watch it. My HDL on the other hand has zoomed up to 60, while my Triglycerides and LDL both fell from triple digits to 70 and 84 respectively. (2.6 ratio, down from 3.9 less that a year previous) I pay attention to my numbers, and they are really good. I don't think you should be discouraging people from drinking good juices. If they are buying pulpless processed stuff- I've no idea how good that is, but fresh squeezed? Everyone probably ought to be drinking fresh squeezed organic juices. Not that they will. Which is fine with me- I'd rather my fruit didn't get too expensive.

Again, it's not the *sugar* in juice that's going to get people, it's the other crap. When people get rid of all their little snacky snacks and sin foods, THEN maybe they should worry about juice- but I happen to think that's a fool's errand even at that point.
