Drinking one glass or more of 100% fruit juice each day is associated with weight gain in children and adults, according to a new analysis of 42 previous studies.

The research, published Tuesday in JAMA Pediatrics, found a positive association between drinking 100% fruit juice and BMI — a calculation that takes into account weight and height — among kids. It also found an association between daily consumption of 100% fruit juice with weight gain among adults.

100% fruit juice was defined as fruit juices with no added sugar.

    Still 500 or 23% more than average for a man… The difference is a single digit… That’s in the third position of the number, but still, it’s just one digit!

    How hard is that to understand?

      I did a TDEE calculation based on 3 times a week exercise and I got 2685 for a man of my weight

      Basically having more muscle is a rounding error, some fat guy may be burning only 50 calories less
