Fruit juice causes aging of the skin of the face, due to the exclusion of coarse fiber of the fruit itself, which provokes the glycation of proteins and the destruction of skin collagen.
Many girls, when they want to become more beautiful, go to the solarium, sunbathe, and even after the tanning procedure, they drink beautifully advertised freshly squeezed fruit juice. And all this in the hope of becoming more attractive.
We will not talk here about how ultraviolet rays cause irreversible photoaging of the skin of the face. In this article, we will talk about the second part of the traditional trip to the solarium - freshly squeezed fruit juice.
There is really no difference between fresh fruit juice, or reconstituted fruit juice, or soda. In essence, they are the same, in terms of their properties to cause premature aging of the facial skin, the appearance of wrinkles.
As a result of such trips, dear girls, you get a temporary beautiful color, but you do everything possible to make your face age and wrinkle as quickly as possible. Then you will smear it with various moisturizers, but you will not be able to radically save the situation.
So, let's figure out what fruit juice does with our skin, and indeed, with the whole body.
Fruit juice causes protein glycation
Protein glycation is one of the main mechanisms of aging. It is the glycation of proteins that destroys the skin collagen, and wrinkles appear on the skin.
Fruit juice, devoid of coarse fiber, which is found in fruits, has a high glycemic index (reflects the degree of ability of glucose contained in the product to quickly enter the blood, causing a sharp rise in the level of insulin in the blood). Such a sharp rise in insulin causes glycation.
Besides, fruit juice is high in fructose, which causes glycation 10 times stronger than glucose.
But what can you say here? After all, fruits also contain fructose. But the fact of the matter is that the coarse fiber that fruits contain causes a quick feeling of fullness. And you want to drink fruit juice or sweet soda without feeling full.
By consuming fruit juice, we get significantly more fructose as a result, since the high glycemic index in juices "stirs up" the appetite. And fructose from the juice very quickly enters the bloodstream, causing glycation.

Fruit juice causes dangerous diseases
Also, sweet soda or fruit juice cause many dangerous diseases, which are essentially aging, or lead to aging of the whole body, and not only cause aging of the facial skin:

Fruit juice is not a healthy diet
Fruit juice is commonly associated with healthy eating.
Yes, it contains some vitamins. But all this is covered by the huge content of fast sugars and much fewer vitamins and minerals than in fruits themselves. Maybe you think fruit juice contains less sugar than plain soda?
Then look at how much sugar is in 350 ml (can) of Coca-Cola and 350 ml of apple juice contains:
- Coca-Cola contains 40 grams (10 teaspoons) of sugar
- Apple juice contains 39 grams (9.8 teaspoons) of sugar
At its core, when we drink 350 ml of juice, we drink 350 ml of tea with 10 tablespoons of sugar.
