WATCH – WHY AMERICA IS SO SICK –  

August 18, 2021 – Snapple Apple We have the same concerns for Snapple Apple that we do for Minute Maid lemonade. Of the 47 grams of total sugar, 42 of them are added—that’s a lot considering this beverage is supposed to be apple juice. Not all fruit juice is bad, however, this one certainly shouldn’t be your go-to. Instead, consider buying Lakewood Organic Pure Apple Juice, which contains no added sugars. — MONSTER, PER 16 OZ. CAN: 230 calories, 0 g fat (0 g saturated fat, 0 g trans fat), 370 mg sodium, 58 g carbs (0 g fiber, 54 g sugar), 0 g protein

One can of this drink packs a whopping 160 milligrams of caffeine, well over the amount of caffeine you’d find in 1.5 cups of coffee. For context, each 8-ounce cup of coffee packs about 95 milligrams of caffeine, per the USDA. In addition, each can pack more sugar than what’s in one 2/3 cup serving of Ben & Jerry’s Topped Salted Caramel Brownie ice cream at 37 grams sugar.
