"not enough fruits, vegetables which contain ingredients that your body needs to properly function."

Is orange juice a fruit? There, take some of your own medicine lol.

In all seriousness, if you're not convinced ultra processed foods are bad for you as a rule, there's nothing I can do except throw a bunch of studies at you, which I've already argued is insane for such a basic and common sense concept

I know you probably will take great issue with "common sense", but most people I know, don't. That's why it's common lol

And presumably you've already seen lots of these studies so I don't even know why we're arguing something that makes sense and is also backed up by many studies (though a large proportion of these studies are likely to be garbage)




> Is orange juice a fruit? There, take some of your own medicine lol.

I'm not sure what you are trying to imply here? That it is? Orange juice is not a fruit, it's a juice derived from a fruit. Which is healthy in moderation, but definitely not enough alone to cover all the optimal ingredients you would get from a variance of different fruits.

I'm not convinced because it all depends on how it was exactly processed and the amounts.
