alter taste or nutritional value. Orange juice
is often debated, with some experts labeling
it as sugar water, cautioning against excessive
consumption due to its natural sugars. Despite
its nutrient content, health authorities recommend
whole fruit instead. The proposed sugar threshold
would drop from 18 grams to 17 grams per serving,
impacting labeling but not nutrient quality.
