The first line of my reply was in jest...

Home made fruit juice contains a lot of pulp, unless you subsequently 
filter it out.

Also, apple juice (filtered or not), is said to help with a low g.i 
diet.  A 'small' glass (i.e. not pints of the stuff) taken with a meal 
can effectively help lower the g.i of the meal.

I try to make as much juice of our own as we can (allows me to add 
carrot to nearly everything as a base, kids don't realise). But any 
juice I do buy has to have no additives, its still made from 
concentrated source I suppose, but they drink loads of water as well, so 
  I just keep an eye on it.  Can't take all the sugar away from kids,
