one of the things she bought was a carton of orange juice, and i dont remember what i said but i remember her saying "but it's healthy! it's got vitamin C!"
And then i told her that sugar depresses the immune system and she didn't believe me at all! lol...she was just like "yeah right!"
this is the type of crazy thing i now know, but would never have believed a few years ago. now i look at a small carton of juice and can't believe parents give it to thier kids when it has as much sugar, or more, as a serving of ice cream! but i used to buy juice boxes all the time...
