TRAVEL DAYS: THE GREEN MACHINE NAKED JUICE

Earlier this morning i posted this picture of a bottle of the 'Green Machine' Naked Juice on my [instagram account]:





I thought it might be a good idea to do some research of my on on the Naked Juice brand and did i ever come up with some unexpected finds! 

First, i just want to say that this juice does have a fair amount of calories and sugars for one bottle. I drink this juice as a meal supplement so the amount of calories isn't really a big deal for me since i'm not eating anything else along with it. Regarding the high natural sugar content, again, this is one of the healthier options i find at airports so since i am limited i have to take whatever is available to me.

Upon researching this juice brand, i discovered two important things. First, the parent company of Naked Juice Products is PepsiCo. This should say enough on it's own that you shouldn't believe everything you're told about the product. Secondly, there is a present lawsuit against the company for using GMOs (genetically modified organisms) including genetically altered soy in their products. Therefore their products are not 'All Natural' like they say. Not cool!! Although all of these 'accusations' have been denied, they settled the lawsuit and agreed to not used the phrase 'All Natural' on their products in the future. Hmmmm....

These findings make me reconsider Naked Juice products and their false advertising to consumers. 

Visit this [link] to read more into the lawsuit against the company.

What do you think of Naked Juice Products?
