Whether consuming sugarcane juice is healthy for health or not, this question often remains in the minds of people. Now, ICMR has answered this question by issuing new guidelines.
To keep themselves hydrated in the summer season, people like to drink all kinds of drinks from time to time. One of these is sugarcane juice. People also like its taste very much. However, apart from the taste, whether the consumption of sugarcane juice is healthy for health or not, this question often remains in the minds of people. Now, ICMR has answered this question by issuing new guidelines. Let’s know about it-
Is sugarcane juice healthy or not?
According to ICMR, excessive consumption of sugarcane juice can be very harmful for health. Not only this, drinking it in small quantities is also not good for certain people. This is because sugarcane juice contains high amount of sugar.
According to ICMR, an adult should not consume more than 30 grams of sugar in a day, while for children between 7 and 10 years this amount decreases to 24 grams. At the same time, 100 ml of sugarcane juice contains about 13-15 grams of sugar.
That means by drinking just one glass of sugarcane juice, you reach your daily sugar limit. In such a situation, avoid consuming sugarcane juice in large quantities. At the same time, even if you drink this juice in small quantities, keep your day’s sugar intake in mind.
These people should not consume it
According to health experts, especially diabetes patients should avoid consuming sugarcane juice even in small quantities. Along with natural sugar, sugarcane juice also has a high glycemic load, which can affect the blood sugar level of diabetes patients. In such a situation, diabetes patients should stay away from consuming this juice.
