1. The Great Juice Debate
Tang is a fruit-flavored drink. Originally formulated by General Foods Corporation food scientist
William A. Mitchell[1] in 1957, it was first marketed in powdered form in 1959.[2] Sales of Tang
were poor until NASA used it on John Glenn’s Mercury flight,[3] and subsequent Gemini
missions. Since then, it was closely associated with the US manned spaceflight program,
leading to the misconception that Tang was invented for the space program.[4][5] The Tang
brand is currently owned by Kraft Foods. History Tang was famously used by some early NASA
manned space flights[6]. In 1962, when Mercury astronaut John Glenn conducted eating
experiments in orbit, Tang was selected for the menu,[2] and was also used during some
Gemini flights. The creator of Tang, William A. Mitchell, also invented Pop Rocks, Cool Whip, a
form of instant-set Jell-O, and other convenience foods.[7] Original Tang Tang is sold both in
powdered and ready to drink form. The recommended usage of original powdered Tang is two
tablespoons per 8 US fluid ounces (240 ml) of water. A single 8 US fl oz (240 ml) serving of
Tang provides 9 grams (0.32 oz) of sugar; 40 kilocalories (167 kJ); 100% RDA of vitamin C;
10% RDA of vitamin A, calcium, vitamin E, riboflavin, niacin, and vitamin B6, and no caffeine.
Kraft also makes a sugar-free version of Tang, containing aspartame, which comes in
individually-measured packets and was introduced in March 1985.

2. The Great Juice Debate
Author: Angela Garrison
The recent revelation of Arsenic in Apple Juice has parents concerned and frustrated.
Concerned because children are the single biggest consumers of juice; Frustrated because they
think juice is 100% healthy.
I’m not going to debate whether I think the study from Dr. Oz is legitimate or not, as it probably
is pretty accurate. I think Juice is dangerously misunderstood by 99.9% of the population.
Juice is not a health food! Kids should not be drinking juice everyday, throughout the
day. The juice from fruit is actually the bad part of the fruit; it’s the fruit minus all the fiber, and
micronutrients. It’s pure fructose.
Only your liver can metabolize fructose so let me take you on a journey through your liver when
you consume juice. Your body first has to give up phosphates to start metabolizing the fructose
making the waste product Uric Acid (causes gout) which blocks the enzymes from making Nitric
Oxide (keeps your blood pressure low), when you can’t make nitric oxide your blood pressure
goes up. Nova Lipogenesis gets activated and now you get fat. When you consume fructose
you are consuming fat. Fructose increases inflammation in the liver by initiating an enzymethat
is truly and appropriately named “Junk 1.” Free fatty acids form and populate muscles. Some
fat will not make it out of your liver, and you wind up with fatty liver, Non-Alcoholic Liver
Disease.
Your pancreas starts working harder generating more insulin because your liver becomes
insulin resistant. The more insulin your pancreas makes the higher your blood pressure goes
and it also generates more fat. The higher your insulin goes your brain can’t see it’s leptin (the
thing that tells your brain you are full) and you keep consuming calories because your body
thinks it’s starving.
Is it any wonder why the obesity epidemic is growing fastest in 2-5 year olds? That
young children are being diagnosed with diabetes, high blood pressure, gout, fatty liver
disease, heart disease, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and high cholesterol? ALL of
these things happen with chronic fructose exposure.
One thing you can do as a parent to give your child the best chance at good health later in life is
to limit all beverage consumption to plain water, and milk. It’s probably the single most
important thing you can do. Offer fresh fruits and veggies. Fructose is absorbed differently if
consumed in its natural whole fruit form as the fiber attached helps slow absorption.
