Can Fruit Juice Count Towards My Daily Fruit Intake?

Can fruit juice count towards my

daily fruit intake?

While 100% juice can count towards your intake, the majority of your choices should be whole or cut-up fruits (fresh, frozen, canned, or dried). These fruit choices are better options because they contain dietary fiber. ½ cup (4 fluid ounces) of 100% fruit juice does count as ½ cup of fruit in meeting your requirements.
