Orange Juice Vs Calorime Analysis

Serving sizes: The serving sizes of these food types also illustrated a broad difference of almost double the other’s serving size. While the serving size of freshly squeezed orange juice only contains 237 ml, that of G2 contains 591 ml. And, yet, the fresh orange juice contained more than twice (2.24 times) in natural calories compared to G2’s liquid sugar calories. Thus, based on a 1 cup serving size, the alternative juice drink G2 represents two serving sizes at half the caloric value and almost no other nutritional content aside from its high sodium level.

Cost per serving: The cost of three pieces of fresh oranges were CA$2.00 (CA$0.66 apiece), while that of G2 Orange was CA$12.64, or an equivalent of CA$6.32 per serving, which is 3.16 times more costly than fresh orange juice per serving.

However, G2 sports drink has high sodium content that can adequately replenish the lost sodium during physical activities, which the freshly squeezed orange juice has low content. Moreover, the volume of water must be more in G2 than in the freshly squeezed orange juice, although there is no means to verify that exactly in pure water content analysis other than an estimate on the relative volumes of their serving
