Yes
Grape Juice is like the worst juice. If I'm gonna contract cancerbetes from juice I'm choosing orange
I know they encourage drinking less but:
I'll take my chances just like how every breath I take increases my chances of lung cancer or every time I put on boxer briefs I increase my chances of testicular cancer.

Respiration oxygenates blood which allows cellular mitosis to occur which is the process that gives rise to cancerous mutations which are themselves the cause of cancer.
Breathing causes cancer.

Personally, I stopped drinking juice in my teenage years, just because you're better off eating the actual fruit instead, but there's no point in worrying about every little thing giving you cancer, because literally everything is giving you cancer. Just don't overdo it, as you would with any other thing you put into your body.
Reminds me of the link of processed meat to cancer. I believe it was something like you have to eat a serving of bacon every day for your cancer risk to go up by 1 percent...
Another day, another headline about a study that is likely terrible but gets press because BE AFRAID.
Yes. These studies are meant to help us make healthier choices, but they instead appear to engender apathy and reinforce unhealthy behavior because people think that "everything causes cancer."
As OP said, just drink water. Is that so hard?
Why drink only water when it specifically says excessive consumption of fruit juice? Just don't excessively consume it, like literally everything else. You shouldn't be excessively consuming anything.
I mean some people have tap water that can possibly cause cancer...
My favorite drink! (White-flavored, specifically) Guess we're both screwed.
Every little thing you do cause cancer
Every little thing you do just kill me dead
Even though my life before was healthy
Now I know that Grape Juice done me in
Parents give kids these toxic juice boxes or sippy cups full of apple juice just to shut them up. It establishes a terrible life-long addiction to sugar.
Petty anti-science posts all around.
I stopped drinking fruit juice in the morning because it contains all the sugars in liquid form. Eating raw fruits is better because the sugar is inside the fruit fiber, so it doesn't interact with the body as much.
I wouldn't make a big deal out of it. Drinking some fruit juice won't give you cancer. Just be moderate.

This is a terrible list. Replace beer/wine with scotch/bourbon and we have an accord.
White is a flavor?
Alcohol metabolizes to a product that is a well known carcinogen...
Steve Jobs would sometimes spend weeks eating nothing but apples. Then he would eat nothing but carrots.
I suspect that his pancreatic cancer may have been caused by an extreme fruitarian diet, which led to too much intake of sugar.
Ashton Kutcher attempted to follow the same diet in preparation for playing Jobs in a film, and suffered a bout of pancreatitis.
It's just sugar. Sugary drinks make you fatter. Fruit juice is high in sugar. But that's not as click-baity as "fruit juice raises the risk of cancer"
No use worrying unless it's something really harmful like cigarette smoke and excessive radiation. After all, way too many uncountable things have slight chance of causing cancer. Being a multicellular organism just makes you susceptible to it. Sugar is way more harmful in other aspects anyways.
Yeah it's always weird reading these types of threads. Like people just completely disregard the science and pretend since many things are slightly dangerous, then no point in paying attention to what you consume. Some things are way more dangerous than others.
Yes, many things can give you cancer, but there are definitely safer ways to eat to keeps the risk very low.
