Is it true that orange juice can wake you up better than coffee??


Answers: There may be more truth to that statement than what all the other posters are giving credit to. However, this would only be under certain conditions. The sugar in Orange juice is one of the sugars that is metabolized by the human body in the fastest amount of time, and so, by drinking a glass of orange juice (which is, after all, the product of a good number of oranges itself), you are drinking a lot of sugar that will get into your cells in a very short amount of time. For many people, that gives a really quick carbohydrate, and hence, energy boost that might make them feel a lot more awake. And, in cases like for diabetic persons, if they are in a low blood sugar condition, drinking a glass of orange juice will actually wake them up far far more than a cup of Joe ever would.
no i never hard that befor but maybe it does
It depends, if you're a kid, then orange juice would be better, but, if you're an adult, coffee works better.
actually water does!! A big chilled glass works all the time--then have your coffee
No. OJ has no caffeine
OH BABY...... I need my coffee in the morning.
O.J. Is great anytime of the day.
it does have a lot of surgar in it and vit c
100% orange juice and other 100% fruit juices can give you more natural energy than coffee. The fresher the fruit juice the better.
Depends on your system. Your organism might react better to a jolt of vitamin C and fructose than Caffeine. It really depends on what kind of metabolism you have.
not sure about that but 100% sure that Apple does.
I don't really like coffee but when studying for finals you need it. But OJ always woke me up better.
Coffee contains caffeine, which is a temporary stimulus which peaks your efficiency for a couple of hours. It is unhealthy in the long-run, if over-used, just like anything else. Orange Juice, however, has a long-term healthy effect on the body, and by drinking something that is healthy over long periods of time, will eventually be your best bet for a wake-up. But coffe is just more fun.
NO,COFFEE CAN WAKE U UP THAN ORANGE JUICE.
Hell No!

Some vitamin-junky-do-gooder would have said some crap like that!

Caffeine or amphetamines are the only stimulants... Or a good nights sleep...

Orange juice... is really good with Vodka.
Yes, it will wake up your bowels too and clean you out so you can dump your first load and get on with the day.
I'm not sure about that, but I had a plate of chicken nuggets for break feast, instead of the usual sugar loaded snack (donut/cake - Little Debbie) and there was a noticeable difference in my level energy level throughout the day.
Conclusion protein vs. sugar - protein wins
really?? hard to believe because i've always drink coffee first thing in the morning..works for me though.
My erection normally wakes me up
Sure, If I downed a big pulpy glass of Orange Juice in the morning on an empty stomach that's sensitive to Citric acid. I'd have so much acid in my throat, how could anyone not wake up faster. Who can sleep when you feel like that!

Coffee's gross anyway, makes one breath smell hella-bad!
A refreshing glass of water does the trick for me!
