A 20-year-old member asked:
Is fruit/fruit juice ok for me if i'm hypoglycemic?
2 doctor answers • 4 doctors weighed in

Dr. Pedro Hernandez answered
Geriatrics 40 years experience
Only during symptoms: "hypogycemias" are real in diabetic patients that take too much medication or don't eat after taking medications. Unless there is tumor producing low glucose (insulinoma) most people keep normal levels of glucose even while starving. If you recover from your symptoms quickly with the fruit or juice is possible you have real hypoglycemia but is better to prove &measure it ( must be less than 60 ).

What juice will aid in growing taller ? I want to grow taller

None: No amount juice can get you taller as it depends on your family trait. And extra juice more than an 8 oz glass a day is full of sugar products.
You are better off eating fresh fruits.
You are going to grow until you are 18 years old .Good luck
