An orange slice in water

The switch: an orange slice in water instead of an eight-ounce bottle orange juice


The savings: 120 (about 960 per month)


  If you can’t make it in the morning without your OJ, try this swap on for size. “One glass of orange juice has five to six oranges in it, so it contains a crazy amount of sugar,” says Zeitlin. And if you’re drinking an entire eight-ounce bottle of the stuff, you’re likely taking in two servings instead of one. That sugar surge can spike your blood sugar and lead to a munchies-inducing crash later on. By drinking water instead of juice, your body soaks that h2o up to replenish the water you lose during the day, says Zeitlin.
