This tip is from Dr. OZ. Stretch your juice by pouring out 1/3 of it into another bottle and adding water to the first bottle until full again, Then add a little water to the other bottle. Dr. Oz says there is way too much sugar in juice and you will still get the vitamins you need from the juice even with the additional water.
