I’ve seen it in movies (yes, Steel Magnolias is one of them). It’s also used when giving blood. What makes them the preferred choice over any other fruit? Berries, apples, pears, bananas, etc?

>Why are oranges the preferred way to get your blood sugar up?
Sugar is the preferred way to get your blood sugar up. (Orange) juice happens to be cheap, ubiquitous and full of sugar.
It’s not. If you have low blood sugar in the hospital, we’ll typically give you whatever juice or soda is available with a snack. If it’s very low or you can’t eat/drink for some reason, we might give it IV. There is nothing special about orange juice.
