Yes, fruit juice can be bad for you. Anything more than a small glass that you made yourself. If you buy pre-made, that juice is more sugar than water that once passed by a fruit on it's way to bottling.
The fiber from the fruit's meat helps you get full thereby ensuring you don't eat a huge amount of the fructose. If you juice it, you remove the meat and fiber, concentrating the fructose into a much smaller form necessitating you use several fruits worth to get a good amount. That's a lot of sugar.

Ah understood, so fructose isn’t necessarily bad for you… just excess accounts found in juices and junk food are no good.
I’d assume fruit smoothies are okay because they keep the fiber off the fruit in the concoction.
