I've heard that I should consider Welch's 100% White Grape Juice as my baby's first juice. Why?

Studies have shown that babies digest white grape juice more easily than other clear fruit juices – which contain sorbitol, a natural sugar alcohol that's difficult for the body to absorb. In addition, the natural sugars fructose and glucose are easier to absorb when evenly balanced. Apple and pear juices contain sorbitol and have more fructose than glucose, but white grape juice contains no sorbitol and has an even balance of fructose and glucose. This means that only white grape juice has the natural sugar profile easiest for babies to digest. What’s more, a 2001 study in the Journal of Pediatrics reported that 100% white grape juice was less likely to cause recurrence of diarrhea in young children. It was better tolerated by children recovering from diarrhea than either apple or pear juice.
