THE INSIdE INfORMATION
ON JUICE
Although juice drinks are usually developed
with flavor, texture and aroma at the
forefront, the health benefits certainly add to
the pleasurable taste experience. 70% of the
nutrient content of fruit and vegetables is
found in the juice. Liquids are an important
part of a well balanced diet and fresh juice
is an easy source of vitamins and minerals.
Juices are rapidly absorbed into the blood
stream therefore being the quickest way
in which the body can digest nutrients.
Citrus juice is renowned for its high content
of Vitamin C and cold and flu fighting
capabilities. Freshly extracted juices should
be consumed just after they have been made
to avoid vitamin content loss.
