20-September-2008 09:29:05 - Juice For other uses, see Juice disambiguation. Orange juice Orange juice Juice is a liquid naturally contained in fruit or vegetable tissue. Juice is prepared by mechanically squeezing or macerating fresh fruits or vegetables without the application of heat or solvents. For example, orange juice is the liquid extract of the fruit of the orange tree. Juice may be prepared in the home from fresh fruits and vegetables using variety of hand or electric juicers. Many commercial juices are filtered to remove fiber or pulp, but high pulp fresh orange juice is marketed as an alternative. Juice may be marketed in concentrate form, sometimes frozen, requiring the user to add water to reconstitute the liquid back to its original state. Generally, concentrates have a noticeably different taste than their comparable fresh-squeezed versions. Other juices are reconstituted before packaging for retail sale. Common methods for preservation and processing of fruit juices include canning, pasteurization, freezing, evaporation and spray drying. Contents 1 Varieties 2 Labeling 3 Health benefits 4 References Varieties Popular juices include but are not limited to apple, orange, grapefruit, pineapple, tomato, mango, carrot, grape, cranberry and pomegranate. It has become increasingly popular to combine a variety of fruits into single juice drinks. Popular blends include cran-apple cranberry and apple and apple and blackcurrant. Prepackaged single fruit juices have lost market share to prepackaged fruit juice combinations. A number of new companies have had considerable success supplying prepackaged fruit juice permutations on the basis of this transition. Innocent and PJ are UK examples; Nudie is an Australian example. Juice bars have also become commonplace across most of the western world and offer similar juices. Most of these juice bars offer freshly made fruit juices and claim that that confers greater health benefit. The rationale for this claim is that once the fruit has been juiced, its antioxidants start to react with oxygen free radicals and so lose their health benefit.citation needed Juice is also commonly found in many cooking recipes around the world. The most popular are lime and lemon juice which help to add a slightly more sour or bitter taste to dishes. Labeling Juice normally has a standard defined level of purity, which is 100% in many countries. In the UK, the term fruit juice can only legally be used to describe a product which is 100% fruit juice, as required by the Fruit Juices and Fruit Nectars England Regulations1 and The Fruit Juices Fruit Nectars Scotland Regulations 2003.2 However, the term juice drink can be used to describe any drink which includes juice, even if the juice content is 1% of the overall volume.3 In the USA, fruit juice can only legally be used to describe a product which is 100% fruit juice. A blend of fruit juices with other ingredients, such as high-fructose corn syrup, is called a juice cocktail or juice drink4 According to the FDA, the term nectar is generally accepted in the U.S. and in international trade for a diluted juice to denote a beverage that contains fruit juice or puree, water, and which may contain sweeteners.5 In New Zealand and possibly others, juice denotes a sweetened fruit extract, whereas nectar denotes a pure fruit or vegetable extractcitation needed. However, fruit juice labels may be misleading, with juice companies actively hiding the actual content. No added sugar is commonly placed on labels, but the products are often made from reconstituted concentrates which function similarly to sugars and other, the naturally occurring fructose is still unhealthy for the consumer. It is difficult for the consumer to know the contents of the concentrates67. Juice does not contain a carbonated beverage, but some carbonated beverages, such as Orangina, are sold with actual fruit juice as an ingredient. Health benefits Juices are often consumed for their health benefits. For example, orange juice is rich in vitamin C, while prune juice is associated with a digestive health benefit. Cranberry juice has long been known to help prevent or even treat bladder infections, and it is now known that a substance in cranberries prevents bacteria from binding to the bladder.8 Fruit juice consumption overall in Europe, Australia, New Zealand and the USA has increased in recent years9, probably due to public perception of juices as a healthy natural source of nutrients and increased public interest in health issues. The perception of fruit juice as equal in health benefit to consumption of fresh fruit has been questioned due mainly to the lack of fiber and the processing they endure. The high amounts of fructose in fruit juice when not consumed with fiber, have been suggested as a contributor to the growing diabetes epidemic in the West.citation needed High-fructose corn syrup, an ingredient of many juice cocktails, has also been linked to the increased incidence of type II diabetes.10 The high consumption of juice is also linked to people putting on extra weight. 11 References Wikimedia Commons has media related to: Juices ^ http://www.food.gov.uk/multimedia/pdfs/fruijuicedraftreg.pdf ^ http://www.food.gov.uk/multimedia/pdfs/draftssifruitjuice.pdf ^ Parents beware: Juice in juice drinks costs up to £34 per litre! ^ The Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21 Sec. 102.33 Beverages that contain fruit or vegetable juice. ^ FDA Juice HACCP Regulation: Questions Answers ^ Canadian Food Inspection Agency - Programs - Nutrition Labelling- Information Letter To Industry - no added sugar ^ Food Standards Australia New Zealand: Results - Part C NCC ^ Drug Watch: Cranberry juice reduces bacteriuria and pyuria ^ Report West Europe Fruit Juice Market Research, Trends, Analysis TOC ^ Sugar, high-fructose corn syrup and type II diabetes ^ Juice alert - National - smh.com.au Retrieved from http://en..org/wiki/Juice Categories: JuiceHidden categories: All articles with statements | Articles with statements since February 2007 | Articles with statements since March 2008 Views Article Discussion this page History Personal tools Log in / create account Navigation Main page Contents Featured content Current events Random article Search Go Search Interaction Community portal Recent changes Contact Donate to Help Toolbox What links here Related changes Upload file Special pages Printable version Permanent link Cite this page Languages العربية Asturianu Català Česky Cymraeg Dansk Deutsch Español Esperanto Français í•œêµì–´ Hrvatski Bahasa Indonesia Ã?slenska Italiano עברית Kinyarwanda Kiswahili Latina Lëtzebuergesch Lietuvių NÄ?huatl Nederlands 日本語 ‪Norsk bokmÃ¥l‬ ‪Norsk nynorsk‬ Polski Português РуÑ?Ñ?кий Simple English SlovenÅ¡Ä?ina СрпÑ?ки / Srpski Suomi Svenska தமிழà¯?
