Health Juices
There are plenty of health juices on the market to take a look at that are not organic but are considered to be health juices, such as, Himalayan Goji Juice. So what is in a bottle of Himalayan Goji Juice? Reconstituted goji juice, grape – pear – apple juice concentrate, pear puree and natural flavor, with sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate added to maintain freshness. First question would be, what is reconstituted goji juice? By definition it means – To provide with a new structure, to constitute again; reconstruct; recompose. Now the other question is what is a concentrated juice, well it has gone thru a process to remove any solids in the juice, but it turns out that those solids are the storehouse for many nutrients.
Cloudy apple juices contain much more antioxidant than clear apple juice.

Zrii does not list its nutritional label on their website. Zrii’s featured ingredients – Amalaki, Ginger, Turmeric, Tulsi, Schizandra, Jujube and Haritaki but they do not even tell you about the primary ingredients being pear, raspberry and pomegranate juices. Why would a company not reveal its label on its website?
So would you buy any of these juices? 100% Fruit juice is good for you because they offer a variety of nutrients found naturally in fruits. Unfortunately alot of the health juices/health drinks on the market today are from concentrate and have preservatives. Check the labels on the so called health juices before you buy.
