Antioxidants Are They In The Juice You Drink
We had a nutrition company hire a third party lab to test the so called antioxidant rich juices on the market. The results are astounding.
Companies are popping up everywhere trying to market the latest berry that people have been consuming forever and hype it up for consumers. These fruits come from all over the world, Asia, South America, and even Alaska. Most of these companies claim their juice is an antioxidant giant and have magic powers. We hired Brunswick Labs, to do the scientific studies on these juices using both ORAC and FRAP tests.
We added grape juice into the mix to spice up the results and see what would happen. Not to mention many of these companies use grape juice as their main ingredient. You may laugh or cry when you find out the results. Here are some of the statements of some of the juices:
MonaVie claims that the acai berry used in their juice is one of the worlds top super foods and is rich in antioxidants. The levels of antioxidants in the acai berry from Brazil versus what is in Mona Vies juice are quite different.
Kyani refers to their juice as having an unmatched antioxidant superpower. Xango claims its juice product contains powerful antioxidants. Tahitian Noni claims its juice is one of the worlds great super-antioxidants. FreeLife claims you can protect yourself from the constant attack of Free Radicals by drinking GoChi juice.
The FRAP examination showed that grape juice had more antioxidants per serving than all but two of the magic juices.
Here are the results from the ORAC and FRAP tests: The first score is the ORAC score followed by the FRAP. Welchs Grape Juice scored 2734 and 245, while Mona Vie came in at 2220 and 1572. Pharmanexs G3 product reported 1658 and 2648 and Xango scored one of the lowest at 947 and 761. FreeLifes Gochi 888 and 641 with Kyani Sunrise scored a 769 in ORAC and a 1271. Exfuze, who uses extracts from fruits around the world, had one of the lowest scores at 400 and 174.
Why is this so significant? These magic juices are not a very good antioxidant value for your dollar spent. A daily average serving of MonaVie Acai juice, for example, costs about $4.60 regular price, while an eight-ounce serving of WelchsGrape Juice costs about $.50. And, according to the ORAC and FRAP tests, grape juice provides more antioxidants to protect against free radicals than MonaVie Acai Juice.
A business opportunity can only be as good as the product that they sell. If you do not have a product that is truly proven then you are selling nothing but a pyramid. It is this reason why there is so much attrition in the MLM industry. Without a proven product it will not last and they must open up new countries to constantly keep the flow going
If the exotic juices are not a good source for antioxidants but their raw fruits are what should you do? Eat them right from the source would be great if you could. One company Yoli has found out a way to freeze dry the nutrients and put them into a blast cap. Thus, you never have to worry about the nutrients dying in water. Not to mention there is no pasteurization used. You place the blast cap on top of a bottle and simply press and presto.
These blast caps cost significantly less too. They have way more active ingredients too. Any company who has nutrients sitting in water must preserve them somehow and is often toxic when they do. The bottom line is nutrients do not survive after being boiled or sit in water for a long period of time. - 17269
