Date: August 22, 2011 08:44PM Hi all,
I bought Acai organic 100 % juice and POM Wonderful 100% Pomegranate Juice at Costco. It's 100 % juice and what's the difference between these 100% juice and home-made juice? Thank you very much. Re: 100% juice?

Date: August 22, 2011 09:09PM ENZYMES. Bottled juices are pasteurized so all enzymes are killed. Plus vitamins are lost and minerals made less (or not) bio-available to the body. Plus (at least to me) the bottled pomegranate juice tastes NASTY. Fresh will always trump canned or bottled! Re: 100% juice?

Enzymes. They are destroyed in anything in a bottle. Re: 100% juice?

But most bottled juices contain preservatives and other compounds to preserve the juice. You'd want to go with fresh where-ever possible. [www.vegankingdom.co.uk] Re: 100% juice?

Date: August 23, 2011 08:40PM Well, juice you make at home is fresh and raw while anything bottled is cooked.
Who knows how clean the facility that makes that juice is too, or what the machinery is made of (plastics with BPA, etc). Add to that the fact that a certain level of insect parts and rodent feces is "OK" to have in processed foods and... Yucky. Re: 100% juice?

When I speak of something bottled, I really mean glass. Of course they sometimes will sell fresh-squeezed orange juice in jugs but those are not bottles. Just curious if you have encountered truly raw juice in a bottle and what brand is it? (I am obviously not including kombucha as a juice and I know it's raw...) Re: 100% juice?

Date: August 23, 2011 09:52PM Most types of pasteurization do kill enzymes, and all this means is that other enzyme-dependent nutrients will be less bioavailable. This has nothing to do with Enzyme Digestion Theory, or whatever it's called. It's a matter of dead, old food vs. fresh food; for me, flavor is the arbiter with this one, and fresh juice just tastes better! Re: 100% juice?

Yep, I've gotten sick so many times after drinking processed things I'll never touched another bottled juice again. Fresh or none at all, I say. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
