- Thereafter, most of the water from the beverage are removed to obtain a concentrate which was then frozen
- Directly at the factory, this concentrate is thawed, diluted with water and pasteurized at a temperature of over 100 degrees C
AS A RESULT destroyed all pectin, lost all antioxidant properties.
The loss of vitamins is also quite large, for example, vitamin C is quickly destroyed by the heat and keep the whole thing under the pasteurization is simply impossible.
However, manufacturers, seeking to recover as much as possible the nutritional value of the product, further enrich it with vitamins, and both chemical and natural origin.
Manufacturers juices go to the trick and generously added to the juice:
- Vitamins (mostly artificial);
- Preservatives (to further extend the shelf life);
- Flavors (to make delicious juice)
. - Sugar
