 Some products made primarily with apple juice show no apples at all on the front label, instead depicting pomegranates and blueberries while claiming "100% juice!" in big letters. "This misleads consumers into thinking these products are one hundred percent pomegranate juice," explained Adams, "When in fact, they may only be five or ten percent pomegranate juice."
Some pomegranate juice products were found to be made with high fructose corn syrup or sugar. These were blended with water, then color enhanced with purple carrot extract to make them appear like more substantial juice products. |
| While pictures on the front of the juice products show pomegranates and blueberries, the juice inside the bottle is often little more than apple and grape juice, said Mike Adams, nutrition author and producer of the free online consumer guide. Consumers can view the guide online at www.NewsTarget.com
The consumer shopping guide covers both pomegranate and blueberry juices, and it reviews nearly a dozen top brands to show which ones are telling the truth about their products vs. which ones are deceiving consumers with dishonest labeling. |

 CD audio course introducing the system of "Juice Feasting" to listeners. juice Feasting is a powerful nutritional protocol for disease prevention and reversal that involves making and drinking large quantities of delicious, raw produce juices using nothing more than a blender and a nut milk bag. It's a system that delivers thousands of healing phytonutrients (plant medicines) to the body's cells on a daily basis. |
| Now, they are both "Juice Feasters," meaning they drink around five quarts of raw, freshly-made vegetable and fruit juices on a daily basis. "I'm astonished and excited about the health benefits I'm personally experiencing from juice Feasting," said Mike Adams, the Health Ranger. "This is a nutritional protocol that I'm recommending to everyone. I believe it is the cure for degenerative disease that we've all been looking for. |

 If this is true, it would mean that high-temperature juice comes into contact with the plastic container, and this could be an opportunity for the release of bisphenol-A.
However, I am not a beverage production engineer, and I'm not familiar with the exact process used by juice bottling companies. In any case, regardless of the above, the safest containers are glass because they don't emit any bisphenol-A chemicals whatsoever. In fact, there's nothing harmful in glass, and it's the container of choice for health-conscious consumers.
Of course, glass breaks easily, and it's heavy. |

#8: What are the healthiest fruit juices, and what are they good for?
Pomegranate: Anti-cancer, protects the heart and cardiovascular system
Blueberry: Lowers high cholesterol, protects the nervous system from oxidative damage (many people can eliminate statin drugs by eating more blueberries)
Acai: Anti-cancer, reduces digestive cancer risk, supports healthy nervous system function
Noni: Extremely potent anti-cancer, immune-boosting fruit (tastes terrible, though, if it's real)
Cherry: Anti-inflammatory. |
| There are likely pesticide residues in the non-organic juice products. Pesticides aren't listed on the ingredients label, but they're nonetheless present. However, the benefits of consuming these superfruits far outweighs the health effects of trace pesticide consumption, in my opinion, so from a personal perspective, you're still protecting your health with these juice products even if you consume some pesticide residues. For the record, I do not support pesticide use in agriculture and I believe that consumers should buy organic products whenever possible.

| Thus, if people are drinking pomegranate juice to help prevent prostate cancer, doesn't it seem contradictory that the juice would be packaged in plastic containers believed to contribute to prostate cancer?
The real answer, in my educated opinion, is found in the heat factor. Plastic releases more chemicals when it is heated. As a result, cooking foods in plastic may be extremely hazardous to your health, but eating liquids stored in cold plastic may, in fact, only expose you to a tiny fraction of the same chemicals. |

| These were blended with water, then color enhanced with purple carrot extract to make them appear like more substantial juice products. One was found to be nearly three-fourths sugar water, containing only about 25 percent actual fruit juice.
Surprisingly, one popular brand owned by Coca-Cola (Odwalla) performed very well in this consumer guide review, earning four out of five stars for its use of honest ingredients and product labeling. |

 While there are some quality products on the market, many of them are gimmicks made mostly of water and containing very little aloe vera juice. In fact, did you know it's perfectly legal for an aloe vera juice product to claim "Made with 100% Aloe Vera" on the front of the bottle when, in reality, it's made from 99% water and only 1% aloe vera juice? That's why you see so many aloe vera juice products using thickeners on the ingredients label. They contain only a small amount of aloe vera juice, and they have to thicken it up to make it resemble a gel. |

| Can juice products cure my cancer?
Probably not by themselves. Beating cancer with nutrition almost always requires these things:
Daily consumption of raw plants from the allium family (garlic is best)
Daily consumption of raw cruciferous vegetables (like broccoli)
Massive intake of vitamin D (under supervision of a naturopath)
Daily consumption of raw, freshly blended fruit and vegetable juices (includ beet, ginger, kale and all the superfruits you can find... |

 You can drink unlimited quantities of all the fresh, delicious juice you want!
This provides every nutritional element needed for human consumption, including plenty of protein. (Raw vegetables are loaded with protein. It's only when you cook them that the protein is destroyed.) Plus, it delivers literally thousands of disease reversing phytonutrients, including many that are well documented to reverse cancers, diabetes, heart disease, obesity, arthritis and many other conditions. |

 A wide variety of fruit juices are available, but check the nutrition labels carefully: Many contain as little as 10 percent real fruit juice. If the juice isn't labeled 100 percent fruit juice, it probably contains a high percentage of water and sugar, usually in the form of corn syrup. Avoid these fruit juices if you're trying to lose weight. Look for calcium-fortified orange juice, to help meet your daily calcium requirement. Remember that fruit juice doesn't contain the fiber that fresh fruit does, so it won't fill you up as much as fresh fruit. |

Are the health benefits of pomegranate really so miraculous?
Yes they are. If the drug companies had come up with this, they'd call it a miracle drug and try to get it prescribed to everyone. But it's from nature, not a drug company, so it can't be patented, marketed and sold at ridiculous profits. That's why this genuine natural medicine is only a couple of bucks per serving (or dose). |

| It's the first thing I reach for in the morning, and the last sip I take before going to bed. juice Feasting has given me more time, better health, greatly improved brain function and the confidence in knowing that I'm eating the very best diet I can possibly eat.
Some might call it a raw foods diet, or a raw food vegan diet. I think those terms can freak people out. I don't consider myself a vegan, since I sometimes eat cooked fish. And I don't consider myself a full-time raw foodist, since I eat one cooked meal a day. |

| I'm drinking five quarts of juice a day, which means I'm drinking thousands of phytonutrients from about five pounds of fresh produce every single day. That means I'm bathing my body's cells in the most powerful disease reversing medicine in the universe. While the USDA recommends that Americans get 3 servings a day of vegetables (and that can include dead, cooked or pasteurized vegetables), I'm getting an incredible TEN servings a day (at least!) of RAW, fresh vegetables. And on top of that, I'm getting at least FIVE servings a day of raw, fresh berries and disease-reversing fruits. |

 Antibiotics were also used less in both the extract and the juice group, compared with the placebo group.
Cranberry extracts are less expensive than cranberry juice. Another advantage of the extracts is the concern that the oxalates in cranberry juice could contribute to kidney stone formation. While logical, no studies have yet demonstrated an increase in kidney stones after drinking cranberry juice.
Cranberry extracts can also be found in numerous combination herbal/nutritional formulations along with uva-ursi, pipsissewa, Oregon grape root, marshmallow root, buchu, vitamin C, and others. |

Why is this important? Because a tidal wave of new research published in the last three years is pointing to the astonishing reality that plant medicines prevent, reverse and CURE chronic degenerative disease. |
