Continuing in the "Benefits of Cutting Out Caffeine" miniseries, today's topic is SKIN!
Who would have thought that caffeine could have a very rough impact on your skin? I stumbled across this clipping - an excerpt from Men's Health recently - and found what it had to say to be very interesting.
Like I've said in previous posts, there is a reason that none of Biotta's organic vegetable or fruit juices* includes caffeine. There are serious benefits that come from either minimizing our caffeine intake or cutting caffeine out of your diet completely! Start taking care of your skin today and
order a bottle of Biotta Juice!

So yesterday, I talked about putting down the empty calories/sugar-laden soda and replace it with Biotta's vitamin and mineral-rich vegetable juices. Here is some more information in support of that - even if you are drinking DIET soda:
Registered dietitian Patti Milligan recently did an
interview with an Alabama news station where she gave her expert opinion on drinking healthy beverages.
While most people think that switching to diet soda is the biggest step to losing weight, Patti disagrees. "The amount of chemicals in diet soda really play havoc with the metabolic furnace - which is your liver. It does not crank up metabolism," Milligan explained.
The truth is, if you want to move toward a healthier diet, you're going to have to drink more nutritious beverages throughout the day. She listed five drinks to consider switching to. One of the juices she emphasized the most-
Beet Juice!
"The compounds in [beet juice] are related to nitrates and they seem to help convert in the body a better utilization of our oxygen," Milligan said.
We are so excited to see beet juice getting the love it deserves! We have known for years just how much beet juice benefits the body's immune system and circulatory system... When are you going to find out for yourself?

What do most people think of when they think of sauerkraut? Probably German food and bratwurst? Although those may be common things to associate sauerkraut with, all of us here at
Biotta believe it's about time to start looking into the many health benefits that come from drinking sauerkraut juice!
Sauerkraut is actually one of the best foods when it comes to helping aid your digestive system. According to
Sauerkraut.com, "Sauerkraut is one of the few foods that contain the bacterium Lactobacilli plantarum.
L. planatarum is a very dominant strain of healthful bacteria which helps your digestive system."
Organic Sauerkraut Juice also works as an immune booster! "
Sauerkraut contains phytochemicals which are created during the fermentation process. These naturally occurring, beneficial
by-products of sauerkraut help boost the immune system, which leads to a decrease in a number of health problems."

In the last "Cutting Out Caffeine" post, I brought forth some of the major
concerns about the effects that caffeine has on the body's ability to absorb important vitamins and minerals. Today, I would like to switch the focus to a couple other very important health problem that caffeine poses- heart rate and energy.
Caffeine is a stimulant. According to Dr. Dan Rutherford from
Netdoctor.co.uk,
"Caffeine overstimulates the central nervous system, increasing your heart rate and blood pressure." Although studies have not concluded that caffeine causes long term problems for everyone, there is no denying that it can lead to those problems in some.
One of the most popular uses for caffeine-filled drinks is for an energy boost. It has an impact on the body's energy levels" Dr. Rutherford claims,
"Following the initial energy surge, your levels fall due to the lowering of blood sugar." Caffeine actually causes adverse effects!

Potatoes are delicious. You can do so many things with them and they are always so good! However, it seems like one very important aspect of the potato is always overlooked-
Potato Juice!
Scientists have long looked at potato juice as one of the best remedies for digestive problems and one of the best ways to keep your digestive system going strong and healthy!
Studies have shown that the juice benefits the following areas:
- If you are suffering from constipation, you should drink half a cup of potato juice in the morning.
- Helps heal intestinal ulcers
- Helps reduce the pain of people suffering from Rheumatism and Gout
- Also, it helps to clear up patches of eczema (especially when mixed with some of Biotta's Carrot Juice!)
Like all of our other organic juices, our
potato juice contains no caffeine and no added sugar! It is currently available in a 16.9 oz. bottle and you can find out where to order it by clicking

Beet juice has always been referred to as a cleansing juice. It helps to clean out everything from your kidneys to your blood and your liver. Beet juice benefits your blood pressure as well! Many studies believe that beet juice helps to lower blood pressure when drank regularly.
Did you know that drinking beet juice is actually more beneficial than eating the beet itself? Fact! When you eat the beet, the fibers you ingest actually slow down the effect of the juice and minimize its impact. But when you drink the fresh juice, you receive the maximum benefits!

I stumbled upon this
press release today put out by PR Log... It is titled: "Beat Heart Attack & Hypertension with Miracle Juice" The book
Miracle Juicing breaks down many of the major benefits of drinking fruit and vegetable juice.
Here is a small sampling of the juicing benefits they listed in the press release:
- Juices are loaded with vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients that are easily assimilated within fifteen minutes of drinking. The juice is quickly distributed throughout the body to build, heal, repair and restore optimum health.
- Juices cleanse the blood, which is the body’s lifeline. Clean blood loaded with nutrients will ensure a healthy long life.
- Juicing helps to pre-digest food so that it can be easily absorbed by the body.
- Juicing removes indigestible fiber. If a carrot is eaten, one may only get 1% of the beta-carotene, but if it's juiced, 100% of the important beta-carotene will be assimilated.
- Vegetable and fruit juicing helps to reduce cholesterol, dissolves clogged arteries, reduces the risk of heart attack, reduces high blood pressure, dissolves kidney stones, cleanses the liver, prevents cancers, increases energy and other health benefits.
These benefits exist in all of Biotta's convenient, organic vegetable and fruit juices. All of our heart healthy juices are 100% juice with no added flavors or colors!

This is the first part of a multi-segment series on the health benefits of cutting caffeine out of your diet.
As you may know,
all* of Biotta's organic vegetable juice, fruit juice, and blends are 100% caffeine free! We are dedicated to providing the most healthy juice possible and we know that cutting caffeine is an easy starting point...
Fact #1: Caffeine can prevent your body from absorbing vitamins and minerals.
According to Dr. Dan Rutherford on
NetDoctor.co.uk, "[Caffeine] can increase the excretion of vitamins and minerals from the body, so you won't get the full benefits of healthy foods."
When you fill your diet with caffeinated drinks, you are making it more difficult for your body to use all the vitamins and minerals you ingest every day.
Think about it, for every cup of coffee or soda you drink, you can easily be canceling out that healthy breakfast/lunch/dinner you tried to have. And according to Dr. Rutherford, it can take up to 18 hours for caffeine to completely leave your system, meaning it is with you for the entire day.
Like I mentioned earlier, every one* of Biotta's juices is caffeine free. For more nutrition information on our
elderberry juice,
beet juice, or any of our other juices, check out Products page

(In the next "Benefits of Cutting Out Caffeine" post- Heart Rate & Energy)*Biotta Energy Drink does contain natural caffeine from Guarana.

I hate getting sick. It seems like every winter I'm struck with it all- a cold, the flu, a sinus infection... you name it, I've had it. And ever since I had a severe respiratory tract infection a few years ago, I've always suffered from congestion and coughs.
After reading an
article from Natural-HomeRemedies, it became clear to me how easy (and delicious) it can be to attack these problems in the future: Elderberry Juice.
The benefits of elderberry juice are countless, but the respiratory related ones are fascinating.
According to Natural-HomeRemedies:
"When the juice is consumed, the anti-inflammatory properties of the juice work to reduce the amount of mucus secreted. It drains the mucus out of the body, thereby reducing the signs of nasal congestion."
Whether you're trying to prevent getting sick or trying to get over something, elderberry juice is effective. While other juices may claim to help against respiratory problems,
Biotta's elderberry juice is the only 100% natural juice that you'll find!

I was no different than most kids growing up. When my mom told me that I needed to eat my vegetables before I could leave the table, I scowled at her and forced them down... one by one. At that point in my life, I could not see the benefits that could come from them.
Funny how things change when you grow up... In just a quick glance over
Biotta's fresh juices, you can see that they have a wide selection of vegetable juices that are both nutritious and delicious.
Biotta offers healthy juices made from carrots, celery, sauerkraut (cabbage), and beets. Studies have been released about the health benefits of each of these amazing vegetables!
