Biotta

Bugs Bunny had it all figured out...

Thursday, March 11, 2010 by Mitch B

I have a feeling that Bugs Bunny would have been the perfect spokesperson for Biotta Juice's

Carrot Juice. I can picture the commercial now...

First, he would pop out of the hole and tell us about the important connection between beta carotene and vision. Biotta's carrot juice is packed full of Vitamin A and Beta Carotene which is essential to improve and maintain healthy vision.

Second, he would remind us that it is a completely organic juice with no added sugars, coloring or flavors. In fact, the juice is 100% vegetable juice and free of preservatives and caffeine.

Finally, he would trick Elmer Fudd into falling for his own trap... What a Silly Wabbit...

Since that commercial hasn't been created yet, I suppose you'll have to settle for our website, which has more information on our carrot juice, as well as all of our other juices available!

The Benefits of Cutting Out Caffeine! (Part 2)

Wednesday, March 10, 2010 by Mitch B

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!

Here at Biotta Juices, we intentionally created a line of Heart Healthy Juice that would be packed full of vitamins and nutrients that will help the body. It is easy to see why none of our juices* include caffeine. We are dedicated to making our products as good for you as possible. If you want to check out the full selection of the Best Organic Juice on the market, just click here to see our full product line!

*Biotta Energy Drink does contain natural caffeine from Guarana.

Too many options? BLEND them all together!

Tuesday, March 9, 2010 by Mitch B

The only problem you could face going through our product list is trying to decide just which one of our heart healthy juice you would like to incorporate into your diet... For those of you who might struggle with this, why not start off with a delicious vegetable juice cocktail from Biotta?

What's in our vegetable juice cocktail?

Tomatoes- Tomatoes include lycopene and according to Livestrong.com, "Lycopene gives the tomato its red color and has been found to have antioxidant and cancer-preventing properties."
Carrots- "The high traces of beta carotene boost the anti-oxidant properties of carrot juice. It is the beta carotene that converts into vitamin A inside the body. The vitamin A fights to eliminate the free radicals in the body and hence fights cancer." (Home Remedies for You)
Celery- According to Naturalnews.com, celery juice lowers cholesterol, aids in digestion, is a diuretic, an anti inflammatory, lowers blood pressure, as well as many more health benefits!
Beets- Just check out this previous Biotta blog post on the benefits of drinking beet juice, including its heart healthy and cancer fighting qualities.

Potatoes juice and your digestive system...

Monday, March 8, 2010 by Mitch B

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 here!

Body cleanse with beets? It's true!

Sunday, March 7, 2010 by Mitch B

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!

Check out Biottajuices.com for more info about how you can incorporate beet juice into your diet today!

A Very Informative Press Release

Saturday, March 6, 2010 by Mitch B

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! Click here for a full list of Biotta products!

The Benefits of Cutting Out Caffeine! (A multi-part series)

Saturday, March 6, 2010 by Mitch B

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 here!

(In the next "Benefits of Cutting Out Caffeine" post- Heart Rate & Energy)

*Biotta Energy Drink does contain natural caffeine from Guarana.

Benefiting from Sauerkraut Juice!

Monday, March 1, 2010 by Mitch B

Organic sauerkraut juice from Biotta is one of the most healthy beverages you can drink.

Sauerkraut has many important vitamins and nutrients that help the digestive system. According to health advisor Andrew Weil:

"The friendly lactobacilli created in the fermenting process by which cabbage is transformed into sauerkraut aid digestion, increase vitamin levels, produce a variety of beneficial enzymes and promote the growth of healthy flora throughout the digestive tract. "

Just a glass of sauerkraut juice a day can provide many strong health benefits. Also, this organic vegetable juice is high in Vitamin C and very low calorie, making it the perfect beverage for diabetics.

If you're looking to buy sauerkraut juice today or any of the other many varieties of fruit and vegetable juices, check out our website at the link below!

The respiratory benefits of drinking elderberry juice!

Monday, February 22, 2010 by Mitch B

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!

Know the benefits!

Monday, February 22, 2010 by Mitch B

There are so many benefits that can be found in drinking Biotta Juices. Here is a small sampling of the healthy advantages to drinking Biotta.

Potato Juice benefits the stomach! It contains vitamins and minerals that help neutralize stomach acids and make digestion easier. It can also help prevent indigestion and heartburn.

Beet Juice benefits the body in providing many essential vitamins and minerals like folic acid and betacyanin (which help strengthen the body's defense). Beet Juice has also been proven to reduce blood pressure and even increase stamina.

Every single one of our juices is packed full of beneficial ingredients for your health. You can check out the website for more benefits to drinking our organic fruit and vegetable juices!

Hear what our customers are saying...

Sunday, February 21, 2010 by Mitch B

If you're still not completely sold on the idea of shopping Biotta for all of your organic juice needs, then maybe you should check out what some of our satisfied customers and retailers are saying.:

One satisfied customer in Colorado wrote in saying:

"I started drinking Biotta Celery Juice about six weeks ago. I had read about celery juice helping headaches. Eating tons of celery helped a little - then I found Biotta. Wow, what a difference it makes when the juice is from the root. The headaches are subsiding because it's also helping with sinus congestion build-up during my sleep."

As you're reading through all of the stats and figures on our website and this blog, don't think that it's all show... Biotta is the real deal. We have plenty of people telling us that it is doing wonders in their lives and TODAY is the day you should look at making it part of your life!

Are you Drinking Empty Calories?

Friday, February 19, 2010 by Sara Cox

When we think of calories, we think of them coming from the foods we eat. When you have a medium cafe latte with whole milk with breakfast, then a 20 oz. regular soda ad lunch, and a 16 oz. sweet

ened iced tea with lemon mid-day, and glass of wine at dinner, that doesn't sound unreasonable, does it? After all, they are liquid!

Those 4 beverages amont to 800 calories - or 40% of an average 2,000 calorie daily diet. And although they keep you hydrated throughout the day, these 800 calories are EMPTY calories.

Sodas, coffee, tea...there is no nutritional benefit to any of these beverages, yet they seem to pack on the calories. Drinking a 100% organic pure juice, like Biotta Juice, however, will provide you with the same calories, but with the added benefit of vitamins, minerals and other health benefits, like blood pressure lowering properties of our Beet Juice, and soothing an upset stomach like our Potato Juice.

Juice drinks and waters are often enhanced with vitamins and herbs. Although at first glance they seem like a healthy alternative to soda, but how much sugar and artificial flavoring doe they contain?

Biotta Juices are 100% pure - not from concentrate and never diluted. They are packed full of all natural nutrients, and come in 2 sizes of convenient, recyclable glass bottles.

Does Sauerkraut help Canker Sores?

Thursday, February 18, 2010 by Sara Cox

An excerpt from 'The People's Pharmacy' by Joe and Teresa Graedon

Q: My favorite home remedy is sauerkraut for canker sores. If I feel one coming on, I put a wad of chopped sauerkraut on the area, hold it there for a minute, then chew it and swallow. I do this three or four times a day for 2-3 days. At least 95% of the time, the sore disappears. For me, that is a miracle, since I have been plagued for many years.

A: Canker sores (aphthous ulcers) are mysterious. Trauma to the mouth from sharp food can trigger a sore. So can immune suppression (chemotherapy) or a deficiency of folic acid, vitamin B-12 and iron.

Long ago, we heard about a 1930's canker-sore remedy. A dentist recommended swishing sauerkraut juice serveral times a day, swallowing about a tablespoon. Perhaps the bacteria that ferment cabbage into sauerkraut provide helpful nutrients.

As a sufferer of canker sores, myself, I can relate to this as a miracle! Many things seem to cause mine - improper eating, lack of sleep and exercise, and of course, those times when the toothbrush slips right into your cheek. And I thought Sauerkraut Juice was just good for digestion -- watch out canker sores!

Get Healthy as a Family

Wednesday, February 17, 2010 by Sara Cox

Have fruits and vegetables become a thing of the past?

One of today’s fastest growing problems is childhood obesity. Why are so many kids packing on pounds? For the same reasons adults are: too many calories and too little exercise. "Adults are passing on their unhealthy habits to the next generation," says Colleen Thompson, a dietitian and coauthor of Overcoming Childhood Obesity (Bull, 2003). "Childhood obesity is really a family issue. To fix things, the whole family has to change." A recent study of 3,000 kids ages 4 to 24 months found that many of the negative eating patterns plaguing adults are affecting children as early as infancy. Not only was fruit and vegetable consumption low, but french fries were the most popular choice of toddlers. Moreover, 40 percent of 7-month-olds and 60 percent of 1-year-olds had candy or dessert at least once a day.

Adopt a Healthier Lifestyle
Some basic things you can do to adopt a healthy lifestyle - for both you and your kids:

1. Exercise. Let your kids see you exercise. Exercise with your kids.
2. Eat dinner as a family. Not only can you enjoy some quality time, but eating together helps you know what your kids are actually eating.
3. Control portions - both for you and your kids. Just becuase you are the parent, doesn't mean you need to eat 2-3 times as much as the kids. Don't go back for seconds. Kids see that and think that is what they are supposed to do.
4. Model healthy behaviors. You can't expect your kids to do things that you wouldn't do yourself. Turn off the tv - eat your fruits and vegetables!
5. Include healthy snacks and drinks - like Biotta 100% pure organic fruit and vegetable juices. This is a great way to increase energy, enjoy a wholesome snack, and get your daily requirements of fruits and vegetables!

Why do we use glass bottles?

Friday, February 12, 2010 by Mitch B

Many people have written in asking why we insist on using glass bottles to package our juices. We have a couple of answers for that question.

One is for flavor. When you buy sauerkraut juice or potato juice or any of our other juices, you want it tasting fresh, right? When juices are packaged in plastic containers, the flavor can slowly fade out over time. When using glass, it retains full flavor from the day it's packaged until the day you open it up!

Another reason is because glass bottles are completely tasteless. According to a 2004 study by the Karmasin Institute for Motivational Research in Vienna, Austria, 72% of consumers find glass ideal packaging for organic products. They find glass to be hygienic, appetizing, recyclable, tasteless and practical.

So there you have it. At Biotta, we are about quality, and glass bottles are guaranteed to give you the best quality juice!

The first time I tried the beet juice, something incredible happended. I was very tired, but after about 20-30 minutes, i felt revived . I have had beet juice before, but there must be something special in this brand of beet root. I gave some to my husband without telling him how it made me feel. He also commented after by asking, "what kind of juice was that ??" I purchase it for my friends for gifts, and have also tried the celery and carrot juice as well. I am hooked and want to be a distributor .
