Biotta

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 .

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!

It seems like every few months my husband and I renew our commitment to eating healthy, for us and our kids.  It is so easy to fall into the trappings of convenient fast-food and "kid-food", such as chicken nuggets, hot dogs, and macaroni and cheese.  I know deep down, that I can do better than that for my family.

We are all becoming more environmentally conscious these days.  "Green" seems to be the latest buzz word.  My family has been recycling for the past year or so and it amazes us how much we fill up our recycling bin, as opposed to our regular trash bin.  It does make me feel good to know I am doing something so simple, yet helpful to the Earth.  Also, it is a great lesson and habit for my children.

Biotta Organic Juices is another organization that is environmentally conscious.  Biotta sells unusable by-products from the processing of their fruits and vegetables to farmers for use as organic animal pomace.  Biotta also uses only glass bottles.  This not only allows for full retention of flavor, but for recycling of their bottles, as well.  Even the labels are printed on FSC certified paper, in the effort to meet the social, economic, and ecological needs of present and future generations.

Biotta not only makes delicious fresh juices, but is benefiting our environment at the same time.  Learn more about Biotta today!

We hear more and more about the benefits of "going organic".  Grocery stores seem to continue to increase their organic products and more organic markets are popping up. 

Let's take a look at the benefits of organic juices.  Organically grown fruits and vegetables have not been sprayed with pesticides, herbicides, or other chemicals.  It is easy to believe that when we rinse our fruits and vegetables they remove any harmful chemicals, but that is not the case.  Chemicals can easily absorb through the fragile skin of many varieties of conventionally grown produce.

All Biotta organic juices are made from naturally grown fruits and vegetables.  The quality of the produce is the nutritional value of their juices.

The more I learn about beets, the more benefits I see that they have.  Beet juice is a powerful cleanser of the blood, kidneys, and liver.  It has a long history of being a "cleansing juice".  Other benefits are that is has high levels of anti-carcinogens and very high carotenoid content, while being low in fat and an excellent source of folic acid.  Recent studies even show that just two cups of beet juice a day may reduce blood pressure (WebMD, Feb 8, 2008).

Biotta has been committed to organic farming since 1951.  It harvests its fruits and vegetables from healthy, living soil and got on the organic bandwagon many years before organic became popular.  Biotta uses first-class raw products and careful processing as the key to all of Biotta fresh juices.  All of the juices are 100% pure, organic, natural juices that are not made from concentrate or diluted with water.

And where did that name come from?  "Bio" means organic in German.  Tagerwilen is the village in Switzerland where our juices are produced.  Put those two together and you get Biotta, an organic Swiss company and brand.

Beets are amazing—the list of heart-healthy benefits keeps growing.  I read an article—actually  more like a Question and Answer column*—where someone had written in and asked if there were any natural ways to lower blood pressure.  This person was taking three drugs for hypertension and high cholesterol, and wanted to know if there were any healthy, organic products that could help lower her blood pressure and cholesterol.

The answer?  Beets. 

Beets are Heart-Healthy …
We’ve talked about the benefits of beets and beet juice many times because research and studies have proven them to be true.  According to this article, beets contain powerful compounds that “reduce blood pressure, promote bile flow, ease digestive disorders, improve heart disease, lower cholesterol and prevent cancer.*”

Another benefit of beets and beet juice is that it reduces the risk for blood clots.  According to the same article*, the anti-platelet action of beets reduces the risk for blood clots by dissolving inorganic calcium that can clog up the blood vessels.  In fact, “beets can lower total cholesterol and triglycerides by 30 percent and 40 percent.*”  And a 2008 study in Hypertension found that drinking two cups of beetroot juice reduced blood pressure by up to 10 points, with no major side effects.*

… and Cancer-Fighting!
And then there’s potential cancer-fighting benefits.  Beets contain a compound called betacyanin, which is a powerful cancer fighter, especially when it comes to colon cancer.  Beets may also “negate the effects of eating processed meats laden with dangerous nitrosamines, which may help reduce the potential for stomach cancer.*”

And, if you think we are gangbusters over beets and beet juice, check out http://www.lovebeetroot.co.uk.  It’s a whole website devoted exclusively to the wonders of beets.  You can find information, recipes, the history of beetroot, and fast facts.**

I recently read an interesting and informative article on making New Year’s resolutions.  Entitled “Make realistic resolutions for 2010,” the article, written by Jessica Smith, presents a doable approach to New Year’s resolutions.* 

Since fitness is often in the top five resolutions people make, it’s important to be realistic in your goals.  The article talks about exercise—types, locations and duration.  The rest of the article deals with weight management, weight loss and proper nutrition.  It presents a sensible approach to this subject, and includes these tips for developing realistic nutritional goals:

1. Eat more fruits and vegetables.  Interesting that this should be number one on her list.  What better way to get your fruits and vegetables than with Biotta’s 100% all-natural juices?
2. Eat more whole grains and high-fiber foods.
3. Eat balanced meals that contain a healthy carbohydrate, lean protein, healthy fat, and a fruit or veggie.  (Fruits and veggies again?  Think Biotta!)
4. Eat breakfast (Biotta Breakfast Drink?)
5. Don’t skip meals.
6. Drink more water.
7. Limit high-fat foods and fried or greasy foods.
8. Limit fast food.
9. Plan your meals before you go grocery shopping.
10. Pack quick, healthy lunches and snacks to bring to work (Biotta’s single serving bottles are perfect on-the-go).
11. Try eating 4-6 small meals or snacks per day.
12. Practice eating slowly.  Stop when you are comfortably satisfied.*

Biotta’s organic juices fit perfectly in a healthy diet regimen.  If eating and feeling healthier is on your New Year’s resolution list, make sure Biotta juices are a part of your plan.

Sunday, December 27, the San Francisco Chronicle ran a story entitled “Grocery store brands come out on top.”  Written by Amanda Gold, the article detailed research she had done in preparation for a local TV news segment where the subject was advertised brands of food versus grocery store brands, and how they stacked up. *

Local chefs, cookbook authors and food professionals tested products blind, and rated them based on texture, appearance and taste.  The panel of judges considered foods in many categories: snacks, beverages, dairy, fruits and vegetables, breakfast, baked goods, lunch and dinner, sweet and treats, and condiments. Of the vegetable juices they rated, Biotta’s Organic Vegetable Juice Cocktail was the winner.

A well-balanced blend, our Vegetable Juice Cocktail contains several vital nutrients from freshly gathered organic vegetables: tomatoes, carrots, celeriac and beetroots.  It has a rich tomato base.  Tomatoes contain natural lycopene (a phyto-nutrient) for improved cell function and cell metabolism compromised by environmental influences.  Biotta Vegetable Juice Cocktail is low in calories and contains large amounts of natural vitamin C.

This broad exposure for Biotta juices is the latest in a line of impressive media attention.  Biotta’s first national exposure came last April, when Whoopi Goldberg mentioned Biotta’s all-natural juices on The View.  Recently, our products have also been featured in Shape, OK! and Life & Style magazines, among others.  Be on the lookout in your favorite publications for more information on Biotta natural organic juices. 

More than ever before, people want all-natural, organic juices that are as delicious as they are good for them.  Biotta juices fit into today’s active lifestyle perfectly.  Biotta organic juices provide a unique taste experience through all-natural whole fruits and vegetables, grown and harvested for optimum quality, then minimally processed to ensure great taste and high nutritional value.

Every day, we field questions about our Biotta juices—ingredients, potential health benefits, our proprietary manufacturing process, distribution, etc.  We thought that, if a few people are asking these questions, then perhaps many of you would be interested in the answers as well.  When you see our blog featuring The Juice – Your Questions Answered, you’ll know we are answering consumer questions about our 100% organic juices that may be relevant to you.

QUESTION:
I see sugar as one of the ingredients of your Elderberry Juice and Breakfast Juice.  Do your juices include added sugar?

ANSWER:
Elderberry juice is the only juice where we add sugar—organic cane sugar.  We add it because the elderberry has a very strong, bitter taste without the added sugar.  Elderberry Juice has 34 g of sugar in total; 10.5 g are naturally occurring, and 23.5g are added.

Our Breakfast Juice also lists 22.5g sugar, but all of the sugar content is naturally occurring from the ingredients of the product; there is no sugar added.  Our vegetable juices also contain sugar, but they are all naturally occurring.

Studies continue to show the benefits of organic products.  In the Fall issue of The Organic Report, the News & Trends section features an article on this subject.  It examines recent findings of a study conducted by the University of Aix-Marseille in France, commissioned by the French agency for Food Safety. 

The study confirmed “…the high nutritional quality and safety of food produced using organic practices.”*  The benefits include more dry matter, minerals and antioxidant micronutrients than non-organic counterparts.  In addition, the study showed that 100% organic foods have “…significantly lower amounts of nitrates and residues of toxic chemical pesticides, fungicides and herbicide.”*

Biotta Juices – All-Natural. 100% Organic
What do we mean when we say our juices are 100% organic?  Biotta uses only organic farming for all our fruits and vegetables.  For more than 50 years, we’ve been dedicated to producing top-quality organic juices from fruits and vegetables that are fresh from the field to the bottle.  Over the years, Biotta has farmed more than 1,700 acres of chemical-free, fertilizer-free, and toxic-free land.

But, production processes also have a direct influence on the quality of a juice.  The basic rule is: the fewer steps in the production and the lower the processing temperature, the higher the nutritional value of the juice.  Biotta extracts juice from healthy, field/vine-ripened fruits and vegetables.  Competitors often store vegetable juices in tanks to be bottled as needed.  The result is that these juices are repeatedly heated and the quality is diminished.  Biotta bottles our juices immediately after extracting the juice.

And Biotta juices are never reconstituted from concentrates, and no artificial additives (preservatives, vitamins) are used.  Biotta juices are 100% organic, fresh from the field to the bottle.  Great care is taken throughout the growing and production processes to ensure our customers receive the freshest juices available on the market.

I keep reading more and more about the benefits of elderberries.  In the Thursday, December 10 edition of the Indianapolis Star, two articles mention elderberry as an effective weapon to keep you healthy and to help you regain your health when you are ill.

In “Feeling Lousy?  These ideas may get you back in the pink,” author Shari Rudavsky talks about the research that backs up claims for therapies to try when you are ill.  One of the things she mentions is taking elderberry at the first sign of cold or flu.*

In the same issue, another article entitled “Alternatives: Experts Wary” talks about alternative therapies, what the Center for Disease Control and Prevention does and does not endorse, and what you can do to prevent and treat the flu.  The Star asked a number of local experts for their opinions.  Products with elderberry in them ranked high on the list.  That’s because, “…unlike other alternative products, elderberry has performed well in double-blind placebo-controlled studies that have shown that it can shorten the duration of the flu.  These studies, many done on a liquid extract of elderberry called Sambucol, found that elderberry worked best when taken with the onset of symptoms.”**

An article entitled “Are these fruit products as super as they claim?” looks skeptically on some of the newer, more “exotic” fruits, such as acai, goji, mangosteen, and maqui.  But, even this article admits that “…it’s a good idea to try to get more antioxidants into your diet.”***  That’s where the elderberry comes in.  “In general,” explains the article, “darker fruits and vegetables … have higher contents of …naturally occurring chemicals, called phytochemicals, that give them color.  More phytochemicals usually means a higher antioxidant content.”***

In previous posts (About the Elderberry-12/1/09 and The Benefits of Elderberry Juice-12/4/09), we’ve examined the ways elderberry juice can help boost your immune system, ease the strain on the respiratory system, and even help lower cholesterol.  Biotta’s Elderberry Juice is made from freshly gathered, sun-ripened organic elderberries and is available in an 8.4 fl. oz. recyclable glass bottle.
