Carrot Juice Health

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!

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.

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 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!

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.

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!

One could make a case that our vision is the most important of our five senses.  Without the ability to see clearly, we would be lost in nearly every day-to-day task.  So you may wonder what we can do to take care of our vision and help keep it top-notch...? The answer: Vitamin A!  Where can you get Vitamin A? Carrot Juice!

Biotta's fresh juices all contain healthy vitamins and minerals, essential to your body.  However, Biotta Carrot Juice benefits the eyes tremendously with its high volume of Vitamin A.  Carrot juice doesn't just benefit the eyes, it has also been proven to improve skin pigment as well!

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.

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. sweetened 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.

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.

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.
