Organic Carrot Juice

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.

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!

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.

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!

Looking for more benefits from vegetable juices?  Check out the vegetable juice section on Biotta's website.

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.

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.
