Sauerkraut Juice

Fight Cancer with Sauerkraut

Sunday, October 24, 2010 by Jennifer C
What do birth control pills, bottled water, chewing gum, Chinese food, x-rays, and pesticides all have in common?  All of these (along with a massive list of other things) are all supposed contributors to causing cancer.  It seems like everywhere you turn these days, there is another thing that can cause cancer, but I, for one, am going to do what I can to fight back.

Luckily, I have discovered Biotta Sauerkraut juice.  Sauerkraut has a soothing effect on the stomach and is low in calories, but according to sauerkraut.com , it contains a large amount of cancer fighting agents and slows cancer growth.  With all of the benefits, I figure you have nothing to lose, so take your first step in the fight against cancer.

Sauerkraut Juice and Canker Sores

Thursday, September 16, 2010 by Jennifer C
I have long been a sufferer of canker sores.  They can be one of the most miserable health problems to go through, making it tough to enjoy talking, eating, or chewing gum...

One of the stranger, yet most effective remedies I've come across for canker sores involves swishing sauerkraut juice around in the mouth twice a day.  There have been many people and sources claiming its powerful effect. 

The People's Pharmacy says, "Take a tablespoon of sauerkraut juice in your mouth and swish it around morning and night, then swallow it. Do this twice a day and the canker sores should go away. We first heard about using sauerkraut juice to treat canker sores from D.W. in Garland, Texas. His mother had been a dental assistant in the 1930s. Since then we have heard from many people that it can provide rapid relief. One physician who benefited personally arranged for analytical testing of sauerkraut juice and discovered a number of active compounds that may be responsible for its healing properties."

Sauerkraut has been around for a LONG time!

Thursday, September 9, 2010 by Jennifer C
A quick note about sauerkraut juice...

I just read that Sauerkraut has been used for over 2200 years as a natural way to relieve digestive problems!  According to The Health Bank, the Chinese have been using fermented cabbage (sauerkraut) since 200 BC...

During the Roman Era, the Romans would carry sauerkraut with them to prevent and cure intestinal infections, as did Genghis Khan in 1300 AD.

It truly is amazing that something as simple as Sauerkraut that is 100% organic juice can have such amazing effects on the body.  It is still as helpful today as it was thousands of years ago.

There are not too many juices that can make such claims, but Biotta is one of them!  If you would like more information on this or any of our other juices, check out our website today!

Start Drinking Juice Today!

Monday, July 19, 2010 by Jennifer C
Many people probably wonder why we push a "juice-centered diet" over one full of just eating an abundance of fruits and veggies in their natural state.  Although we are in no way advocating giving up raw fruits and veggies completely, we do see many benefits behind drinking juice!

One major benefit would be the shelf life of Biotta's juices.  Try to keep some potatoes or celery for a couple years and see how fresh they are! You won't have to worry about drinking Biotta's juice immediately because we guarantee a two year shelf life from the date of production!

The convenience factor isn't the only thing promoting a juice diet.  There are also many health benefits:

According to Living Foods, "Although eating fruits and vegetables in their natural state does provide us with a substantial amount of vitamins and minerals, we only obtain the maximum benefits from them when they are juiced. Much of their goodness is locked in the fiber which is expelled from the body. When we juice the fruits and vegetables, their goodness is released from the fiber and we are able to drink their highly concentrated nutrients which are then able to enter our bloodstream very quickly. "
Drinking Biotta's heart healthy juice will help build up your health in many areas.  Our carrot juice is wonderful for vision, potato juice aids tremendously in digestion and sauerkraut juice has been known to even cure canker sores!

Mixin' it up...

Wednesday, June 23, 2010 by Natalie Hadley
I decided that I was going to start mixing things up a little bit with my juice.  I love most of the Biotta Juices by themselves, but I will admit that the Sauerkraut Juice, as amazingly healthy as it is, is a little tough for me to enjoy by itself.

I just couldn't give up on it though, not after looking at the loooooong list of health benefits that come from the juice.

That is why I decided to start mixing it with Biotta's Vegetable Juice Cocktail and Oh My Gosh!  It is so good!  Something that I was pretty sure would have just ended up bearable, at best, turned out to be one of my favorite drinks!  In fact, I've started enjoying it so much, I'm going right now to order my next case of sauerkraut juice from Biotta!

I encourage all of you to try to mix things up with the juice! Do some experimenting and you might end up making quite a discovery like I did!

And if any of you think you've made quite a delicious concoction, leave me a comment and let me know about it!

Enjoy the Juice!

More Evidence of Sauerkraut Juice's Cancer-Fighting Capabilities

Monday, June 21, 2010 by Jennifer C
It's a topic we've covered many times in this blog, but it's important enough to us that we want to make sure and give you every piece of information that comes up about the health benefits that come from drinking Biotta Juices.  Recently, a group of scientists found more evidence proving Sauerkraut Juice's ability to fight cancer cells in animals and may be as effective in humans as well.

According to the article, "The investigators found that fermenting cabbage produced a number of different compounds, known as isothiocyanates, which have been shown in test tube and animal studies to prevent the growth of cancer, especially in the breast, colon, lung and liver.

According to their experiment, the fermentation process breaks glucosinolate down into isothiocynates and other compounds that may fight cancer. Previous studies have found that isothiocyanates encourage precancerous cells in the digestive system to self-destruct, a process known as apoptosis."

"Our study implies that fermented cabbage can be a good source of plant-derived bioactive compounds such as breakdown products of glucosinolates," Dr. Eeva-Liisa Ryhanen, the study's lead author, told Reuters Health. 

Besides being a strong cancer-fighter, sauerkraut juice is also very effective at treating digestional problems and even canker sores!  Click here to see where you can order a bottle of the juice today!

100% Juice!

Sunday, March 28, 2010 by Jennifer C
Ever wondered what exactly it means when a juice advertises itself as being "100% Juice?"  If you're interested in Biotta's juices, this would be a piece of information you would probably like to know!

Nearly every one of our juices are 100% Juice.  This means that there is nothing else added in.  No additives, preservatives, or anything else that may lead it to being "from concentrate."  Mixed juices can only be 100% Juice if all included fruits or vegetables are 100% pure.  

Here is the breakdown of Biotta's Juices:

100% Juice
Beet
Carrot  
Vegetable Juice Cocktail (in this case, the 'cocktail' denotes a blend of vegetable juices)
Bruess® Vegetable Juice
Celery
Sauerkraut
Potato

Fruit juices are typically too tart or strong to consume at 100% juice.  Therefore, we blend our organic fruit juices with other juices as well as tea extracts to make them more palatable.

74% Juice
Breakfast Blend

70% Juice
Elderberry

We take pride in the natural, healthy, organic qualities of our juices, which is why we produce the purest juice we can!  For a full nutritional breakdown of any of our juices, just check out the products page and take a look!

Sauerkraut Has a History!

Saturday, March 27, 2010 by Jennifer C
As you look through this blog and across the Biotta website, you'll find many pages giving information about the health benefits of sauerkraut and its juice.  I found an interesting article online today that shows just how historic sauerkraut's health benefits stretch back.

Back in the late 18th Century, Captain James Cook was one of the most prominent explorers in the world.  He would take crews of men out to sea months at a time.  One thing that made him a successful captain was his emphasis on the crew's diet. Captain Cook stopped anywhere that he could find to buy fruits and vegetables for his crew because he knew that healthy eating would lead to more success at sea. He discovered that eating sauerkraut and drinking the juice could actually prevent scurvy!  

Now, although scurvy isn't much of a health concern today, it is interesting to see just how long people have known about the health benefits found in sauerkraut juice! Today, sauerkraut has been linked to helping prevent cancer, to building immunity, to helping in digestion.

Why Juice?

Sunday, March 21, 2010 by Jennifer C
Some people may wonder, "Why drink juice? Why not just eat the fruits and vegetables that I normally would be eating?"  Although there is nothing wrong with eating your mashed potatoes or steamed carrots, there are juicing benefits!

According to Rasham Nassar in her article 'Juice Appeal lets you eat your vegetables with a straw,' we have lost a great deal of nutrients in our food thanks to a poor diet and lack of exercise. "When we blend our fruits and vegetables," Nassar says, "we are in a sense bypassing the processing of digestion, going straight from sippy cup to bloodstream, therefore eliminating the risk of a possible loss of valuable vitamins and minerals in our diets." 
Rasham makes some very good points.  Drinking organic vegetable juice ensures that we are getting every bit of the nutritional benefits packed inside.  There is no room for vitamins or minerals to get lost in the process.

Biotta's vegetable juice line contains the following juices- Beet, Carrot, Celery, Potato, Sauerkraut, and our Vegetable Juice Cocktail.  To find more information on these juices, check out our vegetable products page on our website!

What is Sauerkraut Juice good for?

Saturday, March 13, 2010 by Jennifer C
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.

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.

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!

Why do we use glass bottles?

Friday, February 12, 2010 by Jennifer C

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!

 

Remember what your mom told you...

Friday, February 5, 2010 by Jennifer C
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!
