Apple And Peach Juices From Concentrate

This ingredient is made from the juices of apples and peaches that have been concentrated and then reconstituted with water. The concentration process removes water to make the juice easier to transport and store. It is commonly used to provide fruit flavor and sweetness in beverages and other food products.

Manufacturers use apple and peach juices from concentrate primarily to add natural fruit flavor and sweetness to products. They are often found in fruit juices, nectars, fruit-flavored drinks, and sometimes in baked goods or dairy products to enhance their fruity taste.

Apple and peach juices from concentrate are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. They are a source of natural sugars and provide some vitamins and minerals found in the original fruits. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar fruit juice ingredients. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming these juices at typical dietary levels.
