What it is
Organic juice from concentrate is made by removing water from fresh fruit or vegetable juice. The concentrated juice is then reconstituted by adding water back to it. The term 'organic' means it is produced without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use organic juice from concentrate as a natural sweetener and flavoring agent in beverages, baked goods, and dairy products. It is commonly found in fruit drinks, yogurts, and sauces where a natural fruit taste is desired.
Health notes
Organic juice from concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It provides natural sugars and some vitamins, but the concentration process can reduce the levels of certain nutrients compared to fresh juice. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated similar juice products, but specific evaluations for 'organic juice from concentrate' may vary.
