Organic Juice

Organic juice is made from fruits or vegetables grown without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers. The juice is extracted from these organic crops, often through pressing or blending. It is typically pasteurized to ensure safety and shelf stability.

Manufacturers use organic juice primarily as a natural sweetener and flavoring agent. It can also contribute color and nutrients to food products. You'll find it in beverages like juices and smoothies, as well as in yogurts, sauces, and baked goods.

Organic juice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. Like all fruit juices, it contains natural sugars, and excessive consumption can contribute to high sugar intake. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated juices and their components. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming organic juice at typical dietary levels.
