What it is

Organic orange juice is the liquid extracted from organically grown oranges. The oranges are typically pressed or squeezed, and the juice is then pasteurized to ensure safety and extend shelf life. The 'organic' designation means the oranges were grown without synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, or genetically modified organisms, following USDA organic standards.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add organic orange juice to products primarily for its natural flavor, sweetness, and acidity. It is also valued for its nutritional content, including vitamin C. It is commonly found in fruit and vegetable juices, nectars, fruit drinks, and other beverages, as well as in some cooked and prepared foods.

Health notes

Organic orange juice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA as a food ingredient. It is a source of vitamin C and other beneficial plant compounds. However, like all fruit juices, it contains natural sugars, and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (2025-2030) recommend limiting added sugars, though this applies to sugars added during processing, not naturally occurring sugars in 100% fruit juice. JECFA and EFSA evaluate food additives, not whole food ingredients like orange juice.
