What it is

Vegetable juice concentrate is made by removing water from vegetable juice. This process intensifies the color, flavor, and nutrient content of the original vegetable juice. It is a concentrated form of the vegetable's essence.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use vegetable juice concentrate to add natural color and flavor to foods and beverages. It is a common ingredient in fruit and vegetable juices, yogurts, and sports drinks, providing a vibrant hue and a concentrated taste without adding significant bulk.

Health notes

Vegetable juice concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of vitamins and minerals naturally present in the vegetables from which it is derived. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar food ingredients, and EFSA has also reviewed vegetable-based colorants. At typical consumption levels, it is not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info

Vegetable juice concentrate is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
