Fresh fruit becomes juice concentrate, which will go through a series of processes of "cleaning - crushing - juicing - composition adjustment - concentration - sterilization - filling".
In this process, a part of the water in the fruit is evaporated, so it is said that the juice is "concentrated".
▎"100% juice" is also watery?
Some of the "100% juices" sold on the market only have water and juice concentrates in the ingredient list, which is equivalent to reducing the concentrated juice.
The advantages of "100% juice" in the production and distribution process are quite obvious, such as easy transportation and shelf life. The disadvantage is that compared to freshly squeezed juices, some of the active ingredients are destroyed and the flavor has changed significantly.
However, as long as there is no extra sugar, it is still healthier than ordinary sugary sweet drinks, and it is much cheaper than other fruit juices.
There are also some common drinks that include concentrated juices, such as "juice drinks", but the content is generally relatively small.
At the same time, from the ingredient list, it can also be found that sugar, sweeteners, spices, etc. are added, which can only be regarded as a sweet drink, and do not consider the health value.
nfc is an abbreviation for "not from concentrate", meaning "non-concentrated reduction".
Compared with concentrated juice, "nfc juice" generally subtracts the steps of ingredient adjustment and concentration in the process, mainly sterilization and filling, and there is no evaporation of water.
Therefore, closer to the state of "natural juice", the shelf life is relatively short and relatively expensive.

The sugar in the juice is also free sugar, which should be restricted.
You can refer to the daily 10% energy supply limit, or limited to less than 50g, to 100% grape juice and other sugary juice to calculate, 350ml of 100% juice can be accepted without burden, and then weigh a little more.
Infants up to six months of age should be exclusively breastfed or infant formula-fed, and it is not recommended to drink juice up to one year of age. 1 to 3 years old drink up to 4 ounces a day, that is, almost 118 milliliters, only one can of Yakult as much. 4 to 6 years old do not exceed 4 to 6 ounces per day, that is, about 118 to 176 ml. Larger children and teens do not exceed 8 ounces per day, or less than 235 milliliters, which is equivalent to about 2/3 of the volume of the common can.
Summer is best to eat fresh fruit, usually in a variety of drinks I will give priority to white water, sugar-free soda, tea soup, black coffee, etc., may be when traveling will drink juice, be sure to drink according to personal taste and wallet thickness to choose 100% juice or nfc juice bar! ~
