What’s in Natalie’s Orange Beet Juice?

Rich in calcium, iron and vitamins A and C, beetroots and oranges are an optimal source of folic acid, fibre, magnesium and potassium.
What’s in Natalie’s Orange Beet Juice?
Think beets aren’t as healthy as your regular greens? These purple wonders are part of the chard and spinach family with a nutritional value that is equally beneficial. At Natalie’s we use a beet purée, the healthiest alternative to beet concentrate. What’s more, our orange beet juice has only two ingredients and is gourmet pasteurized at the lowest allowed temperature for the minimum amount of time to ensure our juice retains optimum nutrition, enzymatic activity, and an unrivaled refreshing taste.
What about other beet and orange juices?
The added concentrates in other juice brands do more harm to the body than good. Concentrated juices were invented in the 1940’s. Scientists discovered a way to remove water from orange juice and freeze the concentrate into a palatable product, which allowed them to create literal blocks of juice concentrate. Soon thereafter, the US produce market began to sell the juice to American consumers or store it for months at a time. Thus began the era of the multi-million dollar juice market, in the form of boxed juices. This scientifically engineered food found its way to the breakfast table of the all-American family.
How does choosing Natalie’s affect me?
By choosing our orange beet juice you’ll be absorbing the highest concentrate of vitamins and nutrients available including calcium, iron, vitamins A and C, folic acid, fibre, magnesium and potassium. A glass a day can lower blood pressure by at least 7 percent.
When should I drink Natalie’s Orange-Beet Juice?
Anytime, but before a workout is the perfect opportunity as well. Why? Beet juice enables the heart to consume less oxygen during a workout which, according to the American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology allows “exercise to be performed at a given workload for a longer period of time before the onset of fatigue.”
Oh and did we mention that oranges and beets make the perfect duo? Oranges help activate the iron contained in beets so drink up and enjoy!
