We are sometimes asked what the difference is, on our drinks and fruit juices. Our drinks are not juices, they are prebiotic fruit drinks. They have natural juices from the fruits and natural colors. The colors do not necessarily come from the fruit. The yellow drinks have color from beta-carotene and turmeric.
Pasteurized juice on Tetrapac has in practice few or no vitamins and nutritional content can not be compared with homemade juices, or not tempered juices. Pasteurization “Boils” out the vitamins from the juice.

* For AS and F ‘ n S, the content varies |
Only the Amazon Secret and Fruity ‘ n Sweet have significant amounts of prebiotic dietary fibers that are documented to be good for digestion as the fiber is nourished for the good intestinal bacteria. The products have enough less vitamins than not heat-treated juices, but we believe that they are still healthier than natural juices, because the products are prebiotic, and because they do not contain sugar, or synthetic sweeteners such as aspartame, acesulfame-K and Sucralose.
JustSweet, the sweetening material in our drinks, is made from natural ingredients, Stevia and corn. It is a high intensively prebiotic sweetening substance, 25+ times sweeter than sugar.
