Editor's Notes
orange juice is rich in vitamin C, folic acid, potassium and excellent source of bioavailable antioxidant phytochemicals which improves blood lipid profiles in hypercholesterolemia
Fact: Having fruits is a great way to satisfy your sweet tooth and get the extra nutrition you’re looking for. Fruits are loaded with vitamins, minerals and fiber just like vegetables. Fruit contains carbohydrate so you need to count it as part of your meal plan; however portion size of the fruit has to be controlled.
Fact: Fruit has more fiber, fewer calories, and more phytonutrients than juice. There are certain things lacking in fruit juice that exist in the whole fruit, namely fruit skin, which is loaded with antioxidants like flavonoids, and fruit pulp, which is the main source of fruit fiber. In addition, a fruit juice may contain added sugar, colour, or preservatives, which are not healthy .You are better off eating a piece of fruit than drinking a glass of juice.
Carrot juice has a particularly high content of β-carotene, a source of vitamin A, but it is also high in B complex vitamins like folate, and many minerals including calcium, copper, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, and iron. A pound (454 g) of carrots will yield about a cup of juice (about 150gm), which is a low yield compared to fruits like apples and oranges. However, carrot pulp is very tough; the main difficulty in juicing carrots is in separating the pulp from the juice.
