Why Cloudy Apple Juice Is Better For You
It's scientifically proven that cloudy apple juice is better for you than clear varieties. Researchers have found that found the levels of antioxidants which protect against heart disease and cancer are almost double in cloudy apple juice!
These antioxidants, called polyphenols, are also found in red wine, berries and dark chocolate.
In the Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, the researchers said the manufacturing process led to fewer polyphenols in clear apple juice.
"If you're interested in health, you should go for a non-clarified apple juice" says our apple expert Barry Thompson.
The manufacturing process used to make clear apple juice, includes using an enzyme to break down the pectin in apple cell walls and spinning to remove pulp, considerably decreases the levels of polyphenols in the end product.
Judy Moore, spokesperson for the British Dietetic Association and registered dietitian said: "Almost doubling your intake of apple polyphenols by switching from clear to cloudy juice seems an easy option for apple juice drinkers.
"Don't forget that eating apples offers more health benefits than drinking apple juice as you also get the fibre in apples."
