University of the Philippines Develops Healthy Fruit-Vegetable Juices

From Manila Bulletin

Refreshments are the rage these days due to the extreme heat, and just in time for the warm weather, researchers from the Department of Food Science and Nutrition of the University of the Philippines (UP) Diliman, have developed five blends of fruit and vegetable juices that are natural, nutritious and safe and should pass the quality standards for juices using aseptic processing and packaging technology.

Through the years, people have become more and more health conscious.

This is what pushed the group to produce a variety of healthy drinks.

The new blend of ready-to-drink tropical fruit and vegetable juice drinks developed by researchers from UP Diliman, with the support of the Department of Science and Technology-Philippine Council for Industry and Energy Research and Development (DoST-PCIERD) come in five flavors.

These are mango-guapple, pineapple-dalandan, carrot-calamansi, papaya-calamansi and strawberry-banana.
