So i had cut out Oj for the most part since 2021 not intentionally but I just couldnt handle the liquid amount.
I do know both Costco and whole foods organic orange juices would say “product of usa/mexico” on them. They both had a nice sweet taste and tasted noticeably better than the non organic OJ brands.
A couple months back i tried some whole foods organic OJ and it tasted horrible. Very sour and odd taste. I thought maybe they didn’t refrigerate it properly since it wasnt that cold when i got it. Anyway then i tried costco OJ and it had the same very odd taste to it. Its hard to drink and they dont taste good. Both whole foods and costco OJ now say “product of mexico” on them. So no more usa/mexico. Thats the only on paper difference with these. But something is clearly going on with these, they arent at the same quality level as they used to be.
Ive cut out OJ entirely… and im not sure if it’s really that important? I was doing it for its vitamin C content and anti endotoxin benefits but apparently meat/dairy have vitamin C already?
Ignoring the vitamin C aspect does OJ have the same beneficial effects of something like fig, pomegranate, grape…
There is another organic juice brand i forget the name but they offer a product called super fruit 7… its all organic, comes in a glass bottle, room temperature. It has pomegranate juice, and fig juice and grape juice plus i think strawberry, cranberry, maybe bilberry and something else tart cherry maybe.
Pomegranate juice supposedly has the same effect as thiamine and caffeine. Im forgetting what its called but its when a certain enzyme gets inhibited at higher altitudes. Supposedly pomegranate fruit, juice, maybe even seed extracts inhibit that same enzyme that then increases CO2 levels similar to going high altitude.
This super fruit 7 brand is apparently made in turkey. Maybe thats better than the soil we have here? I read once that turkey had really high boron levels in their soil or something.
They also offer a 100% bilberry (blackberry) juice which sounds really good but i havent seen it available at any stores.
I have tried their 100% pomegranate juice and it does seem to have the co2 boosting effects but it is almost impossible to drink it is far too tart. Even if you add sugar or salt its just impossible to drink more than a sip. The super fruit 7 masks the pomegranate juice because of the other juices in there so thats the only way ive found to have pomegranate juice.
Also the lakewood juice brand sold another product called pomegranate concentrate which is a concentrate meant to mix with water (to create from concentrate pomegranate juice) but it is still a liquid form on its own.
I tried a direct few sips of that stuff and it definitely seemed to increase blood flow, relaxation, and temperature but it is way too difficult to do more than a couple sips due to tartness.
Lakewood is also 100% organic in glass bottles but as far as their concentrate products i think they only offer lemon, lime, tart cherry and pomegranate concentrate liquids. I was reminded of that when Danny Roddy at one point mentioned how marmalade could be considered a superfood because of how it heavily concentrates the nutrients from oranges.
The pomegranate concentrate definitely seems to have the most noticeable immediate effects of any fruit juice or other liquid product I’ve tried. If you could figure out a way to consume that whole 8oz or 12oz bottle I think it would definitely have noticeably measurable effects. It would also be expensive to use daily, cost $10 maybe for the 8oz or 12oz bottle.
