Putting preservatives into a nutritional juice supplement defeats the intended purpose of the supplement; yet manufacturers are doing just that to give their product a longer shelf life. Studies indicate that many of the preservatives that are being used in healthy juice supplements are contributing to disease-causing damage in the body. Something about this scenario doesn’t make sense – we take nutritional juice supplements to enhance our health, but the preservatives in the supplement can cause disease.
Two specific preservatives – Sodium Benzoate or E211 and Sodium Benzoate – have been linked to:
• Hyperactivity and decreased intelligence in children
• DNA damage which can lead to neurodegenerative diseases and increased aging process
• Becoming a human carcinogen when combined with Vitamin C
And, to add insult to injury, many popular juice supplements that contain preservatives are bottled in plastic bottles that leach toxins into the supplement which adds another dose of damage to our already taxed bodies. It seems like a vicious cycle – we take natural juice supplements to enhance our health, but the preservatives in the supplements - along with the toxins from the plastic bottles that hold the supplements -are causing us harm.
Mandura™, a juice supplement that is made from Durian, Mangosteen, Acai and Blueberry has found a solution that helps them bring their nutritional supplement to the market without adding preservatives, and in a bottle that doesn’t give off toxins. The process is called Aseptic Bottling which uses “state of the art cold-filled technology” eliminating the need to add preservatives; yet the product maintains a shelf life of approximately two years. The bottles the company uses are made from #2 HDPE plastic which drastically reduces “the carbon footprint of production and distribution,” can withstand the Aseptic bottling process, and is more durable and easily recyclable.
Mandura™ believes that the “goal of nutritional supplements is to fuel our bodies with nutrients that contribute to health benefits.” Adding preservatives to a healthy supplement is like putting sugar in a gallon of premium gas before you put it into your car – it doesn’t make a lot of sense.
As a part of their mission statement, Mandura™ states that they want “to enrich the lives of individuals and families worldwide by serving one another and providing superior nutritional products…” By consciously keeping preservatives and additional toxins added by plastic containers out of their product, they are making a very good step toward achieving their goal.
