When cranberries are turned over, they reveal a white underside. This happens because the red pigment of the berry shifts to the surface as a protective measure against cold and sunlight exposure. Consequently, berries that have not been exposed to sunlight for long periods of time will often turn red during frosty nights.
Antioxidants can help reduce the frequency of active urinary tract infection.
The antioxidants in cranberry juice, cranberry extracts, and other cranberry products prevent or lessen urinary tract infection by inhibiting bacterial adhesion. These effects are not dependent on antibiotic resistance.
In one study, cranberry juice reduced the frequency of UTIs by 20%. This effect was observed in both men as well as women. The study also showed that cranberry-lingoberry extract reduced the number white blood cells and bacteria in urine among older adults. But, since everyone’s body reacts differently to antioxidants, it’s important to remember that cranberries may not help all cases of UTI.
In another study, cranberry juice may decrease the number of UTIs in women with a history of UTI. This study involved 185 women who were given 240 mL of cranberry juice daily for 24 weeks. The other group received a placebo. After 24 weeks, the cranberry-drinking team had 39 UTIs compared to the 67 in the placebo. The difference was significant.
It’s fat-free
White cranberry juice has several benefits that make it an excellent choice for anyone looking to eat healthy and keep a healthy weight. Its polyphenol content supports heart health and can help lower levels of “bad” cholesterol. In one study, women with metabolic syndrome who regularly consumed cranberry juice experienced a significant increase in antioxidant levels. In another study, cranberry juice was found to reduce the stiffness of the carotid-femoral artery (a measure of arterial stiffness), a marker of coronary artery disease.
White cranberry juice is low in fat and sodium. It is a low-calorie drink that is a natural remedy for colds and a nutrient-rich snack. This juice is high in vitamin C which helps fight infections as well as reduces the risk of developing heart disease.
It is less tart when it is ripe
White cranberry juice can be made when cranberries are still young in the harvesting process. It is less tart than red and is therefore more affordable. Cranberries taste better when they are still unripe. They also have a pleasant texture that is more enjoyable to drink because of their floatability. Cranberry growers flood the fields to bring the fruit to their surface.
The powerful antioxidants found in cranberries are remarkable. They are rich in anthocyanins which have been proven to be powerful antioxidants. Other studies have shown that the fruit may be able to fight Alzheimer’s disease.
It appeals to younger consumers
White cranberry juice is a refreshing and unique choice for younger consumers. Its tart taste is less prominent than its red counterpart, making it more popular with young families. The juice is also less likely to stain carpets. It is popular among bartenders, who use it in clear cosmopolitans. This new juice was introduced to the public at an Ocean Spray board meeting in 2000.
White cranberry juice doesn’t have red or purple color. The color of the juice comes from the skin of the cranberry, which is what makes it red. Other fruits become sweeter as their color deepens, but cranberries retain their tartness. Carolyn DeMoranville is the director of the University of Massachusetts Cranberry Experimentation Station East Wareham. According to her, white cranberries have milder flavors and less acidity that the red variety.
