A la hora de comprar jugo, recuerda que no todos son iguales. No te dejes engañar por una etiqueta elegante y colorida o por palabras que lo hagan parecer jugo puro de frutas. A continuación, te mostramos cómo identificar un jugo natural:

Por ley, se debe indicar el porcentaje de jugo presente en el producto; por lo tanto, revisa detenidamente la etiqueta de información nutricional. El primer ingrediente debe ser “100 % jugo” o “100 % jugo de concentrado”.
  • ✓ “100 % jugo” es básicamente fruta líquida; no hay colorantes, conservantes ni azúcar agregados.
  • ✓ “100 % jugo de concentrado” sigue siendo jugo natural; la única diferencia es la forma en que se procesó la fruta después de que se la recolectó. Si el jugo está hecho de concentrado de fruta, es probable que el primer ingrediente sea agua.
Si tiene una larga lista de ingredientes, hay más probabilidades de que se trate de una bebida con sabor a fruta o una mezcla de jugo de frutas, pero no jugo natural.

Las bebidas con sabor a fruta, los cócteles de jugo de fruta y las mezclas de jugo de fruta NO son jugo natural. Es posible que los denominados cócteles o bebidas a base de jugo solo tengan entre un 5 % y un 15 % de jugo y, por lo general, tienen gran cantidad de azúcares agregados.
