Question:

How do they make low acid orange juice low acid??

Have you heard of this low acid orange juice?? It's nice to enjoy a glass w/o hearburn or as bad heartburn, but what do they put in here that i'm drinking instead? lol


Answers:
The orange juice product has a low titratable acidity which combines with a condition resulting after addition of a calcium source such as a calcium citrate source.

An orange juice supply is provided and/or modified to be a low-acid orange juice supply having a titratable acid content of not greater than about 0.6 weight percent based upon the total weight of the juice product. A calcium additive such as a calcium citrate source is added to the low-acid orange juice supply so that the calcium concentration within the orange juice product is greater than 0.04 weight percent, based upon the total weight of the orange juice product.
