NFC is the abbreviation of Not From Concentrate in English. It is called “non-concentrated reduced juice” in Chinese. The fresh fruit is washed and pressed to squeeze out the juice, which is instantly sterilized and then filled directly (without concentration and restoration), completely retaining the original fresh flavor of the fruit. NFC juice filling is divided into cold filling and hot filling. Cold filling is more conducive to preserving the nutrients and taste of the original juice, while hot filling is more conducive to the preservation and timeliness of the juice. The vast majority of pure fresh fruit juices on the market today are actually just ordinary concentrated fruit juices, which are concentrated fruit juices mixed with water, sugar, preservatives, etc. to reduce them to drinkable fruit juices. Due to the complex processing of concentration and reduction, its freshness and taste cannot be compared with NFC products.
“NFC” is the abbreviation of “Not From Concentrate” in English, and its Chinese meaning is “non-concentrated reduced juice”, which is 100% non-concentrated reduced juice. “NFC juice” is made by pasteurizing the fruit directly after juice extraction and processing in a low-temperature environment. Since this kind of freshly squeezed juice is heated for a relatively short time during processing, it loses less nutrients and better maintains the original flavor of the fresh fruit. The disadvantage of this kind of juice is that it is suitable for low-temperature storage and has a relatively short shelf life; in addition, because it is a real pure juice and is not easy to store, the cost is also high.
Most of the fruit juice drinks commonly seen on the market are reconstituted from concentrated juice, resulting in serious nutrient loss. Some merchants also play around and claim to be “100% juice content”. However, upon closer inspection, this statement is inappropriate. The advantage of reduced juice is that it is easy to store, relatively cheap, and generally accepted by the public.
