I am lactose intolerant, and can't drink milk. Can I drink AdeZ fruit juice & soya drink? |
| |
There should be no problem. We put soya protein in AdeZ fruit juice & soya drink - and soya is a plant. We do not add any dairy products at all. So you can go ahead and enjoy the great flavour of AdeZ. |
 |
My son is allergic to nuts. Can he drink AdeZ fruit juice & soya drink? |
| |
Don't worry, he should have no problems. We know that some people cannot be exposed to nuts - even the littlest bit can cause allergic reactions. That's why we have banned all peanuts and tree nuts from our production line. (Some of the people who work with us may be a little nutty, but that's another story!) |
 |
Does AdeZ fruit juice & soya drink contain gluten? |
| |
Some people need to avoid gluten. That's the protein that can be formed in foods made with certain cereals like wheat, rye and barley (and sometimes oats). The soya protein in AdeZ fruit juice & soya drink is naturally gluten-free. We do use a bit of maltodextrin in AdeZ (< 200 mg/kg), which is made from wheat. But because this starch-based substance is used in such small amounts, it is considered most unlikely to cause adverse reactions if you have coeliac disease. But to be on the safe side, ask your doctor, OK? |
 |
Can vegans and vegetarians drink AdeZ? |
| |
They sure can drink our Mango & Apricot, Pineapple & Passionfruit and Orange & Peach variants! These variants of AdeZ Fruit Juice & Soya drink are a great addition to a vegetarian diet. First of all, they are plant-based drinks. All our vegan friends will especially appreciate the 2.7g of soya protein in every 250ml serving. And it's a great source of calcium, too!
Unfortunately the Blackcurrant & Raspberry variant is not suitable for vegetarians at the moment, as it contains a red colour that is not plant-based. The good news is that its natural and we don't then have to put in any artificial colours, but of course we are working very hard to find a natural solution that will also satisfy our vegetarian drinkers! We will keep you posted. |
 |
Can soya cause allergic reactions? |
| |
Yes. Though not very likely. Less than 1% of people are allergic to soya. If you are worried about your kids, it's handy to know that most food allergies pop up before the age of two, and that kids generally outgrow soya allergy by the time they finish pre-school. |
 |
I am a diabetic. Can I drink AdeZ fruit juice & soya drink? |
| |
Yes. If you keep these things in mind: the distribution of your daily carbohydrate intake, your insulin levels
and your level of physical activity. To be on the safe side, we recommend that you ask your doctor or dietitian. Here are some facts you'll want to mention when you're talking to her (or him). The carbohydrate content of AdeZ is 6.0 to 6.3 g / 100 ml. Of this amount, up to 4.9 g are sugars (depending on the flavour). This figure includes some of the fruit sugars which occur naturally in the fruit juice. Another bonus is the fat content of AdeZ - less than 0.5 g per 100 ml! |
 |
Is AdeZ a fruit drink or a soya drink? |
| |
It may look like we can't make up our minds, but actually, it's a bit of both! We created a tasty blend of fruit juices, then added soya protein. AdeZ fruit juice & soya drink is an easy way to get some of those nutrients your body needs for a healthy diet. Like calcium, magnesium, vitamin C and B6. |
 |
Why is soya good for me? |
| |
There are sooooo many reasons! Soya is a great source of high-quality protein, which can help keep us strong. It also contains polyunsaturated fats (those are the good fats - that help lower your cholesterol). And then there are all the vitamins and minerals. We could go on forever - and we did! Just take a look at this to find out more! |
 |
How much soya does AdeZ fruit juice & soya drink contain? |
| |
2.7 g of soya protein per serving. How much is a serving? 250 ml. How much is that? Almost half a pint, or 8.80 fluid ounces. Or just a pinch under 17 tablespoons! |
 |
Can I drink AdeZ fruit juice & soya drink instead of milk? |
| |
We didn't make AdeZ fruit juice & soya drink to replace dairy products in your diet. And we wouldn't want to put all those friendly cows out of work. AdeZ is simply a great part of any balanced diet. Compared with a glass of milk, a glass of AdeZ has about the same amount of calcium. It's got more magnesium and vitamin C and B6, and less fat (including less saturated fat) and calories than semi-skimmed milk. On the other hand, milk has more protein, vitamin D and some other B vitamins. |

 |
What is "isolated soya protein"? |
| |
It's soya protein that has been extracted from the whole bean. Why do we use it in AdeZ fruit juice & soya drink, you ask? Whole soya beans taste bitter, and most of us wouldn't really enjoy drinking it. So a lot of food and beverages that contain soya actually contain "soya protein isolate". The soya protein we use contains 85-90 g of protein per 100 g, and has virtually no fat or carbohydrate. |

 |
Can young children drink AdeZ fruit juice & soya drink? |
| |
As long as your children has a balanced diet, it is safe to offer them AdeZ. We do not recommend giving AdeZ to children under 3 years. And you certainly should not consider AdeZ a replacement for your child's infant formula or milk. However, it is an ideal replacement for other regular fruit drinks and soft drinks. And it tastes good, too! |
 |
Is the packaging environmentally friendly? |
| |
We have done our best! The AdeZ fruit juice & soya drink ®Tetra Pak carton has a minimal impact on the environment - throughout its life cycle. On top of this, Tetra Pak has recently signed a global cooperation agreement with the WWF to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and further improve the responsible purchasing of forestry products. We also chose this carton because it is energy efficient, airtight and ensures that your AdeZ stays fresh. Do your bit, too - help by squeezing out the air before you throw your empty carton of AdeZ away. |
