Ur wrong about juice being pasteurized to keep old and very young (at risk pop.) from dieing. Its because big business could not be trusted to keep deer crap or any other animal from contaminating our juice. That's why the military went to this and the food industry just followed up (easier to make one product than two). I also read something about pasteurization destroys vitamins. While heat may do this, it would ultimately come down to the type of pasteurization. There are three types that I know with convention pasteurization being 145*F for 30 min. Iraq naturally got pretty close to this with temps at 125*F plus. Thermometer maxed out at 125*F. I do agree that unpasteurized juice maybe be better but I do not agree that buying juice that is unpasteurized with a brand name is. Its more expensive and is only a deceptive ploy by the food industry to separate you from your money. If you are truly worried about this then wash and squeeze your own. Also maybe do some actual studding on the subject before spotting out half truths. I do believe you honestly mean well but have the sheep syndrome that everyone else seem to have. All in all, if you are lazy about your juice, just buy pasteurized. It is SAFER than unpasteurized juice and just as healthy. Don't tell me you think time on the shelf won't effect nutrient content in juice. You might want to look into this. After all microorganisms living in unpasteurized juice need their vitamin and minerals too.
