Ascorbic AcidGood

Apple juice concentrate is a processed form of apple juice that retains some nutrients but is higher in sugars. It lacks the fiber found in whole apples, which can lead to quicker spikes in blood sugar. The concentration process may reduce some of the natural antioxidants present in whole apples.
