Advantages: Can be one of your 5 daily portions of fruit and vegetables

Disadvantages: Slightly pasteurised so lacks the goodness of freshly squeezed.

Tropicana is the world's leading producer of orange juice and is owned by the US drinks company PepsiCo. Tropicana produce a range of different fruit juices and have recently started to sell fruit juice smoothies.

Tropicana grapefruit juice must always be stored in your refrigerator. Before drinking from the carton be sure to give it a shake. Once opened it is recommended that you use it within five days but I have often used it until seven days without a problem, as long as it is refrigerated.

According to the manufacturers Tropicana Grapefruit juice is healthy and good for you. It clearly has health benefits and will contribute to a healthy diet. One 150ml glass of Tropicana grapefruit juice is supposed to equal one of your 5 daily portions of fruit and vegetables - the currently fashionable description of what it means to eat healthily according to so-called 'health and medical experts'. A 250ml glass of juice contains a full day's supply of Vitamin C and is a good source of Folic Acid. It contains no cholesterol, sodium or fat and is supposed to promote healthy blood pressure

It is sold in most of the main supermarkets and is generally available for around £1.90 per one litre carton, although there are often multi-buy special offers with Tropicana fruit juice drinks.
