Blueberry juice

You can try this yourself at home. You need some purple grape juice, blueberry juice, or the water left over after boiling a red cabbage. If you add clear distilled vinegar, the juice will turn red. If you add baking soda, the juice will turn blue. 

The thiocyanate method involves measurement of the peroxide value using linoleic acid as substrate and has also been widely used to measure the antioxidant activity in plant-based foods such as ginger extracts (Kikuzaki and Nakatani 1993), fruit peels (Larrauri and others 1996 1997), extracts from vegetable by-products (Larrosa and others 2002 Llorach and others 2003 Abas and others 2006 Peschel and others 2006), blueberry juice, wines, and vinegars (Su and Chien 2007). 

Acetic acid occurs naturally in many plant species including Merrill flowers Telosma cordata), in which it was detected at a concentration of 2,610 ppm (Furukawa et al., 1993). In addition, acetic acid was detected in cacao seeds (1,520 to 7,100 ppm), celery, blackwood, blueberry juice (0.7 ppm), pineapples, licorice roots (2 ppm), grapes (1,500 to 2,000 ppm), onion bulbs, oats, horse chestnuts, coriander, ginseng, hot peppers, linseed (3,105 to 3,853 ppm), ambrette, and chocolate vines (Duke, 1992).

Many researchers succeeded in demonstrating discernible transient effects of meals on TAC of blood plasma. Consumption of 500 ml of cranberry juice (but not blueberry juice) induced an increase in blood plasma TAC, attaining a maximum after 60-120 min (P5). TAC of elderly women was also increased 0 1 hr after consumption of 240 g of strawberries, 1250 mg of ascorbic acid, or 240 g of raw spinach or drinking 300 ml of red wine. TAC of urine collected over 24 hr was also increased after consumption of vitamin C (by 45%), spinach (by 28%), and strawberries (by 10%) (C13). 

Reports on Siberian tribesmen suggest that they usually take three— one large and two small sun-dried mushrooms, often with reindeer milk or bogberry juice (similar to blueberry juice). However, the Church of the Tree of Life literature on Fly Agaric cautions potential users that "Siberian tribesmen have a far more robust constitution than most of us. It suggests that no one take any more than a single, modest-sized mushroom—at least until its effects are clearly demonstrated.

Anthocyanin and polyphenolic contents are reported for both the actual sample (row labeled Sample ) and that derived from 100 g of berries (row labeled Blueberries ). Juice compositional data are reported on the basis of the actual °Brix, 15.0° to convert data to the U.S. single-strength °Brix standard of 10.0° (Anonymous, 1993), multiply by 0.666. 

Crush and heat blueberries to 100°, and maintain for 20 minutes. Strain and rinse to remove skins. Boil 3 gallons of water. Add honey and blueberry juice and all other ingredients. Cool after 10 minutes and transfer to a primary fermenter, bringing up to 5 gallons. Pitch yeast. Rack to a secondary fermenter after 3 weeks. Rack again 7 weeks later. Bottle after 4 months. 

Many natural substances are acid-base indicators. The most familiar one is litmus, an organic dye extracted from certain lichens. Litmus turns from blue to red in acidic solutions (< pH 7) and from red to blue in basic solutions ( pH 7). Some other natnral indicators include red cabbage extract, blueberry juice, black tea, beet juice, rhubarb, and tomato leaves, and flowers such as the rose, daylily, blue iris, and purple dahlia. Red cabbage extract undergoes sharp changes of color at several pH values. The deep purple color of red cabbage leaves is caused by a mixture of water-soluble...
