This sweet drink, without any added sugar, provides a moderate amount of carbohydrates, mostly through all natural fructose and glucose; eight ounces equals about 10% of the daily required intake of carbohydrates for a 2000 calorie diet. Apple juice contains minerals such as calcium, potassium, iron, manganese and magnesium. All-natural apple juice also provides vitamins C and B6.

The natural sugars found in the beverage also provide a healthy source of energy and muscle hydration. Natural apple juice contains a very low amount of sodium at only 10 mg per each cup. Over consuming sodium, a nutrient found in most foods, increases blood pressure which often causes heart damage. This fruit juice variety contains no fats or unhealthy cholesterol either, both of which cause adverse health issues with prolonged consumption. The mineral combination found in apple juice help increase metabolic function, decrease the risk of bone disease, and work to increase heart health as well. The vitamin C in the fruit juice helps regulate the bodily functions such as the conversion of food energy into fuel for the muscles.
