First Juice(R) Organic Juice Beverage for Toddlers Now Has the PTPA Media Seal of Approval!

Posted on: Monday, 8 December 2008, 11:16 CST

RANDOLPH, N.J., Dec. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- First Juice(R) has received a 2008 PTPA Media Award (Parent Tested, Parent Approved) and was recognized in the PTPA Green Category as well. PTPA Media's mission is to discover and appraise new products designed for children and families. Winners of the prestigious Seal of Approval from PTPA Media are selected based on value, functionality, quality and appeal of the product. Being honored with this award is a huge achievement for a product geared to babies, children and parents.

"We are excited to announce the winners of the PTPA Media Inc. product call, Fall 2008," said Sharon Vinderine, a Director at PTPA Media Inc. "It's a win-win situation for the consumer as well as the manufacturer. Parents who are shopping for products for their families can look for our Seal of Approval and know that these products have been tried and tested by parents for parents."

First Juice, the first organic fruit and vegetable juice beverage for toddlers with half the sugar of traditional 100% juices, made its debut nationwide at Whole Foods Market and Babies"R"Us in January, 2008. It has become a fast favorite among parents interested in helping their children establish healthy eating habits from the start. PTPA Media Inc. has reinforced that parents truly love the nutritional value and convenience of First Juice.

"To be recognized by PTPA Media is an honor. The only even more meaningful praise we receive is when a fellow parent serves their child First Juice," explained David Glasser, Founder and CEO, of First Juice, Inc. "Our nutrition and taste standards for the juice, and our convenience standards for the packaging were uncompromising, and always will be."

First Juice is a healthier juice alternative, with 50% less sugar than the leading 100% apple juice. Each eight-ounce serving of First Juice contains only 12 grams of natural sugar from organic fruits and vegetables compared to 27 grams of sugar in an eight-ounce serving of 100% apple juice. A blend of organic fruit and vegetable juice concentrates and purified water, First Juice has been carefully designed with the right amount of flavor for young, developing tastebuds, with the intention of steering them towards an appreciation for flavorful, less sweet tastes.

First Juice is sold in an 8 oz. refillable-reusable-recyclable, spill-proof, BPA-Free sippy-top container that is convenient for parents on-the-go, while the First Juice 32 oz. bottle, also recyclable and BPA-Free, is for use at home, and for refills. First Juice can also be purchased in 12ct. Playgroup Packs(TM) and can be stored without refrigeration until opened. From its organic and reduced sugar attributes to its nutritional value and convenience, First Juice offers everything a parent could want in a juice option for their child.

First Juice was among many entries competing to win the PTPA Media Seal of Approval for Fall 2008. Companies throughout North America submitted samples of their parenting products and they were matched with PTPA Media's large database of parents. The products were tested by savvy parenting reviewers, and professionals and the results were compiled for PTPA Media Inc.'s review committee for the final decision.
