What
exactly is Froose®?
Froose® is a delicious and nutritious whole food
beverage specially made and packaged for the healthy
growth and development of young children. Froose® is
a combination of whole grains and 100% fruit juice. Froose® was
developed by a concerned mom and food scientists at The
International Food Network at Cornell who were looking
for a truly innovative solution to the lack of healthier
drink options for young children.

What
makes Froose® different?
Froose® is an all-natural patented product unlike any other. Froose® provides
your child with all the benefits of organic whole grains and 100% fruit juice
in a smooth and delicious drinkable form. Unlike juice and milk, Froose® delivers
fiber and whole grain nutrients that are not present in other beverages for children.

Why
is Froose® better than
juice?
Froose® combines
the best of Organic Whole Grains and Fruit to make a
delicious and nutritious alternative to juice that is
naturally low in sugar and an excellent source of fiber…as much as
eating a whole piece of fruit. Froose® delivers
whole grain goodness, fiber and half the sugar found
in a typical serving of juice. Froose® uses
a whole grain base and flavors it with 100% fruit concentrates
and organic brown rice syrup. All the elements of the
whole grain are incorporated in the final Froose® beverage.
Nothing is stripped out. The soluble and insoluble fiber
elements along with the whole grain vitamins and other
nutrients are in the Froose® beverage. Regular juice consists of simple carbohydrates coming primarily
from the sugar of the fruit without all of the other
nutrients found in fruit. Pediatricians
warn against over consumption of juice by young children
and, in fact, the American Academy of Pediatricians recommend
no more that 1 ½ cups of juice per day for a two
year old. Froose® is
the healthy alternative to juice for kids.

Why
are whole grains so important for young children?
Whole grains supply complex carbohydrate, protein, fiber
and other nutrients children need to maintain energy
and build bones and muscles. Young children, just like
adults, need fiber and the vast majority do not consume
even close to the recommended daily amount. Whole grains
and fiber have been clinically proven to prevent heart
disease and cancers. With the obesity epidemic raging
in our youth, high cholesterol, high
blood pressure, diabetes and cancers are showing up in
children at younger and younger ages. Adopting nutritionally
sound eating habits from the start that include the incorporation
of more whole grains in the diet of children throughout
the day will set them on the path for better lifelong
health.

What
does the name Froose® mean?
Froose® is a made up word that is trademarked. Understanding
that young children love characters and love to rhyme,
we invented the Froose® Moose character theme for
our beverage line. A great deal of thought, commitment,
energy and time went into developing the Froose® beverage.
Although we are passionate about and dedicated to delivering
nutritionally superior products to young children, we
also firmly believe that healthy products can be formulated
to taste great and be fun for kids. The Froose® Moose
family of Milton, Meredith, Molly and Mitchell delight
our young consumers and certainly help to establish at
an early age the connection between nutrition, better
choices, great taste and fun.

Does
Froose® have to be refrigerated?
No. Froose® is completely shelf stable and does not need to be refrigerated.
However, Froose® tastes even better when served cold. If your
child does not finish their opened drink box, then Froose® would need to
be refrigerated.

How
much Froose® should my child drink?

a nutritious and convenient alternative to empty calorie
