Hi,
I'm new to Ray Peat's ideas and am glad to have found this forum. My plan is to slowly start to learn about and try implementing his ideas to see if they will work for me.
Anyway, I appreciate that squeezing and filtering your own OJ is the best option. But assuming that I'm going down the store bought route I'm trying to get my head around avoiding OJ made from concentrate.
My understanding is Peat used to drink juice from concentrate but then started having some negative reactions to some enzyme that had started being used in the process so then went down the path of squeezing his own. The alternative is Not From Concentrate (NFC) OJ.
The following article gives an interesting comparison of the two types:

Now in reading that article I'm thinking that maybe I'm better off going with OJ from concentrate provided I don't experience any adverse reactions.
I haven't found anything where Peat said specifically that NFC is better, instead simply an explanation as to why he changed from concentrate to fresh. I wonder if various Peat followers have misinterpreted things and assumed NFC was next best to fresh simply because is wasn't from concentrate.
Of course I'm totally new to all of this and am simply trying to work out what I should buy. If anyone can clarify this for me that would be most appreciated.
