Why is carob and apple extract a better choice than refined sugar?
Our new line of herbal waters DoNatural brings sweetness from nature — but not just any kind. Herbal waters DoNatural contain Fruit Up, an exclusive carob and apple extract that redefines what sugar can do for your body.
The secret of Mediterranean “black gold” and apple
The basis of our natural sweetener is carob, an ancient Mediterranean pod valued as far back as Ancient Greece, combined with juicy apple. While regular sugar offers only energy with no nutritional value, carob is naturally rich in fibre and minerals, and its pulp delivers a distinctive, full-bodied flavour profile.
Clean technology: from tree to bottle — without chemicals
What sets DoNatural apart on the market is the way the extract is produced. Most industrial syrups go through aggressive chemical treatments. Our carob and apple extract is obtained exclusively through physical extraction technology.
- No chemicals.
- No additives.
- No enzymatic treatments.
What you drink is a concentrated essence of fruit in its purest form.
Functional power: energy that lasts
Why is Fruit Up the “smarter” sugar?
- Low glycaemic index of 40
The glycaemic index measures how quickly sugar enters your bloodstream. While common sugars (such as sucrose or glucose syrups) cause a sharp spike followed by a steep energy drop (the so-called sugar crash), our extract has a value of just 40. Anything below 55 is considered a low index.
- Longer endurance without feeling tired
Thanks to the low glycaemic index, blood glucose levels remain steadier for longer. This means:
- No sudden mood swings.
- A sustained sense of energy.
- Ideal for an active day — from work to training.
Most “light” drinks use artificial sweeteners that may disrupt the gut microbiome, or fructose syrups that burden the liver. Herbal waters DoNatural with carob and apple extract offer a natural alternative that doesn’t send a stress signal to the body but provides fuel exactly as nature intended.
Expert’s word: “This extract is not just a sweetener — it is a functional ingredient. By using the synergy of carob and apple, we created a product that supports our metabolism.”
