100% cranberry. How come its always from concentrate? Good for you?

Just curious why all the 100% cranberry juice on the shelves is always from concentrate. It almost sounds like an oxymoron to me.
Why can't i find the juice squeezed right out of the cranberry?
Also should i be watering down this 100% cranberry? Is it too acidic or strong for my stomach?

Buying cranberries is rather expensive....yet sooo delicious. They are a dollar more than blueberries by weight. I love dehydrating it and putting on my oatmeal however, I tend to buy lots of blueberries instead
I don't buy juices. I buy the fruits that make them. So much more bioavailability in fresh produce, not so much for pasteurized produce from CONCENTRATE. All the 100% juice mumbo jumbo is just a malignant scheme to get you to buy their product. Who knows how long the cranberries stayed in solution. If you research, you can see that Ascorbic acid(vitamin C) degrades past 60% after a week in aqueous solution.
I'd rather use up those calories for some homemade wine lots of sugar there anyway

Yeah, its just better to use the fruit themselves.
It is rare you will actually find a drink that's real juice with no added ingredients

I mean cranberries are only in season in the fall from september till november, and they don't ship well at all, yet they need to produce the juice year round so obviously freezing is what they have to do. Then concentrating saves them even more money in terms of volume stored, so they do that.

Even juice not from concentrate is bullshit most of the time. They store that shit in huge silos for months then add shit to "freshen it up" when it gets sent out.

They are concentrating it to save money? Then why are they charging me like $10 for a tiny little bottle?
Why don't they just make some good real shit and charge more?

I'm currently using barley grass juice concentrate as a supplement as it's a lot more practical than fresh greens.

I ordered 100% pure not from concentrate cranberry juice, drank a lot of it, and it caused my bladder to spaz out.

Cranberry juice is also an effective diuretic.
