It is perfectly normal for the taste of Intra to vary from time to time. Intra is a natural product and contains no artificial flavors. Several things can affect the taste of Intra such as when the herbs are harvested or different weather conditions, similar to the way the taste of fruits and vegetables can vary on occasion.

No, intra does NOT contain alcohol.

I thought the juice in intra liquid was important?

The juice in the Intra liquid is very important as a natural sweetener as well as an excellent aid to the absorption of the herbs. That is why we included freeze-dried orange juice crystals in the Intra capsules. When the Intra capsules are taken with water the juice crystals mix with the water in the stomach to form orange juice which then assists the absorption of the herbs in the body.
