description Health juice is becoming popular among the locals since it can be beneficial to health. However, the safety and efficiency of health juice have been the subject of continuous argument. The present study was conducted to determine the content of bioactive compounds and bioactivities of Haq juice, which is made up of five natural ingredients namely ginger, garlic, honey, lemon and apple cider vinegar to provide value added information for commercialization and to gain consumer‘s trust.
