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. The study found allicin, the end product from garlic was detected using gas chromatography mass spectroscopy (GCMS) and methylglyoxal from honey was detected using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Proteins in Haq juice were identified using Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LCMS-MS) analysis. In addition, phenolics and flavonoids content in the juice were also analyzed to determine the antioxidant activity of the juice. The juice sample and its ingredient samples (ginger, garlic, honey, lemon and apple cider vinegar) were tested for their antioxidant activity based on 2,2- diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate (DPPH) free radical scavenging assay and Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) assay.
