Description
Fruits in Aojiru DX — 3 g × 24 Sachets
Overview
The Japanese name of this one is おいしいフルーツin青汁デラックス, and the maker is Japan Gals SC. It is barley grass built out into a fruit drink: 82 plant fermentation extracts and 16 fruits, on a base that includes carrot and tomato powder. Japan Gals took a Monde Selection medal for it in 2022 — their claim, and a taste award rather than a health one.
One thing to know before you buy. Glucose is the second ingredient and fructose is the fourth. That is how a barley-grass powder ends up tasting of fruit, and it is a fair trade if you know you are making it, which is why the order of the declaration is printed below.
Aojiru (青汁) is the Japanese name for a powdered green drink, usually made from young barley grass or kale, that is stirred into water or milk and drunk once a day. It is sold in Japan as an ordinary food, not as a medicine: the point is to add vegetable material and dietary fibre to a diet that is short of both, in a format that takes fifteen seconds. Nothing on this page should be read as a treatment for any condition.

Who Is This For?
- Someone trying fruit aojiru for the first time who does not want to commit to a large box
- People who find plain barley grass undrinkable and would rather accept some sugar than skip the greens
- Anyone who wants carrot and tomato in the mix rather than a purely fruit-flavoured powder
- Not for you if you are watching added sugars — glucose and fructose are both high in the declaration
- Check the box first if you have food allergies; the allergen line is not published online for this one
How to Use
- Tear open one sachet.
- Pour 80–100 ml of cold or room-temperature water into a glass or shaker.
- Add the powder and stir or shake until no lumps remain. A shaker gives the cleanest result; barley-grass powder resists a spoon.
- Drink it straight away — the powder settles within a minute or two.
- Milk, soy milk, apple juice or unsweetened yoghurt all work in place of water and blunt the grassy note; they also add their own calories, which plain water does not.
Frequency: One sachet a day. It is a food, so there is no course to complete and no loading period.
Ingredients & Nutrition
Ingredients, in the maker's declared order (source: retail listing reproducing the Japan Gals SC declaration): barley grass, glucose, dextrin, fructose, maltodextrin, fruit juice powder, plant fermentate, carrot powder, modified starch, tomato powder, and further ingredients.
Modified starch is a processing additive, so this is not an additive-free drink. The two sugars near the top of the list are the other reason to read the declaration rather than the headline.
Nutrition panel. The maker does not publish one for this product online. We are not reconstructing it from a category average — the declaration is printed on the box you receive, and if you need it before ordering, write to us and we will read it off a box in Kobe.
Cautions
- This is a food, not a medicine. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease
- If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking prescription medication or under medical supervision, ask your doctor before starting any supplement
- Stop taking it and consult a doctor if it disagrees with you
- Never swallow the powder dry — always dissolve it in liquid first, or it can catch in the throat
- Keep out of the reach of small children
- Store away from direct sunlight, heat and damp; finish an opened sachet the same day
- Contains added sugars: glucose and fructose are both declared high in the ingredient list. Factor that in if you are managing sugar intake
- The allergen line is on the box, not online. If you have a food allergy, read it before the first sachet

FAQ
Who actually makes this?
Japan Gals SC Co., Ltd. The Shopify vendor field on this listing reads "Aojiru DX", which is the product name rather than a company; that is a data correction on our side and it is queued.
How much sugar is in it?
The maker does not publish a nutrition panel online, so we cannot give you a gram figure without guessing, and we will not guess. What we can tell you is the order of the declaration: barley grass, then glucose, then dextrin, then fructose. The grams are on the box.
What does the Monde Selection medal mean?
It is an entered award judged largely on taste and presentation, not a health assessment, and producers pay to enter. Japan Gals states they won one in 2022. We repeat it as their claim and not as evidence of anything nutritional.
Is this the same as the other DX aojiru you sell?
No. The other one is the enzyme version: kale, barley grass and bitter melon with 139 ferments, matcha flavour and stevia. This one is the fruit version with 82 ferments and 16 fruits. Different formula, different allergen picture — check both if you are choosing between them.
Why is there no barcode on this page?
Because no source publishes one for the 24-sachet box and we do not print barcodes we have not verified. The maker's model number is 1974/1979. An absent GTIN is a known problem for us and it is flagged internally.
