| - Wikipedia Article About Prune juice on Wikipedia Prune juice is more fiber-rich than plum juice and is often marketed as a way to increase regularity.
- Prune juice is made by softening prunes through steaming and then putting them through a pulper to create a watery puree. Prunes and their "juice" contain the natural laxative dihydrophenylisatin (related to isatin). Faster results are obtained by heating the prune juice. Prunes also contain dietary fiber (about 6%, or 0.06 g per gram of prune). Prunes and prune juice are thus common home remedies for constipation. Prunes also have a high antioxidant content. In China, the popular summer drink suanmeitang, made with sour prunes, is sometimes thought to have positive effects on acidity in the body.

- Although generally unpopular among Humans for its bitter taste, the Klingon Worf was known to enjoy prune juice, which he proclaimed "a warrior's drink" when he was introduced to it by Guinan aboard the USS Enterprise-D in 2366. (TNG: "Yesterday's Enterprise" ) Worf's Human adoptive parents, Sergey and Helena Rozhenko, were surprised when Guinan told them Worf enjoyed the drink, as he had never shown an interest in Human foods and beverages with them. (TNG: "Family" ) Worf often ordered an extra large prune juice. (DS9: "To the Death", "Let He Who Is Without Sin...")
- Prune juice was an Earth beverage, made from the juice of prunes, a variety of plum. It is noted for being rich in fiber. Admiral Luther Whitetree offered prune juice to Klingon Captain Krenn while visiting the Federation, though he quickly thought better of it, noting that the Medical Corps would object. (TOS novel: The Final Reflection) Jadzia Dax began to drink prune juice based on Worf's recommendation. Dax disliked it at first, but thought she might come to like it.

(TOS novel: The Final Reflection) Guinan introduced Worf to prune juice in 2366. He pronounced it "a warrior's drink," and it thereafter became a favorite drink of his, on both the USS Enterprise and Deep Space 9. (TNG episode: "Yesterday's Enterprise" DS9 episode: "The Way of the Warrior", et. al.) Jadzia Dax began to drink prune juice based on Worf's recommendation. Dax disliked it at first, but thought she might come to like it. (DS9 novel: The Heart of the Warrior) By 2380, prune juice had become the largest export from Earth to the Klingon Empire.

(TNG: "Yesterday's Enterprise" ) Worf's Human adoptive parents, Sergey and Helena Rozhenko, were surprised when Guinan told them Worf enjoyed the drink, as he had never shown an interest in Human foods and beverages with them. (TNG: "Family" ) Worf often ordered chilled prune juice at Quark's on Deep Space 9, as well as in the mess hall aboard the USS Defiant. (DS9: "The Way of the Warrior", "The Quickening") Worf often ordered an extra large prune juice. (DS9: "To the Death", "Let He Who Is Without Sin...") Quark recounted an occasion that Worf toasted Ch'Pok with prune juice at Worf's hearing in 2372. (DS9: "Rules of Engagement") Jadzia Dax once told Worf that "for a Klingon who was raised by Humans, wears a Starfleet uniform, and drinks prune juice, you're pretty attached to 'tradition'." While pining for Grilka, Worf took solace in the drink. (DS9: "Looking for par'Mach in All the Wrong Places") Shortly after Doctor Bashir prescribed to Odo – who was, at the time, living in humanoid form – that he had to relax, Odo admitted, "And it helped.... That, and the prune juice." (DS9: "The Begotten") Worf's fondness for prune juice was conceived by Ronald D. Moore while working on the writing of "Yesterday's Enterprise" , taking inspiration from the Star Trek novel The Final Reflection, in which author John M. Ford talked about how Klingons loved fruit juices. "I thought that was really cute and fun," said Moore, "so I threw this in the script."
