Types of Juicer

Juicing is an essential component for daily life. We recommend juicers that we have found to personally generate quality enzyme, mineral or micro-nutrient content.

Regenerates the body by flooding it with nutrients from almost 20 pounds / 9 kilograms of organic fruits and vegetables daily, most of which is used to make fresh raw juice, one glass every hour, 10 to 13 times a day.

WARNING!
BAD SEEDS: While NUTRITION EXTRACTION can be amazingly beneficial, not all fruit seeds and rinds are created equal. The following seeds and pits contain a chemical that releases cyanide into the body when ingested.
DO NOT USE the following seeds and pits in the juicers:
  • Apple Seeds
  • Apricot Pits
  • Cherry Pits
  • Plum Pits

How to select the best juicer?

High Yield - Can squeeze every single bit of juice out of vegetables and fruits

Slow Juicer - The traditional high-speed rotation of the blades and the frictional heat from a standard juicer will cause juice to create layers. Slow speed 40-100 revolutions per minute(RPM) promotes room temperature juice which contains high nutrient retention or enzyme juice with less oxidation, as the food is squeezed under pressure by an auger like a big screw.

Multiple stage juicing - can separate the juice and the pulp for easy digestion 

Easy to clean- no more hassle of disassemble and get juicer blades clean

Juices: vegetables, fruits, bean and nuts

Selected juicer extractor:

  • Hurom Slow Juicer

Why slow juicer:

Economic/ high yield - get the maximum amount of juice with a minimum amount of food

Healthier - They are recommended by many health authorities for cancer patients, juices produced are in environment temperature, less oxidation and long lasting juice for 48-hours.

Juices - juices fruits, vegetables, leafy greens and wheat grass, nuts and soya bean.

Clog-free - automatic separate pulp from juice. Rotating brush cleans the bowl while it juice

Dual stage juicing - juice is extracted through the first crushing stage and follow by pressing stage before the pulp is ejected; resulting in more juice and some pulps for healthy drink

Easy to clean - Simply rinse with water between jucing or take it apart easily for effortless cleaning. It takes about 15 seconds to disassemble a slow speed juicer and less than 2 minutes to thoroughly clean one. Easy cleaning function also allows to rinse out most of the materials which are left in the juicer by simply pouring water while operates.

Silence - Minimize the noise by squeezing slowly rather than grinding with fast speed

Safety - use auger no sharp blades

Limitation - Make pasta and noodle, seed and nut butters, grind dry coffee bean
