Juicing is important because you get more out of your veggies by the simple fact of making it easier for your body to get the nutrients in one dose versus having to eat a pound of broccoli or carrots. This is a must have tool for any burgeoning or hardcore superfood enthusiast.

With the Hurom Slow Juicer you get to experience:

    • Dual Stage Juicing - juice is extracted through the first crushing stage and before the pulp is ejected, it is then squeezed during the second pressing stage; resulting in more juice, and extremely dry pulp.
    • Higher yields - in-house testing found the Hurom Slow Juicer yielded 50% more juice than a centrifuge juicer in 50% of the time
    • Economical - Get the greatest amount of juice from the least amount of fruits. Peels and skins can be also used in various pastries, jams, soups, etc.
    • Better Juice - Enjoy more antioxidants, better flavor and superior freshness of your juice. No frothing or foaming, and none of the separation that occurs with other juicers.
    • Self Cleaning - Simply pour water through to self clean the juicer when changing to another fruit, vegetable or leafy green. Save time!
    • Small Footprint - all of the performance of a masticating single auger juicer, but with less space requirements than most centrifuge-style juicers

And here is a great starter juice mix for you:

Juicing for health Choosing a juicer

Vegetable juicing

Vegetable juicing is critical to good health because it is an important source of raw food. Each of us needs raw foods every day, and juicing is an excellent way to make certain you receive large quantities of such raw foods.

Fruit juicing is certainly good for you, but it has one disadvantage over vegetable juicing: fruit juice tends toincrease insulin levels when consumed.

Vegetable juice does not raise insulin levels like fruit juice. The only exception to this would be carrot or beet juice which function similarly to fruit juice. Nevertheless, fruit juicing is certainly better for you and your children than drinking soda, which is a very bad idea.

 

 

  

Why should I juice vegetables rather than eat them whole?

Many of us have relatively compromised intestines as a result of poor food choices over many years. This limits our bodies' ability to absorb all the nutrients from the vegetables and juicing tends to facilitate this absortion.

Vegetable and fruit juicing is also well suited for the fast moving lifestyle which we pride ourselves in here in the West. It makes it possible for busy people to add more healing foods into their diets with minimal effort.

Can I make my vegetable juice in the morning and drink it later in the day?

Although this is much better than not drinking vegetable juice at all, juice is best drank freshly juiced. Vegetable juice is one of the most perishable foods there is and ideally it would be best to drink all of your juice immediately. However, if you are careful you can store your vegetable juice for up to 24 hours with only a moderate nutritional decline.

You can do this by putting the vegetable juice in a glass jar with an airtight lid and filling it to the very top. There should be as little air in the jar as possible because it is the OXYGEN in air that will "oxidize" and damage the juice. Think of a cut apple turning brown when exposed to air.

It's a good idea to use an opaque container to block out all light which would also damage the juice and then store it in the refrigerator until about 30 minutes prior to drinking since ideally the juice should be consumed at room temperature.

What type of vegetables should I juice?

Celery + fennel + cucumbers is a good combination that is easily tolerated by those just starting out with juicing.
