THE INSIDE INFORMATION ON JUICING

Although juice drinks are usually developed with flavor, texture and aroma at the forefront, the health benefits certainly add to the pleasurable taste experience. Up to 70% of the nutrient content of fruit and vegetables is found in the juice. Liquids extracted from fresh fruit and vegetables form an important part of a well balanced diet. Fresh fruit and vegetable juices are an easy to make source of vitamins and minerals. Juices are rapidly absorbed

into the blood stream therefore being the quickest way in which the body can digest nutrients. When you make your own juices, you have complete control over what you include in them. You select the ingredients and decide if you need to use sugar, salt or

other flavoring agents.

The right technique

When juicing a variety of ingredients with varying textures, start with the softer textured ingredients on low-speed then change to high speed for harder texture ingredients.

If you are juicing herbs, sprouts or leafy green vegetables either wrap them together to form a bundle or juice them in the middle of a combination of ingredients on low- speed to obtain the best extraction.
