TIPS ON JUICING
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.
PURCHASING AND STORAGE OF
FRUIT AND VEGETABLES
• Always wash fruit and vegetables before
juicing.
• Always use fresh fruit and vegetables for
juicing.
• To save money and obtain fresher
produce, purchase fruit or vegetables
that are in season.
• Keep your fruit and vegetables ready for
juicing by washing them before storing.
• Most fruits and hardier type vegetables
can be stored at room temperature. The
more delicate and perishable items such
as tomatoes, berries, leafy greens, celery,
cucumbers and herbs should be stored
in the refrigerator until required.
PREPARATION OF FRUIT AND
VEGETABLES
• If using fruits with hard or inedible skins
such as mangoes, melons or pineapple,
always peel before juicing.
• Citrus fruit can be juiced in the juicer if
peeled first.
• All fruits with pits, hard seeds or stones
such as nectarines, peaches, mangoes,
apricots, plums and cherries must be
pitted before juicing.
• A small amount of lemon juice can
be added to apple juice to prohibit
browning.
NOTE
Your juicer makes invigorating, frothy
orange juice. Simply peel the oranges
and juice. (It is best to refrigerate
oranges before juicing).
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.
