THE INSIDE INFORMATION
ON JUICING
Although the juice drinks contained in this
booklet were developed with flavor, texture
and aroma at the forefront, the health
benefits certainly add to the pleasurable
taste experience.
95% 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
healthy diet. Fresh fruit and vegetables juices
are an easy 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 fruit and
vegetable juices, you have complete
control over what is included. Select the
ingredients and decide if you need to add
sugar, salt or other flavoring agents after
juicing. Freshly extracted juices should
be consumed immediately after they
have been processed to avoid a loss of
vitamin content.
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. Refer to the Fruit and
Vegetable Facts chart (page 19-20).
• Keep your fruit and vegetables ready for
juicing by washing and drying 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.
TIPS ON JUICING
PREPARATION OF FRUIT
AND VEGETABLES
• If using fruits with hard or inedible skins
such as mangoes, guava, melons or
pineapple, always peel before juicing.
• Some vegetables, such as cucumbers
can be processed unpeeled depending
on the softness of the skin and the
juicing requirements.
• All fruits with large pits, hard seeds or
stones such as nectarines, peaches,
mangoes, apricots, plums and cherries
must be pitted before juicing.
• Ensure vegetables such as beets,
carrots, etc. have all soil removed, are
well washed and trimmed of leaves
before juicing.
• Ensure fruits such as strawberries are
hulled before juicing and pears have
their stalks removed.
• Citrus fruit can be juiced in the Juice
Fountain™ Plus but remove the skin and
excess pit before juicing.
• A small amount of lemon juice can
be added to apple juice to reduce
discoloration.
NOTE:
Your Juice Fountain™ Plus makes
invigorating, frothy orange juice.
Simply peel the oranges and
remove any excess pith before
juicing. It is best to refrigerate
oranges before juicing.
