My Life Juicer: What Makes Juicing So Powerful

Over the last couple days, I have highlighted the benefits of juicing as part of a well, balanced diet, but what does it all mean? Why are vegetables, legumes, seeds and nuts so powerful, and why are they beneficial ingredients in your juicing recipes? For starters, cells in the body require nutrients such as vitamins and minerals to function optimally. Fruits and vegetables are loaded with these essential vitamins and minerals! A glass of freshly pressed juice contains fiber, phytonutrients, antioxidants, and omega-3 fatty acids.

The Life Juicer, as we describe on our website, releases more vitamins, minerals, enzymes and phytonutrients than conventional juicers that rip and tear through foods at 10,000 RPMs. Most juice extractors on the market today chop, shred and strain; a method that wastes the the valuable nutrients in food due to overheating and brute force. With the Life Juicer, you can juice a variety of fresh fruit and vegetables without worrying about losing nutritional value. 

What is in your juice? 

Fiber: 

Fiber is the indigestible portion of plants. Diets high in fiber are associated with lower risks of heart disease, colon cancer, diabetes, and obesity. Especially beneficial for women, diets rich in fiber (up to 30 grams a day) can reduce the risk of breast cancer. 

Examples of fiber-rich fruits (perfect for juicing) include:

Fruits: Prunes, Pears, Mangoes, Apples, Raspberries, Raw blackberries, raw strawberries

Phytonutrients:

Phytonutrients are a family of chemicals found only in plants that often give that vibrant color to vegetables. These plant-based chemicals reduce the risk of cancer, prevent diseases and keep your body working properly. 

Examples of important phytonutrients include: 

1. Carotenoids: These powerful antioxidants tackle free radicals that damage tissues throughout the body. More than 600 carotenoids provide yellow, orange, and red colors in fruits and vegetables. Fruits and Veggies loaded with carotenoids ideal for juicing include: carrots, tomatoes, spinach, and kale. 
2. Ellagic Acids: This cancer fighting phytonutrient is found in a number of berries and other plants food. Throw in a few handfuls of strawberries or raspberries in your next juicing recipe and you will help your liver neutralize cancer-causing chemicals in your system. 
3. Flavonoids: According to WebMD, a large number of phytonutrients fall into the flavonoid category.  Examples of flavonoids include: apples, berries, grapes, citrus fruits, and onions. 

Antioxidants: 

Antioxidants keep the immune system strong and can be found in a variety of brightly colored fruits and vegetables. With so many different antioxidant-packed fruits and vegetables to chose from, you can easily create juice recipes that will keep you coming back for more. 

Here is a list of veggies and fruits loaded with antioxidants: beets, broccoli, carrots, kale, mangoes, peaces, spinach, tomatoes, kiwi, oranges, apples, red grapes, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and nectarines. 

Omega-3 Fatty Acids: 

Your juicer is not only for fruits and veggies! You can add nuts and soybeans to your recipes! Did you know that flaxseeds, chia seeds, walnuts, hemp seeds, and soy are loaded with omega-3 fatty acids and provide many nutritional benefits.

Juicing: How Healthy Is It?

As part of a balanced diet, juicing can be pose incredible health benefits. For starters, 95% of vitamins and enzymes our bodies need are found in the juice of raw fruits and vegetables. Juicing not only strengthens the immune system, but facilitates weight loss, increases energy levels, and reduces the risk of heart disease. Many people who incorporate juicing into their diet also report healthier, more radiant skin. 

But where do you start? How do you know which Juicer is best for you? 

To maintain optimal health benefits, it is wise to choose a juicer that retains the valuable nutrients found in raw fruits and vegetables. Many juice extractors on the market today chop, shred, and strain; a method that generates low yield and wastes much of the valuable nutrients found in food. The Life Juicer, from Viatek utilizes a masticating and pressing method of extraction, much like that employed by wine makers for thousands of years. 

Known as a "slow juicer", the Life Juicer operates at only 80 RPMs and actually releases more vitamins, minerals, enzymes and photonutrients than conventional juicers that rip and tear through foods at 10,000 RPMs and suck up to 1,500 watts of power. However, names can be deceiving as it actually juices more quickly than high-speed models, eliminates oxidation and separation and expels a dryer pulp for less waste! 

What can you juice?

• Fruit  (berries, bananas, oranges, lemons, apples, pears, mangoes) 
• Vegetables (Carrots, celery, cucumbers, broccoli)
• Soybeans
• Wheatgrass
• Leafy greens such as spinach and kale 

*Don't be afraid to garnish! According to Darya Rose, a food and health writer, and creator of SummerTomato.com, "A small amount of  a strong flavored item such as ginger, lemon, or mint, can make your juice a real pleasure to drink while adding highly concentrated antioxidants. 

*Balance juice out with protein (almond milk, Greek yogurt, flax seed, or peanut butter) 

Juicing Tips For an Optimal Juicing Experience

1. According to Raw-foods-diet-center.com, Go fresh, go organic. If you can, choose fresh organic vegetables and fruits for your vegetable juicing recipes. Fresh means more nutritional value and tastier juices, and organic means healthier drinks as these weren't sprayed with chemical pesticides. 
2. Leave the skins on your vegetables. Most of the nutritional value found in vegetables is in the skins. 
3. Vary your ingredients. Don't be afraid to get creative with a variety of vegetables and leafy greens. Add a fruit such as a pear to add a bit of sweetness to the concoction. 
4. Drink your juice on an empty stomach. The best time to drink juice is on an empty stomach or an hour before a meal. This maximizes the amount of nutrients absorbed into the body.

Viatek Launches Life Juicer the Healthy, Versatile Slow Juicer

Chattanooga, Tennessee, Summer 2013- Viatek Consumer Products Group is pleased to announce the launch of Life Juicer, an innovative slow juicer that produces more juice and retains up to 60% more vitamins than ordinary juicers. Most juice extractors on the market today chop, shred, and strain, a method that generates low yield and wastes much of the valuable nutrients in food. The Life Juicer is different, utilizing a masticating and pressing method of extraction, much like that employed by wine makers for thousands of years.

The Life Juicer is built using 80 RPM Cold Press Technology. Consumers simply place fruits and vegetables into the hopper and watch as the spiral auger pulls them in. The Life Juicer crushes, presses, and extracts up to 10 times the deep seeded nutrients and enzymes found in fruit and vegetables. As the auger gets tighter and tighter it squeezes every last drop of vital nutrient loaded liquid out, resulting in richer colored, better tasting juice that retains more vital minerals and vitamins. 

Ordinary juicers use brute force to extract juices from fruits and vegetables resulting in a mess to clean up. Known as the "slow juicer" for its operation at only 80 RPMs and 150 watt power usage, the Viatek Life Juicer actually releases more vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and photonutrients than conventional juicers that rip and tear through foods at 10,000 RPMs and suck up to 1,500 watts of power. However, names can be deceiving as it actually juices more quickly than high speed models, eliminates oxidation and separation and expels a dryer pulp for less waste. 

Healthier living has never been so easy or convenient! Juice a variety of ingredients including nuts, soybeans, wheat grass, fruits, and vegetables. Featuring a variety of recipes, the Life Juicer from Viatek Consumer Products Group is sure to appeal to not only the health conscious and savvy, but those looking to live a healthier lifestyle.
