Juicing Recipes & Exclusive Savings on The Total Juicer Pro

Want to live a healthier lifestyle? Wake up with more energy? Try the Total Juicer Pro from Viatek Consumer Products Group! There is no denying the supreme health benefits of juicing. Not only will a glass of freshly squeezed juice kick-start your morning, it will improve your overall health and well being.  

NOW: $50 OFF!!

The Viatek Slow Juicer produces more juice and retains up to 60% more vitamins than ordinary juicers. It is designed with an augur mechanism that presses the juice, rather than grating or shredding the food. Because it operates at a low speed, vegetables and fruit retain more heat-sensitive vitamins like vitamin C. 

Most juicer 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 Total Juicer Pro is different, utilizing a masticating and pressing method of extraction, much like that employed by wine makers for thousands of years. Known as a "slow juicer" for its operation at only 80 RPMs and 150 watt power usage, the Viatek Total Juicer Pro actually releases more of the 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. 

One look, one taste and the difference is deliciously recognizable! 

Additional Product Features:

Healthy: Works with any kind of fruit or vegetable

Versatile: Juices fruits, vegetables, leafy greens, wheat grass, nuts and soybeans. 

Dual Stage: crushes contents before pressing and ejecting pulp. 

No-clog design: Built-in rotary brush cleans as it juices and pulp is automatically separated.

Easy to clean: Rinse with warm water between juicing or take it apart for effortless cleaning. 

Recipes:

These healthy recipes are delicious and easy to make. Feel free to add greens, such as kale and spinach to any of the recipes for added nutrition.

The Healthy Snacking Alternative

Looking for a healthy snack that fills you up and keeps you satisfied? Grab your EZ Popcorn Maker! 

According to Shape Magazine, popcorn contains more antioxidants than fruits and veggies! Because the antioxidants in popcorn kernels and hulls are more concentrated, a new study finds that popcorn has TWICE the amount of antioxidants found in fluid-rich produce such as fruit and veggies due to its lower content of  water. 

So go ahead and pop away! Popcorn is a low-calorie, high-fiber snack that is a antioxidant rich member of the whole grain family. 

Maximize Health Benefits:

• Ditch the extra butter and salt.
• Pop it yourself with the EZ Popcorn Maker: Instead of using butter or oil try using sunflower oil. Sunflower oil can lower cardiovascular diseases and chance of heart attack. 
• Add herbs and spices (which are also packed with antioxidants). Try: chipotle seasoning, cinnamon, garlic powder, or blends like apple pie spice, or salt-free Italian herbs.

Total Juicer Pro: Support a Healthier Lifestyle & Fight Disease

There's no denying the supreme health benefits of juicing. Not only will a glass of freshly squeezed juice kick-start your morning, it will improve your overall health and well being. But did you know that your juicer can actually prevent cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and osteoporosis? 

The Total Juicer Pro from Viatek Consumer Products Group is a slow juicer that produces more juice and retains up to 60% more vitamins than ordinary juicers. It is designed with an augur mechanism that presses the juice, rather than grating or shredding the food. Because it operates at a low-speed, vegetables and fresh fruit retain more heat-sensitive vitamins like vitamin c. A glass of freshly squeezed juice offers an abundance of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, phytonutrients  and antioxidants that help remove some of the toxins we are exposed to everyday. 

The difference between real fruit juice and the juice found in stores:

The juice that you purchase at the supermarket is combined with artificial flavors andsweeteners. Real fruit juice, on the other hand is packed with nutrients and antioxidants that keep you healthy and fight disease!

Some antioxidants found in fruits/veggies:

Polyphenol: 

A powerful antioxidant widely distributed in plant foods. 

Lycopene:

According to cancer.org, "Lycopene is an antioxidant compound that gives tomatoes and certain other fruits and vegetables their color. It is one of the major carotenoids in the diet of North Americans and Europeans. Furthermore, "lycopene may lower the risk of heart disease, lower cholesterol, enhance the body's defenses, and protect enzymes, DNA, and cellular fats." 

{Source: cancer.org}

Beta carotene:

Beta-carotene is a member of the carotenoids. Carotenoids are highly pigmented, fat-soluble compounds found in many vegetables including: carrots, sweet potatoes, squash, spinach, and green peppers. 

Flavonoid:

This powerful antioxidant, according to psychologytoday.com, "has antihistamine, antimicrobial, memory, and even mood enhancing properties." Generally speaking, if you are looking for fruits and vegetables with flavonoids, the more deeply-hued the plants, the more flavonoids it contains.  

Some examples of flavonoids include: Apples, green tea, and pomegranates. (And red wine for you wine lovers out there!)

Other benefits of juicing include:

The mind becomes more alert and creative. Nutrients found in fresh juice help the mind revive.

Juicing is quick & easy

Juicing helps you lose weight faster

Juicing is economical.
