Re: Don't be afraid to adjust your dosages when healing naturally
hmm I never heard of the thing by Rev. George Malkmus in his Hallelujah Diet materials.
I wonder if he did actual testing on the juices before and after storage to test if the enzymes content was actually similar..does anyone have a link to the actual site or studies that say this.
If it were me I would try to put my produce precut into bags for what I was going to juice in the coming days and try toi jucie as much fresh as possible saving the jars only for those occassions when fresh
juicing was impossible.
Also I did see these hints on
juicing when lookin around
How can I increase the quality of juice that I make with my juicer?
There are a few ways I would suggest:
* Start off with the coldest possible produce- leave the produce in the fridge before juicing. Set your fridge a little colder.
* Do not overload the juicer. Feed in only a little produce at a time. Let it work itself out of the juicer before adding more. Overloading will cause the juicer to work harder, causing excess friction and generating heat.
* While juicing, occasionally juice a ICE CUBE, which will help to reduce the temperature of the blade/auger and the juice. It will also dilute the juice.
* Be sure to inspect the cutting blade (on centrifugal juicers) or cutter (on the champion juicer). Replace if they are dull. Dull blades do not cut as well, and thus will cause excess friction, which generates heat.
* Juice in small batches, rather than "juice marathons". The longer the juicer runs, the warmer things get.
* You can put your
juicing parts (blade or auger) in the fridge or freezer, so they starting at a low temperature to begin with. (This step is not necessary in my opinion, and may cause premature failure of the juicer parts.)
* Start off by juicing the highest quality produce available. In some studies, Organic crops have been shown to be higher in some vitamins, essential minerals and phytonutrients.
* If your juicing with a CHAMPION Juicer, chop produce into smaller pieces. Produce with strings will get stuck around the cutting blade and cause more friction and heat. (especially
Celery and leafy greens with long stems)
* JUICE CONSISTANTLY and DRINK YOUR JUICE AS SOON AS YOU MAKE IT (DO NOT STORE IT) FOR HIGHEST QUALITY. THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR, IN MY OPINION ABOVE ALL OTHERS. IT'S MORE IMPORTANT THAN WORRYING ABOUT BOTH HEAT and OXIDATION.
