Re: Fastest juicer
Hi
Thanks for all your posts. Very informative. My conclusion for the best quality juice comes from slow chopping of the vegetables into very minute pieces, that is then pressed and squeezed. I read that the Norwalk actually runs at a faster rpm (3250 RPM) compared to the champion (1725 RPM). So although the norwalk presses better than the champion it chops faster, surely losing some quality.
Also from these posts it appears the study has not been done on a combined process of champion + peoples press to see if it extracts L-amino acid oxidase. I would imagine that in the Gerson days also, when the norwalk wasn't available to everyone, they chopped up vegetables by hand and then put it through a manual press of some kind - hence the success of it curing cancer, through slow processes, a lot of love and attention. Also despite scientific studies on extraction of particular enzymes and vitamins, there maybe something else about the whole symbiotic combination of ingredients that make it work in curing cancer that might never be realised by scientific tests.
So I conclude the best method is probably using the slowest vegetable chopper - (currently the Champion - please correct me if their is another) then putting the veg into a hydraulic press like the peoples press.
As for practicality and maximum speed with reasonable quality it seems the champion is the ideal solution.
