Enzymes are organic catalysts that increase the rate in which foods are broken down and absorbed by the body.

Living Foods From Juicing

The juiceman Jay Kordich is known for his statement “All life on earth emanates from the green of the plant” Raw fruits and vegetables are natural ways of giving us life.

A quote from John Lust, “ Drink Your Troubles Away”

“Nature's medicines are locked in the cells of growing plants and released in their juices. These juices, subtle in their action, yet more potent than any medicine, and without toxic effect of drugs, can eliminate or prevent many of the chronic and degenerative diseases with which human beings are afflicted. Fresh fruit juices are the cleansers of the human system. Vegetable juices are the regenerators and builders of the body. When we consider that vegetables and fruits have been naturally cooked by solar energy, that they contain all the elements the sun and earth have buried deep in their fibre cells, that they are nature's live-cell foods, then it follows as logical that if we crush the juices from the cells of those fresh fruits and vegetables and put their health giving fluid into our blood stream, we will receive a share of their vital energy.

Fruits and vegetables contain antioxidants and are super blood cleaners. For example when you eat carrots, your body may absorb only a small percentage of it's nutrients, however when you drink it's juice your body absorbs almost all of the nutrients. They help heal, repair, and nourish damaged and weakened cells in our body.

When beginning healthy juicing, the greener the vegetables the more nutritionally valuable they are. Seeds and nuts can be added as well. They contain protein and fat that is needed to fuel your body. They also assist with a healthy immune system and contain important amino acids for the brain.

If you have not purchased organic fruit and vegetables you must soak the produce to remove any toxins before beginning. When using vegetables don't hesitate to use stems and leaves, except for carrot and rhubarb greens as they contain toxic substances. Because the skins of oranges and grapefruits contain a toxic substance that should not be consumed in large quantities and are somewhat bitter, it is best to peel these fruits before beginning. However the white pithy part of the fruit contains valuable bioflavonoids and vitamin C.

Drinking carrot juice is one of the most popular ways that you can provide a boost to your diet. Frequently referred to as the miracle juice, due to the carrot juices many healthful benefits, many people around the world have seen tremendous health improvements from drinking carrot juice on a regular basics. Not only is it delicious on it's own, it is ideal to combine with other juices to make a drink the whole family can enjoy. Carrots are one of the richest sources of Vitamin A, as well as an excellent source of other vitamins, such as B complex. It has high levels of calcium, copper, magnesium, potassium, sodium phosphorous, chlorine, sulphur, and iron. The vitamin A assists the body in it's vision, good tooth and bone development, healthy reproduction, healthy skin, resistance to infection and disease, and healing dry rough, scaly skin problems.

Beet roots are both powerful cleansers and builders of the blood and kidney's, therefore it's consumption should be limited.

Below is a picture of our three year old grandson Karver, and I , he is enjoying some fresh vegetable juice that "Poppa" just made for us. ( He has the juice lip, that traditionally goes with milk, but in our home it's juice!) He loves our juice and we love to have him consume it knowing he is getting all that goodness in one tiny glass full.

This is the juicer our family uses each day
