TIPS ON JUICING
THE INSIdE INFORMATION
ON JUICING
Although the juice drinks contained in this
booklet were developed with flavour, texture
and aroma at the forefront, the health
benefits certainly add to the pleasurable
taste experience.
70% of the nutrient content of fruit and
vegetables is found in the juice. Liquids
extracted from fresh fruits and vegetables
form an important part of a well-balanced
healthy diet. Fresh fruit and vegetable juices
are an easy source of vitamins and minerals.
Juices are rapidly absorbed into the blood
stream therefore being the quickest way in
which the body can digest nutrients.
When you make your own fruit and
vegetable juices, you have complete control
over what is included. Select the ingredients
and decide if you need to add sugar, salt
or other flavouring agents after juicing.
Freshly extracted juices should be consumed
immediately after they have been processed
to avoid a loss of vitamin content.

PREPARATION OF FRUIT ANd
vEGETABLES FOR JUICER
ATTACHMENT
•
If using fruits with hard or inedible
skins such as mangoes, citrus, melons or
pineapple, always peel before juicing.
•
Some vegetables, such as cucumbers,
can be processed un-peeled depending
on the softness of the skin and the
juicing requirements.
•
All fruits with large pits, hard seeds
or stones such as nectarines, peaches,
mangoes, apricots, plums and cherries
must be pitted before juicing.
•
Ensure vegetables such as beetroot,
carrots, etc. have all soil removed, are
well washed and trimmed of leaves
before juicing.
•
Ensure fruits such as strawberries are
hulled before juicing and pears have
their stalks removed.
•
Citrus fruit can be juiced in the juicer
but remove the skin and excess pith
before juicing.
•
A small amount of lemon juice can
be added to apple juice to reduce
discolouration.
NOTE
Your juicer makes invigorating,
frothy orange juice. Simply peel the
oranges and remove any excess pith
before juicing. It is best to refrigerate
oranges before juicing.
