Juicing!!!

I have been asked this question at least 100 times by you here on Facebook, so I am going to hopefully explain to you what I have been told by the great master teachers of Juice Therapy, Dr. Max Gerson and Dr. Norman Walker.

So, here we go!

The reason for juicing is to separate the juice from the fiber, so our body can assimilate the juices immediately, so that when you do drink that pulp free juice, which is now predigested, 100% of the juices go into our stomach immediately, without taxing our body, into the intestinal wall, through our portal vein, into the liver, and into our bloodstream to feed our 100 trillion cells!

That is precisely WHY juicing is far superior to blending. I truly hope you can understand, that when you blend foods together, it takes a long time to digest these foods, because they have been blended together, and now the stomach has to use more and more if its enzymes to digest it. Of course our mouths have enzymes called ptyalin that converts starches into dextrose and maltose, more commonly known also as salivary amylase, but when you are blending your foods, these enzymes are inhibited because they have been blended.

Let me further explain.

We need these enzymes to thoroughly mixed with your foods, while we are masticating our foods, so we can break the complex carbohydrates into simple starches and sugars for utilization by the human body.

But when we blend them, we are drinking the entire amount (which is pulp and juice together) and you haven't chewed the blended foods, so where is the body's ability to break it down? It can't do such a great job, so that is why juicing is far superior than blending.

When you are blending, you still have the cellulose fiber, no matter how minute you think you have thought the blender has broken it down, you still have the cellulose fiber that needs chewing for superior digestion and assimilation.

However, when we juice, we automatically don't have to worry about the pulp, and that's why I have always said, these juices, when extracted properly from the pulp, are pre-digested, and absorbed by the intestines 100%!

There is a caveat to this.....it's still very important to drink your juices slowly, so don't think you can gulp them down just because they are pre-digested! Drink slowly always. After all, it takes a long time to prepare the juicer and the produce, and the clean up....so enjoy your beautifully coloured and gorgeous juice!

I am going to film a short version of this talk today, so hopefully I can download it (with the help of our son) onto Youtube and then bring it here to Facebook, so you can really GET what I am saying!

All the best to everybody, and my old slogan seems fitting today......

"It's the JUICE of the FIBER that feeds you!"
