Processed vs. Natural Juices

This is a quick look at the differences between processed (canned or bottled) juices and fresh, natural juices that is made with your juice machine.



Processed Juices

Bottle juice is pasteurized and the nutrients are depleted.

Juices made from imported produce may carry traces of banned pesticides.

Juices from fruit concentrates do not contain the whole fruits and they may be nothing more than sugar water -- possibly made with chemicals in water from industrial sites.

Acids from juices can leech metal from cans, causing canned juice to spoil.

Wax and other chemicals found in juice containers can taint the juice.

Shrink-wrapped juice cartons come under high heat that depletes enzymes in juice.

Natural Juices made at home

Natural juices contain all the vitamins, minerals, fluids, enzymes, amino acids and chlorophyll (with no toxic additives) found in raw vegetables - thereby helping the body by:

Promoting growth and development

Assisting with digestion

Providing energy

Protecting against oxidation

Renewing cells

Enriching Blood

Benefits of juice

People with difficulty chewing can intake raw vegetables in juice form.

People to busy to eat a meal with vegetables can obtain the nourishment of a salad by drinking fresh juice.

Juice is easy on the stomach.

Drinking juice enables one to have more of a vegetable's nutrients than one would have by eating.

Juice is a good alternative for people who lack appetites.

Juice is a great nutrient source for babies and children who otherwise may not want vegetables.

Juice can help prevent acne in teenagers

We always recommend juicing organic fruits and vegetables whenever possible.
