all about juicing
Introduction
Juicing is a great way to integrate fruits and vegetables into your diet, especially if you do not like to eat whole fruits and vegetables. It can help you meet the daily recommendations for these foods as well as allow you to consume a wide variety of fruits and vegetables in a tasty way. Juicing is usually done with a machine which turns raw fruits and vegetables into liquid and pulp. The machine chops the fruits and vegetables into tiny pieces and spins them, separating the juice from the pulp.
History
Even before juicers were invented fruits were mashed. Text from the Dead Sea Scrolls, "A pounded mash of pomegranate and fig" resulting in "profound strength and subtle form,” indicates that juicing has been around since ancient times. The first living juicer was invented in the 1930’s by Dr. Norman Walker. He called this juicer the Norwalk Juice and it is still on the market to this day. In 1954 the first masticating juicer was invented, The Champion, which can juice almost every type of vegetable including leafy ones. The Greenpower juicer was invented in 1993 and was the first twin gear juicer. It was created by Richard Kim who was presented the grand prize at the 9th International Invention/ New Products Exposition in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in May 1993.
Modern Juicing
Nowadays juicing s is used for a variety of reasons, whether it is to add a delicious snack to your diet or to help alleviate ailments such as skin disease or immune disorders. It is now known that much of the fiber from fruits and vegetables is contained in the pulp so it would be a good idea to add some back into the drink. If you do not like to drink pulp, try baking the pulp into a muffin or cookie recipe as a healthy alternative. Modern juicers make juicing easy and fun.
