What is Cold Pressed?

Cold Pressed is a method of juicing using a Cold Pressed Juicer. This involves a 2-step process of grinding and pressing the produce which extracts juice without generating heat.

Cold Pressed Juicers press the produce, causing minimal oxidation therefore allowing the juice to stay fresh longer.

What is the Difference?

A Centrifugal Juicer (what most people have at home

and in some juice bars, cafés, etc.) spins rapidly which creates heat that destroys vitamins, minerals and enzymes.

A Centrifugal’s blades rip apart the produce very quickly causing the juice to mix with air. This method oxidizes the juice, making

the molecules degrade faster and resulting in a shorter shelf life.

A Cold Pressed juice will last up to 4 days in the fridge, whereas a Centrifugal juice should be consumed immediately

to reap the most nutritional benefits.

Why do a Juice Cleanse?

A juice cleanse helps to detoxify the body by eliminating unwanted toxins and allowing the liver, our main detoxifying organ, to rest. It floods our body with an abundance of nutrients, improves energy and is a great way to reset our bodies or to kick start a healthy lifestyle or diet.

HOW LONG WILL THE JUICES LAST?

Cold-pressed juices last up to 4 days in the fridge with all the nutrients, vitamins and minerals still in tact.

WHAT ABOUT FIBER?

During the juicing process, insoluble fiber is extracted with the pulp while the soluble fiber remains. Soluble fiber absorbs water which keeps you full without adding extra calories to your diet and promotes healthy bowel movements. It also helps to reduce cholesterol levels along with keeping blood sugar levels under control.

WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT
TO CHOOSE ORGANIC?

Organic foods are free of chemicals, pesticides and genetically modified organisms (GMOs), therefore making them more beneficial to your health as they’re higher in nutrients and contain more antioxidants.

WHY SHOULD I CLEANSE?

Cold-pressed juices help detoxify the body by eliminating unwanted toxins and allowing the liver, which is our main detoxifying organ, to rest. It floods our body with an abundance of nutrients, improves energy and is a great way to reset our bodies – or to kick start a healthy lifestyle or diet.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I CLEANSE?

Cleansing regularly helps to reduce toxic build-up in our system so it may differ depending on the individual. It’s best when you feel your eating habits need to be cleansed or when you’re lethargic, bloated or out of alignment. Some people cleanse when the seasons change but you can cleanse to reset your system whenever you feel it is needed – just listen to your body.

WILL I LOSE WEIGHT DOING A CLEANSE?

During a cleanse you will lose unwanted water retention as you are flushing out your system. Many people do lose weight however, our juice cleanse is not a solution to lose weight but to focus on detoxifying the system, which contributes to weight-loss.

CAN I EAT ON MY CLEANSE?

During a cleanse, it is recommended that you do not eat to give your stomach a rest and let the nutrient-dense juice repair your gut. Eating will slow down the cleansing process but if you do need to eat, we recommend eating raw organic vegetables or soaked nuts and seeds.

ARE THERE ANY SIDE AFFECTS?

As with any cleanse, you will experience some detox-symptoms from toxins being released. This is a sign that it’s working so just remember to drink plenty of water to flush the toxins out of your body.
