Alright this is John Kohler with discoutjuicers.com you got me, I'm just making my fresh carrot

juice in the Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer today. The reason for this episode is a very important

one. It's because I want to explain you guys that there is more fresh made juice than just

the fiber. You might be thinking wait a second John, your juicing in the juicer. The whole

purpose of the juicer is remove the fiber right?

I mean as you guys can see we made this fresh juice right here and over on this side you're

saying John that's all the pulp man, that's all the fiber. You're saying juice that's

extracted liquid sugar man, that's bad for you. Well you're going to want to pay attention

to videos because it's one of the most important video I ever made on this YouTube channel. 

So the first thing I would say that there's two types of fiber there's the insoluble fiber

that is pretty much all extracted in the Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer, if I squeeze this  insoluble

fiber out is pretty good. It's pretty dry, it got like a lot of the juice out. And then

there's soluble fiber. So this soluble fiber dissolves in liquids, in water. Guess what

juice is? It's all water, it's all liquids. So there's still the soluble fiber in the

juice. Furthermore depending on what juicer you use there's also going to be the insoluble

fiber in the juice. So what we're going to do now this is the

juice that came out of the Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer. We're going to go ahead and pour it

through this sieve right here. And as you guys can see the juice coming out the bottom

has been sieved but then in this top sieve right here, we're left all the fiber. All

the insoluble fiber there's already soluble fiber in there and check it out the Kuvings

Whole Slow Juicer actually leaves a bunch of the insoluble fiber in the juice. So if

you drink the juice you're getting the insolvable and the soluble if you don't strain it. Of

course many people will strain out their juices because they don't like the extra fiber, but

I do encourage you to drink the juice with the fiber because there's many nutrients in

the fiber.  Now I know why you guys are like have a NutriBullet

or a Vitamix and like blend stuff up. You guys don't ever juice because you're like

using juicing is a waste of time because you know lose the fiber. So we just showed that

there's two types of fiber and in certain juicers you get some fiber and to you further

illustrate this point I made up a chart, I'll put up a link down below though this video

to this chart. You can download all our website discountjuicers.com.

This chart shows the total fiber soluble and insoluble fiber in different produce items.

So many common items that would be juice for example kohlrabi in one cup has 4.9 grams

of total fiber and of that that 1.5 is insoluble that's like this side right the hard fiber

and 3.4 grams is soluble fiber. So in the call kohlrabi there's actually more soluble

fiber in it. So you're going to get more of the fiber if you juice the kohlrabi in you

because it's soluble in yeah, because it's soluble, it's in there. Maybe it's not a hundred

percent of all the soluble fiber because some maybe still on this side that didn't get extracted.

But lets go down the carrots. The carrots basically have a forty eight percent of the

fiber in here in the soluble kind. So even when you're using juicing carrot juice and

you're drinking carrot juice that's been filtered out like this, you're getting nearly half

the fiber from the carrots. So you're still getting fiber even in the juice and some people

think that there's no fiber in juice. Well yes, there's soluble fiber and if you don't

strain it out you're going to get the insoluble fiber as well. 

And you know what people say John, reason why you shouldn't juice is because when you

drink the juices it goes right your bloodstream because there's no fiber in it. Once again

there's two types of fiber, the insoluble and that's the kind the kind of keep things,

keep you regular right, keeps things moving through your digestive tract and there's the

soluble kind of fiber that is actually one of the roles of this fiber is to slow down

the absorption of the sugars into your blood stream.

So even if you're drinking a fresh juice right that you made yourself in your juicer we're

not talking about this kind of juice here. This juice is heat process juice, ultra-fine

filtered, I don't even know if they use chemical extraction who knows what the heck they're

doing to this stuff. I'm only talking today about fresh made fruit and vegetable juices

that you make yourself in your home. I'm not even already talking about like HPP juice

or cold press juice you buy at your juice bar. I want you guys to make your juices fresh

yourself because the minute you break open the cell walls like we're doing here, the

nutrients start to oxidize and we're going to talk more about that in just a second.

But before we do I want to talk about it another very important soluble fiber that it will

be in your juice if you're using juicing two very important a root vegetables that I would

encourage you guys use on a regular basis and are they are right here. Yacon, I grew

this yacon myself, and this is jicama. Both of these have up fruit tans which are actually

soluble fiber that actually feed the beneficial flora in your intestines. This is very critical

for health in my opinion and most Americans simply do not eat enough fiber, both soluble

and insoluble fiber. So if you're one of those guys that just eats

a lot of meat, guess what you're not getting fiber and this juice will have way more fiber

than a meal of just  hundred percent meat right. I'm not saying that we don't need fiber,

we absolutely need fiber. But there are more important nutrients in my opinion and based

on my research and based on scientific studies in the juice then just the fiber. So let's

get into that next.  So now I want to share with you guys a published

study that came out in 2013 from a university in Korea. This actually talked about the influence

of extraction method on quality and functionality of broccoli juice.  They took broccoli and

they put the broccoli through a Kuvings Slow Juicer, similar to this one, they also took

that same broccoli and they put it through a high speed, centrifugal ejection style machine

and they took that same broccoli and put it into a blender that runs an access or at ten

thousand RPM to basically grind it all up. Now if I asked you, okay which one is healthier?

A lot of you guys would probably say oh man John the blended stuff that's way better because

you got the fiber, you got the juice you got everything in there right. Well that's not

what this study showed.  Let me go ahead and throw up some slides there

for you. So what you're looking at now is actually the total polyphenol and flavonoid

content of the juice or the blended mixture of the broccoli. And you guys can see the

slow juicer had higher levels of polyphenols and flavonoids even if it wasn't a hundred

percent you know an extract everything out of the fiber. This published study shows that

there's more polyphenols and flavonoids in the juice made with the slow juicer. 

Now why would this happen? Well if you think about it in and you're kind of logical like

I am, you think well what's going on here? Why is the high speed or the blender have

less polyphenols? Well here's the thing all these nutrients are locked inside the fibrous

cells and this is why they say like cooking your tomatoes or cooking your carrots you're

going to get more nutrition because cooking destroys cell walls and makes the nutrients

available, it also destroys and lessons some of those nutrients at the same time.

Whereas when you're using a juicer you're not including the heat and the juicer basically

breaks open the cell walls and exposes the very valuable nutrients to air. What happens

at that point is oxidation. And because the blender runs at a constant cycle at high speed

and is constantly sucking things in, there's more times the produce is basically hit with

the blades right and there's more air being infused. So like if you're beating somebody

up right. You just hit them once maybe they might have a bruise, but you beat the like

a hundred times they're going to have bruises all over it's like pretty bad. 

So by constantly beating up the produce and having more blade contact time you're going

to oxidizing more it's going to lower the nutrition in my opinion. The same thing by

using a high speed juicer. The high speed juicer's spinning at 10,000 RPM, it's going

really fast and once you put the produce in there it's micro-grated and air's being flung

all around it, it flies through the juicing screen and comes out and those types of juicers

leave very little insoluble fiber in the juice, if any. And that also will lower the nutrition

based on my opinions and based on the slide you guys just saw.

Then finally of course the slow juicer that runs at a slow process under a hundred RPMs,

in this situation really sixty to eighty RPM and so that's a much more gentler process

in its not constantly hitting the produce like a blender is. So there's more polyphenols

and flavonoids in a juice made with a slow juicer then a fast high speed juicer or a

blender.  Now this is all good because now we've seen

by published research there's more polyphenols in there but what is the effect of the polyphenols

in a study, in a test? So they did testing in a test tubes or Petri dishes or however

they do that and well throw this slide up. And it showed that the antioxidant activity

and free radical scavenging effects of the juice made in the slow juicer was higher than

both the high speed juicer and the blender. So this is showing you the real actual effects.

And so this is really important because oxidation occurs in our bodies all the time and I want

to have the most antioxidants properties in whatever I'm eating.  

So why, especially if you're over blending that's really bad, why lose nutrients? This

is important because even in this next slide I'll throw up, it shows that the anticancer

activity when they took the juices of that slow juice, the high speed juicer and the

blender and put them in in a Petri dish with live active cancer cells. They used six different

kind of active cancer cells in the in the majority of the kind of cancer. As you guys

can see the blue line which is the slow juicer had significantly more effective of the growth

inhibition of the cancer cells.  So I don't know about you guy, but I every

it seems like every year, every few months, I hear of a friend of mine that I knew that

loses their life of cancer. And you know do you want to have more cancer fighting ability

or you want to get more fiber? The choice is yours, I'm just here to share the information

that I learned that I try to share with you guys so you guys to be the healthiest you

can be and that's why I'm here today in my opinion.  

I almost lost my life and I take my health very seriously as I believe every American

and every person around the world, everybody watching this should. Because you need to

take your health into your own hands because if you go to the doctor you know in most cases

they're not going to tell you the healthiest thing to do in my opinion. And so I want to

maximize the amount of polyphenols and flavonoids and anti-oxidants and cancer fighting properties

like the isocyanthianates and the lycopenes  and the different lutein and zeaxanthin in all

the fresh fruits and vegetables by extracting them the best way possible. The best way possible

based on studies I've seen is by juicing them and that's why I would encourage you guys

to juice. Now I'm not going to say you guys have to

juice or not to juice, but here's the thing. If you guys blend you're losing nutrients,

Now the best juice  you guys don't have to buy, the best juicer we're given for free.

It's our teeth man. If you want to take the time to take your carrots and chew it into

a mush so it's juice and fine plup not just two chews and swallow, you want to chew every

mouthful like a hundred chews and then swallow it. You're going to get the best of both worlds

with the fiber and stuff totally broken down at low speed. But don't use the blender right.

That being said, the blenders will reduce nutrition I would much rather have you guys

that eat a lot of fast food blender a green smoothie, blend a smoothie up, blend something

up and drink it instead of going out to fast food or even eat vegan junk food products,

animal food product analogs, or all these processed foods. We want to process the foods

at home, we want to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables to get their benefits, right?
