JUICER

Juices are health food.
Gerson Therapy makes use of the enzymes that are naturally occurring in fruits and vegetables to deal with the cancer cell. (There is also the coffee eneama that helps in liver detox)

The juicier that is used plays an important role.

One of the recommended brand is the Champion Juicier. Nature's glory carries it at $699 (click to go to the link). We obtained a unit and it was delivered free to the house. If u purchase in the US, it is US$250 (US Shipping only) thereabouts but i am not so sure about the shipping. it is heavy.

I've appended a paragraph her about the champion juicer from Nature's glory website:-
The Champion Juicer is the answer to every juicing problem. Because it operates on the mastication process, the Champion Juicer chews the fibers and breaks up the cells of vegetables and fruits. This give you more fiber, enzymes, vitamins and trace minerals. This all results in a darker, richer color of the juice and a sweeter, richer more full-bodied flavor. 


I also understand Champion Juicer is good because the motor is separated from the rotating blade. This reduced the heat transfer and hence more enzymes and nutrients are left intact, compared with the conventional. And to get the most benefit out of these, Juice and drink immediately. Don't leave the juice standing. This is something related to the apple turning brown if we leave it around after cutting it. My clever friend from Medan who is practicing phytobiophysics gave a bright suggestion. Juice with ice. Ice keeps the temperature low.


It's really a lot of money right ? $699. Ever since we had the juicer ( and becoz it cost so much), we have been juicing at least once a day :) :) Maybe this is how things work.


 SUPERNATURE sells another model which is supposedly good as well, being able to keep more of the enzymes and nutrients, and you get more juice per fruit, which is considerable savings (especially if u purchase organic fruits) It costs about a hundred bucks lesser.


We don't use organic stuff at home yet. Why? we need dad to keep on eating, as he needs to put on weight. At his 56Kg for a man, he is almost literally skins and bones. With the chemo which affects his appetite and the wind in him that comes with the condition, so long as he can put food into his mouth, we'll all exclaim halleluia in different languages- pig organ soup, pig stomach soup, kway chap, mee siam, lontong  blah blah..... to go organic at this point in time is like pouring cups of water into the sea and hoping that the sea level will rise?   Hopefully by some divine intervention, stroke of luck , or modern supplementation and nutrition, his weigh can go up to 70KG. Then we can talk organic. and this is solely my own opinion only.
