Why Buy a Health Stream Juice Press?
The Health Stream Juice Press, in Combination with a Juicer, Does the Job More Thoroughly and Produces a Better Quality Juice than from a Juicer Alone
Used in combination with a juicer that gives a well broken up pulp (e.g. a masticating juicer like the Champion), the Health Stream Juice Press ensures that not only more vegetable and fruit juice is extracted but an even higher concentration of nutrient and mineral content is extracted.
First, a high-powered cutter used by a masticating juicer like the Champion, reduces fruit or vegetables to a very fine pulp. This pulp is then placed in a strong, nylon twill juice cloth inside a stainless steel pan. A solid, one-piece beechwood pressing block is placed on top. The pan and its contents are placed on the pressing platform inside the press. The platform is raised against the top casing of the press and a pressure of up to 4 tonnes squeezes practically all of the juice out of the pulp, flushing out a higher concentration of nutrients under this high pressure. This juice is finely strained through the juice cloth giving a clearer juice than when using a juicer alone. The juice runs out through a spout on the stainless steel pan. (The spout is blocked with a rubber bung to prevent juice running out until you are ready to collect it.) The pulp of even hard root vegetables is reduced to something resembling a piece of damp cardboard in a few minutes.
This method of pulping and then hydraulic pressing is often used commercially, on a larger scale, and is generally accepted as the only way to successfully and efficiently extract all the plant juices and nutrients.
It is important to note that, according to tests by an independent consultant chemist from Washington, Utah - Leroy J Bailey - the concentration of nutrient and mineral content in the extracted juice rises as more juice is extracted. It seems that the last ten percent of juice comes out with a far higher content than the first ten percent. Also, efficient pulping and pressing results in a higher percentage of nutrients being extracted, even if the quantity of juice extracted remains the same.
The Gerson Therapy for cancer and other serious illnesses insists on the highest quality juice as an integral part of the therapy. The use of the Health Stream Press, in combination with the Champion Juicer, has been recommended by Charlotte Gerson, daughter of the famous pioneer Dr. Max Gerson, as long ago as April 1987. Wholistic Research Company continues to work closely with Gerson patients and the UK Gerson Support Group.
A Champion Juicer and a Health Stream Press together cost less than a quarter of the expense of importing a Norwalk Juicer (a juicer and press combined in one large machine) into the UK.
Leroy J Bailey's test results show the amount of calcium (for example) that a hydraulic press juicer can extract from 5 pounds of carrots, compared to juicers on their own, demonstrating the value of using both a juicer and a juice press:
