Breville JE98XL Juice Fountain Plus

One of the key things most overlooked by nutrition is phytonutrients. These go way beyond vitamins and are one of the reasons why you can't live on supplements alone. Each fruit and vegtetable is packed with its own phytonutrient complex and these are essential. Years ago, studies cited evidence that Vitamin A was not as beneficial if it wasn't co-factored with Beta-carotene, a phytocomponent found in carrots. Can't eat your fruits and veggies? Drink them!

Phytochemicals are non-nutritive plant chemicals that contain protective, disease-preventing, compounds. Their role in plants is to protect plants from disease, injuries, insects, drought, excessive heat, ultraviolet rays, and poisons or pollutants in the air or soil. They form part of the plants immune system. Although phytochemicals are not yet classified as nutrients, substances necessary for sustaining life, they have been identified as containing properties for aiding in disease prevention. They have been shown to be beneficial for proper metabolism of certain vitamins, especially the class of anti-oxidants.

The Breville Juice Fountain Plus has a powerful 850-watt motor and 2 speeds to tackle hard and soft fruits and veggies and turn them into juice. It's quick, efficient, and you get to enjoy fresh juice of whatever you wish. I like mixing carrots, celery, pears, and mango. The JE98XL from Breville turns them into a tasty, phytochemical elixir.

While ancestors have told us to eat fruits and veggies, phytonutrients is a relatively recent topic of research. The best known phytonutrients are carotenoids, flavonoids, and isoflavones. Carotenoids include yellow, orange, and red pigment in fruits and vegetables. Dark, green, leafy vegetables are rich in the carotenoid, beta-carotene, but the usual yellow Color is masked by the chloraphyll, the green pigment in the vegetables. Flavonoids are reddish pigments, found in red grape skins and citrus fruits, and isoflavones can be found in peanuts, lentils, soy, and other legumes. Have Breville JE98XL Juice Fountain Plus make phyotmins and drink them.

So while tablets can provide vitamins and minerals, fresh juice contains nutrients for balance and wellness.
