NATURALLY HEALTHY www.gourmetnews.com n SEPTEMBER 2014 n GOURMET NEWS N H 3 4 Can Your Juicer Chew?: Greenstar Elite Mirrors Our Bodies' Design Our mouths are the world's best juicers. We use our front teeth for cutting large pieces, canines for tearing, molars for grinding and our tongue for pressing. When it comes to juicing equipment, a machine that most closely mimics our natural process is key to extracting maximum nutrition. Designed using our bodies' natural mastication abili- ties as a model, the Tribest Greenstar Elite is the only juicer on the market that offers a complete mastication system to mirror what our bodies do naturally, but faster and with- out all the effort. The Jumbo Twin-Gear Technology, with its 3-stage juicing system, cuts open the cell membranes of the produce and effectively squeezes out every drop of precious nutrients from your fruits and veg- etables. From hard roots (carrots, ginger) to fibrous stalks (celery, rhubarb) to even the toughest leafy greens (kale, wheat grass), this superior juicer extracts and protects even the most delicate of the vital nutrients. Backed by a 12-year manufacturer's war- ranty, the Greenstar Elite superior juicer fea- tures: 24 "teeth," including patented pocket re- cesses that act like our incisors to process harder vegetables more efficiently and easily while keeping enzymes intact; 110 RPM (similar to our chewing speed of 100-120 times per minute) to prevent air bubbles (ox- idation) that degrade the nutritional value of the juice; an exclusive heavy- duty twin gear impeller press system that operates quietly at low speeds with minimal fric- tion and heat, preserving even the most delicate nutrients; HD Jumbo Twin-Gear Juicing Technology that uses a 3-stage process (crushing, mixing, and pressing) to produce higher juice yield and enhance the nutritional value of every drop; exclusive bioceramic and magnetic technology to help delay oxidation and stabilize the liquid, making the nutrients in the juice last up to 72 hours in the refrig- erator compared to 15 minutes with a cen- trifugal juicer; and included food mill accessories for preparing baby foods, sorbets and nut butters. In addition, the Greenstar Juicer features special cutting points on each of the gears, allowing it to extract juice more efficiently and to handle fibrous vegetables like celery without getting tan- gled or clogged. It also features an outlet adjusting knob, which allows the user to easily adjust the amount of pressure that is exerted inside the juicing chamber to effectively handle a wider variety of produce without jamming or clog- ging. On top of its unique functionality, the Greenstar Elite is also easy to clean and as- semble, featuring an automatic pulp ejection for continuous juicing and easier clean-up.
