A little about PRIME Juicers

My name is Rich Donahue and I’m an avid juicer. I started PRIME Juicers because I love juicing fruits and vegetables. I’ve studied Natural Health, Yoga, Meditation, Reiki, Healer’s Touch Massage and Juicing! This website and blog are dedicated to people who want to improve their health, lose weight and fast or cleanse their body by juicing fresh fruits and vegetables.

Why Juicing? The recommended daily servings of fruits and vegetables is somewhere between the number of 5 and 9 servings (depending on who you ask). I find it difficult to manage to eat only 5 servings per day and that’s one reason I juice. Studies show, only 20 percent of Americans eat five or more daily servings of fruits and vegetables, and a mere 5 percent consume seven servings. When I juice I consistently get between 5 and 9 servings per day. My blog at PRIME Juicers is designed to help you find the best juicer for your needs and get the same benefit out of juicing so you may live a longer, happier and healthier life. So juice on!

More Reasons To Juice: Antioxidants, Enzymes, Vitamins and Minerals

Do you need more reasons to start juicing? At PRIME Juicers we believe it’s good for your body. FRESH fruit and vegetable juice will give your body the antioxidants, enzymes, vitamins and minerals it needs to heal, be stronger and feel better. FRESH juice contains more available nutrients and enzymes than chewed raw food. You can’t get the same benefits from cooked or steamed vegetables, not to mention the canned or frozen products. It’s just not the same. In my opinion, there’s no-thing better for your body than FRESH fruit and vegetable juice.

Myths and Facts Of Juicing

“Juicing detoxes are unnecessary and we have natural detoxifying systems: the liver, kidneys and GI tract are great filters that naturally remove toxins from the body. We don’t need to throw a whole lot of juice in there to do the job for us.” – That said, our bodies weren’t designed to eat fast food, processed food, GMO’s, pesticides and chemicals. Our bodies are amazing and the creator gave us everything we need, but we have to protect it, which I’m sure you’ll agree with. A healthy 24hour to 3 day juicing cleanse a few times a year is very beneficial for our bodies to get rid of built up toxins and restore our bodily systems. I’m a juicing enthusiast and believe strongly in the power of fresh fruit and vegetable juice. All you have to do is try it and you’ll see  an improvement in your health.

“Juicing is bad. Juicers remove the fiber from fruits and vegetable and you’re body needs fiber. Juicers concentrate the sugar too and that much sugar is bad for you.” – You get fiber through many other foods. You can also add back in some of the pulp to your juice if you want. I’m not saying, just juice. I’m saying juice in moderation to supplement your diet with healthy fruits and vegetables.

It’s true, juicing does concentrate the fruit sugar, but as I said, do it in moderation. If you juice green vegetables you won’t have to be concerned about the sugar. I juice more vegetables than I do fruit. When juicing fruit it’s a good idea to dilute the juice with purified water. According to the Department of Agriculture, 90 percent of the antioxidant action in fruit is in the juice, not the fiber. Juicing is very good for your body.
