‘Cold pressed’ has become the in thing among the fashionable juice bars. But with good reason. Extracting juice using a technique that does not emit heat means it has been ‘cold pressed’ and that there is no heat that can destroy the nourishing enzymes, antioxidants and vitamin molecules.
One reason cold press juicers are hip at the moment among the nutrient-savvy? A cold pressed juicer does not separate the pulp and the juice and retaining all of the nutritional value. So when it comes to making juices, the Cold Press Juicer becomes the best in category for this purpose.
