Rob from www.bestjuicers.com demonstrates how to make a super healthy green juice with the green star juicer. 1 cucumber 1 green or red apple (green is less sweet more tart) 1-2 carrots 3 stalks of celery 1 head of romaine lettuce 1 2 large dino or regular kale leaves 1/4 to 1/2 ripe Hawaiian papaya (1/2 results in a sweeter juice) 1 handful of cilantro or parsley (or both for deeper green juice) 1 handful of fennel (stalk can be used too) 1 green or red apple (green is less sweet more tart) Optional small slice of garlic and/or ginger Optional Superfood like Vitamineral Green





Apple seeds & apricot seeds contain Vitamin B-17, which was and still is used in certain countries, to cure cancer. Actually, the correct name for the chemical structure is amygdalin, which is a nitriloside. Yes, amygdalin does contain cyanide, but, because of how the chemical structure is, it will not be absorbed by your body and will only be used to kill cancer cells if it comes into contact with them. BTW, Vitamin B-12 contains a form of cyanide (cyanocobalamin).
Downing straight cyanide WILL kill you, but not in the form of amygdalin. Did you also know that there are healthy forms of E. Coli which are essential when it comes to absorbing certain vitamins? That’s right. Most forms of E. Coli are actually NOT deadly. Anyway, back to the cyanide issue. Don’t worry about it because, like I said, with the way nature made it, it can only be beneficial to your health. Nitriloside is hydrolyzed to free hydrogen cyanide, benzaldehyde or acetone and sugar.
This occurs largely through the enzyme Beta-glucosidase produced by intestinal bacteria and the body. The HCN that is released [hydrocyanide] is then detoxified by the rhodanese enzyme to a relatively non-toxic molecule called thiocyanate.
In simplified terms, when vitamin B-17 enters the body, it is hydrolyzed only to a very slight degree by body or somatic cells. This is obvious because Vitamin B-17 has been shown to be non-toxic. But even if some of the B-17 is hydrolyzed by body or somatic cells, the very high concentration of the enzyme rhodanese in these cells converts the HCN immediately to relatively non-toxic thiocyanate. So, perhaps the biochemistry will help explain this. Eat your healthy apple and apricot seeds!
not to sound like an idiot but all i want is a good tasting juice. don’t care about vitamins , ill just stick to my orange juice.
A vita mix is not a juicer Its a blender You can make great smoothies and shakes with a vitamix but having a juicr actually squeezes the greens and extracts alot of juice from it.
Toxicity
Beta-glucosidase, one of the enzymes that catalyzes the release of the cyanide from amygdalin, is present in human small intestine and in a variety of common foods. This leads to an unpredictable and potentially lethal toxicity when amygdalin or Laetrile is taken orally.[10][11][12]
think i will stick with my jack lalane
Cool trick with the foam!
Is the foam bad to eat btw?
hell yea. these juicers are just amazing inventions.. no other way would a person waste the time to chop veggies.. maybe crush them with a stick in a bucket lol.. people used to do it … but this is the practical future right here….. before i got a nice juicer for free a week ago.. i nevern touched carrots.. now i can just juice 3 of them.. as well as spinach and many other heavy fibers i wouldnt normally want to consume with my already rich oat diet
really enjoyable video man u should do more ur good at this… never would have really thought that about carrots… i do put a large bundle of spinach in as well as broccoli and boch choi.. the juice tastes like utter shit though.. but it makes u feel good .. it basically tastes like eating a salad raw no dressing which i never ever did as a kid haha. i put a little salt in my juice but u dont need much
Yes, you are an idiot
you can make almost any juice better by adding a bunch of apples, but yea, you’ll be putting a bunch of sugar into it with the apples. but still, it tastes so much better.
what song is that in the background ?

I had a single auger samson which was great but I had to get the omega single auger vert. I love this juicer so much ! check it out on youtube. The green star is amazing but a lot of work to clean and to have to push the fruits, veggies, etc. in the machine.
I wouldn’t trade my Omega in for anything. This contraption looks more space-age than anything. And, what’s with the “centrifugal” commentary? Don’t forget, too, that by juicing, a tremendous amount of natural fiber is lost. Unless you’re trying to cleanse, better to eat the veggies. And don’t buy into the “don’t eat carrots because they have sugar” nonsense.
I have this same juicer ( Green Life ). I found it on Craigslist for $150.00. It is a great juicer. I love carrots, pineapple, pears, grannysmith apples, ginger and spinach….Yumm!!!
I think it would be better to blend the papaya into the juice, but that’s just me…
u can eat the pulp after juicing and u wont loose any fiber, also carrots need to be juiced in order to get all the beta carotene because it needs to be seperated from the fiber , which u can eat the pulp fiber after wards
never mind last comment i misread ur comment
lol ELP. I never really found the remnants of the juicing to be appealing for eating
*shrug*
We juice primarily for cleansing and quick nutrient bursts (body absorbs quickly) and for our baby girl (bleh to people who give their kids soda)
