We don't cold-press at JUS by Julie. Instead, we blend our JUS with very powerful and highly sensitive machinery to ensure that you're getting the best nutritional benefits and a great consistency. Cold pressing juice removes all of the fiber in the fruits and vegetables. Our blended juice incorporates the whole fruit and vegetable, including the skin and fiber, where many important nutrients are found. The texture is thicker, and almost like a smoothie.
You're getting the entire fruit and vegetable when enjoying our blended JUS. Our special blending process breaks up the fiber, which gives a smoother consistency than a traditional smoothie and makes the produce easier to digest.
Fruits and vegetables contain natural sugar, which is not bad for you, but if there's no fiber to create a steady release of sugar (aka energy) from your juice, you're bound to get a big sugar spike, followed by a crash that makes you feel sluggish.
All of that fiber in the fruits & vegetables (which you remove when cold-pressing) helps push waste through your digestive tract, allowing you to eliminate them from your body. The fiber also feeds the good bacteria in your digestive system.
Blended juices are digested more slowly than cold pressed juices because you're getting the entire produce in the drink, including all of the important fiber. Fiber keeps you feeling full for a longer period of time. This is helpful for anyone doing a juice cleanse.
Our blended JUS has more of the pulp of the fruits and vegetables, which holds lots of nutrients and vitamins.
Our blending process allows us to add in extra-nutritious ingredients like avocado, chia seeds, almond butter, and maca powder that pump up the protein and healthy fats in our smoothies.
