Fruit and vegetable juicers
The most commonly seen juicers are centrifugal juicers that peruse blades and a sieve followed by masticating juicers that have a single gear and follow a 'chewing like process' to squeeze out the juice and lastly triturating juicers that have twin gears that crush fruit and then press it.
Centrifugal juicers are common, and work by using high speed motors that actually destroy several nutrients and essential enzymes due to heat produced by the speedy action. Moreover, it is noisy and you need a larger amount of fruits and vegetables to get the same quantity of juice that you would get with masticating juicer. The reason that most people make use of centrifugal juicers is that it used to be the only type of juicer available.
Masticating and triturating juicers release deep-seated nutrients and enzymes and break up more of the phytochemical from fruits and vegetables resulting in juices richer in nutrients and minerals. Both operate at a very low speed of about 80-160 RPM, preserving the precious enzymes and nutrients that get as close to its natural form as possible.
