Juicing for a Healthy You and Planet
Save on landfill
Remember
In all cases of ill health:
ALWAYS seek a professional opinion
NEVER self diagnose and/or self medicate
CONTINUE taking prescribed medications. Discuss any changes you would like to make to your prescribed medication regime with your doctor/healthcare practitioner first.

Factors that impact our food
Transportation
Pesticides and Toxicity
Soil degradation
GMO

Transportation
Today we have a greater variety and access to a wide range of foods than ever before
Prior we could only access in season food
In today’s global society food we now have access to fresh food from all over the world
The price is a greater carbon foot print
Preservatives – See Mc Donald Museum.
Pesticides on in our food
Plants coated with water
resistant herbicides and
pesticides
Residue is absorbed by the
plant
12/02/2016

Quick Facts – according to CHOICE Scientifically, no ‘convincing evidence’ pesticide residues bad for your health
According to Experts: the risk of cancer (disease) from individual pesticides is very low
Research isn’t static
12/02/2016
7
Quick Facts – CHOICE Australia:
300 pesticides registered for fruit n’ veg crops.
Testing varies from state to state
no independent testing on 95% of imported
fruit and vegetables coming into Australia for pesticide residues.
Umbilical Cord Blood Studies:
232 Chemicals found
“Babies organ systems
aren't mature and their
detox methods are not
in place, so cord blood
gives us a good picture
of exposure during this
most vulnerable time
of life."
12/02/2016
8
Prior Study: Of the 287 chemicals EWG detected in umbilical cord blood:
• 180 cause cancer in humans or animals
• 217 toxic to brain and nervous system
• 208 = birth defects or abnormal development
in animal tests
Experts believe rising rates of birth defects,
asthma, neuro-developmental disorders and
other serious diseases in U.S. children are a
result of early chemical exposures.
What does it mean to me?

FACT: Since World War II
“approx 80,000 new commercial synthetic chemicals have been released into the environment,
with approximately 1500 new chemicals released annually.
Most of these have not been adequately tested for their impacts on human health or their particular impacts on children and the developing foetus.”
Dr Mariann Lloyd-Smith, Senior Advisor to the Australian National Toxics Network
Bodies are not made to process chemicals
Food, and so our body, contains chemicals which are not natural and so possible for our body to process
MCS - 2010
Chemical pneumonitis - inflammation of the lungs or
difficulty breathing due to inhaling chemical fumes or
breathing in and choking on certain chemicals.

Difference – juice and smoothie
Juice
No fibre
Up to 70% nutrition per glass
Has soluble fibre only
Fast energy release
Higher sugar and more quickly absorbed
Smoothie
Whole food
Insoluble & soluble fibre
Slow energy release
Combines fruit and veg often
Highly controversial among purists
Why Juice ???
Drink
Indulgence
Health/nutrition strategy
Therapeutic tool
I argue, necessary daily
