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

12/02/2016

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

6

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?

12/02/2016

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
