Why Organic?

Why Organic?

Why our juice cleanses are organic

Why you should only drink "organic" cold pressed juices

CERTIFIED ORGANIC means that products are free of synthetic additives like pesticides, chemical fertilizers, and dyes, and must not be processed using industrial solvents, irradiation, or genetic engineering, according to the USDA.

Organic = 50% more vitamins & minerals

There is a bit of controversy about whether or not organic products are actually "healthier" for you despite many studies showing that organic produce contains on average 50% more vitamins, minerals, enzymes and other micro-nutrients than conventionally farmed produce. Regardless, one fact that nobody seems to dispute is that choosing organic products lowers your exposure to highly toxic pesticides and chemicals, which have been linked to various types of disease and illness. Organic products are often more expensive than conventional ones because organic farming is much more labor intensive. Furthermore, it is expensive for farmers to maintain their organic certification through the USDA.

Detoxification

Fresh cold pressed juices can help ease the strain of detoxification on your body. They're chock full of nutrients that are geared towards fighting toxins and boosting immunity and health. Cold pressed juice is so potent and instantaneous because it lacks the fibrous pulp of the whole fruits and vegetables. Since the body doesn't have to break the fiber down in the digestive system before being able to be used, cold pressed juice is like a lightning bolt to the system. The nutrients immediately enter the body and start going to work. So if you are choosing to invest in a cold pressed juice or juice cleanse, why would you choose one that basically presses the most concentrated form of harmful pesticides and chemicals into your body? Choosing organic may be more expensive. But in the long run, with a bit of a heftier investment now, you are choosing to save later, choosing your health over a lower price.
