Does blending juices and smoothie destroy its nutrients?
Before this information takes a life of its own, we believe it must be addressed to its complete reality. The question does blending destroy nutrients is turning into a dangerous half information when this sword swings both sides. I.e. blending can release 100% nutrients that you otherwise may not get by just chewing, and if you blend excessively you could certainly oxidize all nutrients to make them disappear.
When Doctor Brian Clement, refers to blending destroys nutrients he refers to the timeline of 1-1/2 to 2 minutes which is the time it takes to zero the nutritional value.
Blendtec Blenders Retain the Nutritional Value and Maximize them, while Common Highspeed Blenders only help to Destroy the Nutrition in your Food ingredients
Nearly all blends done in a Blendtec blender finishes within 25 to 45 seconds. Here Blending is done as a science not just as power show. Big power is only one facet of the science, the others are more importantly:
- Jar Design
- Blade Design
- Intelligent Variable Cycle (&)
- Motor Power (HP/ Watt)
The Process of Quick Blending (within 45 seconds)
- A wide bottom jar that lets more ingredients in touch with the blade to convert ingredients faster into a beverage.
- The wide blade with blunt edge where more surface of blade passes through ingredients to crush and pulverize them faster.
- The variable cycle that just doesnt start and low to high, instead creates a high/low pulse letting ingredients keep falling into the bottom from the top to convert.
- The powerful 3.8PHP with 1500 to 1895 watt that assures higher speeds and toughest ingredients blend without a halt or freeze.
