5 Best Cold-Pressed Juices in KL

Apparently, the conventional juicing method involves cutting and grounding fruits by fast-spinning blades, and this coarse action terminates many of the vitamins and minerals in our juices. The procedure adds heat and exposes ingredients to air which cut down the percentage of vital nutrients. How cold-press works is that it’s a slow and careful process of hydraulically extracting fruit and vegetable essence, and the cold press juicers use just enough pressure to extract the juice while preserving its vitamins, enzymes, trace minerals and overall nutrients up to five times more than any other juicer. The juice won’t be exposed to oxygen, preventing dangerous bacteria from developing and also this preserves the pulp, therefore making the juice richer in fibre and protein.

It’s an intricate process with thousands of kilograms of pressure applied to extract every single gram of juice from the fruit. You can typically enjoy your cold pressed juice up to 3 days after extraction only, so remember to drink it fast and not leave it in your fridge for too long!
