Dr Norman Walker, an Englishman who lived in the United States for most of his life, is recognised throughout the world as one of the most authoritative students of life, health and nutrition. In his book, Natural Weight Control, Dr. Walker offers "A Diet Like No Other", based on the body's need for vital, life-giving enzymes found only in nature's pure foods. On enzymes he writes, "Enzymes are not things or substances! They are the life-principle in the atoms and molecules of every living cell. The enzymes in the cells of the human body are exactly like those in vegetation, and the atoms in the human body each have a corresponding affinity for like atoms in vegetation."

An important part of this message is the message regarding enzymes and the fact that the enzymes in fruit and vegetables die at temperatures which exceed 50 degrees celsius. Walker said that any juice extractor which used a high speed blade or centrifuge, created friction heat leading to the destruction of enzymes. Normal speed juicers and blenders destroy large numbers of life giving enzymes in the juice by subjecting them to heat, metal cutting blades and high speed centrifugal rotation. Rotating at a low 80 RPM the OSCAR DA1000 produces no heat and ensures a living juice without any loss of enzymes or nutrients.
Dr Norman Walker was known as the American raw food pioneer and proponent of natural healing who helped to develop the technique of juicing and was one of the first to write about the wonders of raw juice. A marvellous testament to the truth of the idea that you are what you eat, Dr Walker lived to the age of 106 years.

One of his favourite juice recipes was Potassium Punch, consisting of:
3 carrots
2 stalks of celery
4 lettuce leaves
a hand full of spinach or watercress whichever is available
and a small bunch of parsley

In the words of the great man himself; "The organic minerals and salts in this combination of raw potassium 'broth' embrace practically the entire range of those required by the body. Its effect in reducing excessive acidity in the stomach has been truly remarkable. There is probably no food more complete in every respect than this for the human organism."

The Oscar juicer is extremely effective at juicing leafy green vegetables as well as hard root vegetables so we can rest assured that we are getting the most vital nutrients out of our fruit and vegetables and leafy greens. Unlike conventional juicers, the Oscar juicer retains those living enzymes which provide a fresh and vital juice retaining its appearance, flavour and nutrients for many hours when stored in the refrigerator.
