Vacuum Blending in general
Vacuum blenders have been developed for people who are looking to maximize
nutrition and reduce spoilage.
A characteristic of a normal household blender is that the high speed blades
immediately whisk lots of air into whatever ingredients you are blending.
The process of blending smashes ingredients into tiny particles, giving the biggest
possible surface area of contact between your food and oxygen.
Practically every molecule of the ingredients in a traditional blender is swimming in
an oxygen rich bath, and your blended food immediately starts to lose its nutritional
value and flavours as a result.
This is why we always recommend that a fresh smoothie is best consumed
immediately.
The Astro Vacuum Blender is a fantastic solution to this problem.
The first thing you will notice about a smoothie made in a vacuum blender will be
the colour.
Think about how quickly the brown discoloration occurs when you peel a carrot for
example. This is exactly what happens when you blend and these millions of parts of
surface area are exposed to the air. The colour of the blended ingredients will start to
darken and deteriorate with exposure to oxygen.
With the Astro Vacuum Blender, with the touch of a button, the air is removed from
the blending jug, reducing the exposure to oxygen and creating a vibrant coloured
smoothie.
Secondly, the air in a normal blender will create lots of bubbles or froth. When using
the Astro Vacuum Blender, this froth is avoided and results in a more full-bodied
smoothie which tastes rich and fresh.
Use the vacuum function with the vacuum preservation container to remove air
from smoothies, dips, sauces, baby food and more to prolong freshness.

Ginger
Ginger is a powerhouse when it comes to
weight loss – it increases metabolism, stimulates
circulation and excretion of toxins from the body.
Ginger helps in expanding the blood vessels
which increases your body heat, making your
body burn more fat quickly.
As an added bonus ginger helps lower cholesterol
by significantly reducing serum and hepatic
cholesterol levels! Pears have a slight laxative
affect on the body, meaning they will aid in
digestion and help to flush out the body.
Kale
Kale is packed full of super nutrients and
enzymes meaning it gives your body an
incredible nutrient kick. A lot of the time our
body registers a lack of nutrients as hunger
and thus we feel hungry when really it is our
body crying out for nutrition. Help your body to
suppress “cravings” with this nutrient-packed
juice!
