ABOUT JUICING & BLENDING
Below we have tried to address many issues about this product that you might find
yourself having. If you need any further information, please do not hesitate to
contact us using the contact information on the warranty page.
What are the benefits of eating healthy?
Research has proven that eating a diet rich in fresh fruits and vegetables can
increase your health by decreasing your chances of heart disease, high blood
pressure, and even some types of cancer. The Aroma Nurti-Center™can make
eating healthy fun and tasty.
What ingredients will help my family and I achieve nutritional wellness?
Fruits and vegetables with a peel or skin are often good choices. Apple skin and
grape seeds provide many nutrients. Using this product, these ingredients can be
chopped and blended so finely into a smoothie that you will not even know they are
there but will enjoy the nutritional benefits.Also, dark green leafy vegetables contain
fiber forms, like alginates that aid in digestion and act as powerful tools in
detoxifying chemical and metal toxins in the body while providing healthy nutrients.
What are the benefits of blending juices and smoothies at home?
The benefits are many. With the Aroma Nutri-Center™, only you decide what
ingredients go into your beverage. Not only do your creations end up tasting better
but they are generally much more nutritional than store-bought beverages.
Premade beverages often contain large amounts of refined sugar and less vitamins
and minerals than in fresh juices and smoothies.
How do I create healthy beverages and still spend time with my family?
This product makes it easy! The powerful motor and easy-to-clean container make
creating healthy breakfast shakes, smoothies and much more fast and easy. In the
amount of time it takes you to order at a fast-food drive-thru, you could already have
made a healthy meal for yourself and family. You can even get your family involved.
Ask your family members for ingredient suggestions or let them make their own
blended creations.
