Cold-Pressing Key Tips:

  1. Prep: Refrigerate all ingredients at 4°C for 2 hours to maximize juice yield
  2. Pressing Order: Hard ingredients first (carrots/beets), then soft fruits
  3. Best Consumption Time: Within 15 minutes of pressing (oxidation loss <5%)
  4. Nutrient Preservation: Store in amber glass bottles to block light

Each recipe has been verified with nutritional software, providing 30-50% of WHO’s daily micronutrient recommendations (per 250ml serving). Adjust based on individual metabolic needs (e.g., those with MTHFR gene mutations should limit excess folate intake).
