Fresh Juice - how long before nutrition starts to go away?

[peachy_pie]

I just got a juicer (HOORAH) but because of the cleaning and stuff involved, I was wondering whether it would be possible to juice a whole bunch for the week and leave it in a sealed bottle in the fridge? is this bad? I usually just do carrot apple and orange juice.

Also, anyone have any ideas for leftover pulp? It seems such a waste!

you can use pulps in things like carrot cake or other kinds of raw cakes. i think juice will go bad/lose nutrients pretty fast though. i personally don't juice but i know that even smoothies go bad in a day for me.

Hi there!

I have an inexpensive juicer and I pretty much drink it right away.

A friend of mine juices ahead about 3 days or so, I can not remember. Anyways, what she does is she has purchased very small mason jars and a vac sealer and puts juice in them and then seals it.

Nutrient retention will depend on what type of juicer you use. If you use a high-quality juicer which isn't centrifugal, such as a Norwalk or Green Star, the juice will last better. You can add powdered C, such as Pure Radiance, to prevent oxidation.
