jelloo to all.
Am looking to get my first blender so I need some help with that plz if u guys don’t mind. I hear a lot about the vitamix, but my thing with that is would it deoxidize the fruits and vegetables. I head that some blenders will do that

All blenders do that. Mixing fruits and veggies with air... happens. Thing is, with the VM, you get it done faster so, no blending for so long, not so much oxidation. Leaving cut fruit uncovered it will oxidize. It's life.

It's not something you need to worry about. Here is an article by Victoria Boutenko with some research she did.

Please read what I said. Anytime you cut a fruit or veggie it happens. If you bite a fruit or veggie it's going to happen. Once the skin is broken, it happens.

I wouldn't worry so much about some deoxidization.....you are getting sooo many vitamins and minerals when you make all the wonderful raw food soups, smoothies etc. I didn't have a vitamix at first and thought.....a blender is a blender. Then I got a vitamix and wow, I love that thing.....it is REALLY nice, I've never regretted spending the money.
