If you’re tired of watery juices that haven’t been able to help your ambitious weight loss programme, it's time you tried a glass of cold-pressed juice. Cold-pressed juices are produced using machines that do not generate any heat unlike regular, high-speed juicers. In a cold press juicer the fruit is minimally processed, so the juice contains more vitamins and fibres than regular juice. 

Once available only for industrial use, today, you can get a cold-press juicer for your kitchen and squeeze the fruits and vegetables of your choice. So, take your pick from juicers that promise good health in one shot.  

Greenline J-AAA

• Since this machine promises to extract more than 90 per cent of the juice from fruits and vegetables, it can easily play Man Friday to those on a detox plan. With its low-speed and silent operation, this juicer promises to extract 25 per cent more juice than its competitors. 

• Price: Rs 15,000

Omega Chrome-Heavy Duty Masticating Juicer 8008

 

• With a weighty two horsepower motor that puts this device in the same league as a commercial juicer, this cold press juicer definitely stands out in the crowd. It is equipped with the GE Ultem auger, a type of plastic that makes it eight times more powerful than other juicers in the market as it rotates at about 80 RPM.

• Price: Rs 64,780

Usha NutriPress Cold Press Juicer

 

• One of India’s leading consumer durable companies, Usha, has expanded its gadget inventory to include the NutriPress juicer that does juicing in the most natural way. It extracts juices at low temperature to retain nutrients instead of high-speed grinding that happens in normal centrifugal juicers.  

• Price: Rs 20,990 onwards

Kent Cold Press Juicer

 

• With low-speed juicing that ensures that the fibres, nutrients and the original taste of the fruits and vegetables are retained, Kent’s cold press juicer is a great pick. It’s easy to assemble and clean. The reverse action motor helps in cleaning pulp blockages. Tempting, isn’t it? 

• Price: Rs 15,000
