The label 'organic' is a nebulous one, especially in Australia. There is no singular label which would define 'organic' vegetables, and it has been utilised as a marketing tool for products that have no business being labelled as such.

However, to us, and to the rest of the health food industry, this means a locally grown, locally sourced vegetable, produced in a manner that avoids use of chemicals, unnatural fertilisers, or pesticides. It means a vegetable that has been treated properly, and as a result of this natural growth, is healthier and more nourishing.

This is why, at Karmic Juices, we have recently found ourselves an excellent source for organic vegetables. We are now proudly juicing up locally sourced organic vegetables for our pressed juice cleanses, to better serve our health-conscious Melbourne clients.

One of the reasons that we decided to make this switch? At the end of the day, the juices that we make with these organic vegetables tasted better. The reality of their different makeup was self-evident in their taste and texture: it was a superior product, and it made better juice. In our pursuit of a tastier juice, we knew we had to get them in to our repertoire.

The health benefits of this method of growing your vegetables are in dispute. What isn't in dispute, however, are the benefits of avoiding transport costs and factory farming methods of the larger farms. We support small business owners with this practice, who provide us with a quality product, the fruit of their own labours. This, to us, made our pressed juice cleanses more enjoyable.

Stop by and taste the difference.

The impacts, and the health benefits, of drinking fresh juices are numerous. An improvement in energy and vitality, decreasing rates of heart and liver disease, and an aid to weight loss are just some of them. However, an underrated element of pressed juice cleanses is the notable impact upon the look and health of your skin.

If you suffer from acne, facial or otherwise, there is evidence that a tomato-based juice can help your skin’s ability to heal, and prevent future breakouts. The addition of ginger can help to reduce inflammation in your skin’s blood vessels, leading to a more even and clear complexion.

If you’re a dry skin sufferer, especially during the winter months when indoor heating is in use, a carrot, beetroot, and celery juice can provide relief. Mixed with some natural omega-3 supplements, many chronic sufferers have found the addition of juice eases their condition considerably.

As for rosacea, an ailment that is typically quite resilient to many topical creams, juicing can provide some relief as well. A beetroot, ginger, and celery mix can aid in reducing inflammation and discomfort. Even those who suffer from brittle nails have found some respite in a pressed juice cleanse, as they rehabilitate their bodies from the inside out with the power of natural fruit and vegetable enzymes.

This is not to suggest that these recipes are a cure-all to these ailments. Proper protocol should be followed from your dermatologist. But many long-term sufferers have taken advantage of the power of pressed juice cleanses, and harnessed them for their benefit. It could work for you!

More and more Australians are discovering the reviving and revitalizing power behind drinking natural juices. In a country where the majority of people fall far short of their daily recommended intake of fruits and vegetables, the benefits of juicing are noticed immediately. More energy, a stronger metabolism, and better skin are just a few of the health improvements people bring back to us. However, a pressed juices fast does even more than that, under the hood.

If you eat the average of three daily meals, and live an average lifespan for an Australian, you will digest roughly 87 000 meals in your lifetime. That is a lot of work for any machine to handle, and while we are not machines, we must make some time to ensure that our flesh-and-blood equivalent is in good nick. That is one of the key benefits of a juice fast: it serves to rebalance our GI tract by offering it a breather from work.

If your large intestine isn't busy processing current meals, it can turn its efforts inwards, and reduce the amount of prevailing compounds residing within itself. It can reproduce any shortages in necessary bacteria and enzymes which are put to use in breaking down food stuffs, essentially serving to ‘reset' our body back to its healthiest form.

There are many health benefits to a pressed juices fast, to be certain. This is only one entrant on a long list of body maintenance which such a commitment can result in, but at Karmic, we feel that strong health in your digestive process is especially worthy of our attention. Give us a call, and improve your health.

At Karmic, we take great pride in the ingredients that go into our cold pressed juice cleanses. Each bottle is the result of much tasting and testing that enables us to come up with raw produce combinations that are not only great for us, but also delicious. What might not be so evident as our love of all things nutritious and delicious, is our dedication to the craft of creating cold pressed juice for Melbourne health enthusiasts.

When people think of small batch, an image of an old Scotsman stirring a bathtub full of whiskey may come to mind, but it’s a production style that has enjoyed a renaissance amongst more discerning businesses and organisations of late. People are pushing back against the mass production that characterised previous decades and there is a growing movement towards quality over quantity, craft over mass consumerism. The benefits of small batch production are many and varied, but we will take you through a few that Karmic hold dear.

Natural ingredients

In order to save money and time, mass producers of juice tend to include an array of sugars, agents and other additives in their production process. At Karmic, all our ingredients are natural, raw and entirely healthy, ensuring our low fructose cold pressed juice cleanses are better for both you and the environment.

Attention to detail

Mass production doesn’t lend itself to care and attention. Many companies have workers rather than creators and quality control is seen as a regulatory obligation rather than a duty to craft and customer. In a small batch environment, great care is lavished at every stage of the production process and the small team at Karmic Cold Pressed Juice in Melbourne are heavily invested and attached to our end product.

Philosophy

Our commitment to small batch production is part of the larger Karmic ethos. We believe that our passion for healthy living and our dedication to quality is evident in each bottle of every pressed juice cleanse we deliver. Just as a tailored suit fits and feels better to wear, a crafted juice tastes and feels better to drink.
