Carrot Juicing w/ Norwalk Juicer - a documentary ~

[lissee212]

I couldn't hear his reply, the woman filming said, How long do you think you could live only on juice, and then he replied, Dr. Walker...........  Does anyone know what he said?

[Magdalena1997]

@lissee212 I'll listen carefully and let you know. or I can ask the producers by phone.

[Magdalena1997]

@lissee212 hOW LONG could someone live on this carrot juice??

A: Dr. walker couldn't eat solid food, so he only ingested juice. Solid food he found would make him sick. He lived on this juice for years. Many years.

[mremilyem]

why are you peeling before juicing???

[enternetglobal]

@mremilyem Well he believes there is something harmful in the skin. It has something to do with an enzyme or toxin which makes a plant resistant to pests. He thinks that if you consume a lot of that substance then it can be detrimental to the digestive system.

[GaryPeterson67]

Where can someone get the juicer bags he uses? They look sturdier than the cheap ones I bought from Walker that burst at the bottom.

[enternetglobal]

@GaryPeterson67 I'm not sure. But you could call the owner of this fine machine at Grateful Bread bakery in Miami FL.

[BrokenRRT]

@GaryPeterson67 We bought some at goodnature dotcom

[galegakale]

it takes too much time!

[guitarplayersfriend]

What an arrogant jerk... That baby boomer generation and the generation before the BB's are some of the weirdest freaks on the planet. They are such high archaical people they completely miss the point of making a video like this... it's to educate you DORK. SHARE what you know!! TALK!

[enternetglobal]

@guitarplayersfriend Yes vierwers are always looking for more talk. Yes indeed. Sorry we will have to make another juicing video someday.

- Louis

[guitarplayersfriend]

Allot of WASTED ENERGY

(HINT: try laying out several carrots side by side and cut multiple tips at once and then peel them while their in your hand or don't peel them at all and wash all of them in the large bowl with lots of water).

I loved when the girl was asking him how Mr. Walker discovered that drinking juice was so beneficial and he said "he analyzed the juice" and just keeps of grinding carrots, ignoring the girl as she was talking...

[agrippaorbs]

That guy looked like he was going to lose it any second.

[Internal Monologue]: I can't believe I paid $3000 for this thing. I even had to pay for more bags! My ceiling.... the horror ....the horror.....

[ckellyllc]

Cool

[uman71]

THIS VIDEO SUCKS, THIS SHOWS YOU HOW NOT TO JUICE!!!

[theman77777777232]

this is about the worst video ive ever seen :(

[Annazayla]

What is the difference between this Norwalk juicer and a regular juicer?

[evanlongaccount]

@Annazayla This type of juicer chews up the food into a bag and then a press smashes the juice out. It's also about $800 to $1000 used, $2000 or so new. A centrifugal style juicer ($50-$200) has a spinning blade which grinds and sorts out the juice and pulp all in one shot. It is claimed by many that Norwalks don't oxidize the juice like a centrifugal but unless the juicing is done in a vacuum or an otherwise oxygen-free environment, the juice will certainly oxidize on its way into the jar.

[evanlongaccount]

@Annazayla Also, it's said that the Norwalk's hydraulic press extracts more juice, which is true, but if you line a centrifugal juicer's pulp container with cheesecloth, you can press it yourself, not very difficult, and it's not that much extra juice anyway. Champion juicers are a third type.

[NJRick2AZ]

Really?? We have to sit here and watch this guy peel all the carrots?? And why would you peel them instead of just washing them off?? And I have seen this brand of carrot before, and they are NOT organic.....so what is the point of trying to show us how to be healthy by juicing, and then use non-organic carrots?? ha ha.....how absurdly unprofessional is this?!

[Annazayla]

@NJRick2AZ Ok...why don't you make a video then.....ever thought about that? It's the ones who complain the most who do less.

[NJRick2AZ]

@Annazayla Why??? Because the Norwalk juicer comes with very easy to understand instructions. And if you follow them, you will be able to juice the RIGHT way. Who is this guy??....your boyfriend that you feel compelled to defend?? lol

[alejandromed22]

too complicated, no need to peel the carrots

[SpaceWalkTraveller]

Wow, that was as exciting as watching a can of worms.

[astrologers]

@SpaceWalkTraveller Thanks walker.

[nonfoods1]

wow,im in shock 7 carrots and a pot full o juice! walker was the best!

[444dorsey444]

Maybe the juice will improve the old dudes social and communication skills. Lets hope!!!!

[astrologers]

@444dorsey444 well he doesnt talk as much as he used to.

[IRON5]

If I gotta put my vegetables in a mini store clerk apron. Smash em down for juice to come out. Then I stick with Jack man juicer.

[dizyootum]

u did a whole bunch of useless shit y did u peel n take the tops off if ur juicing them

[CaledoniaJeanne]

If the veggies are organic, why peel them? You lose important nutrients/fiber.

I'll stick with the Hurom juicer.

[goocherrific]

@CaledoniaJeanne you are right in a way, They last longer if they are topped tailed and peeled:-)

[NaaBegNoFriend]

what is going on here in jamaica we add rum, nutmeg and sweetmilk woooweee

[belbel77]

@NaaBegNoFriend

can you make a video on how to? what kind of sweet milk? this sounds really good!!

[NaaBegNoFriend]

1200 4 a juicer.....ummm....no!

[romeodawg]

This is a disaster... LOL. How in the world would it make sense to have a juicer that takes this much work and space and destroys your kitchen? Plus it's high speed so it must introduce the oxidizing problem. For $2,500? Disaster.

[philotaaveti]

a little carrot goes a long way very sweet so only one per juice made

one juice that is a aquired taste is cabage but i do recomend cabage for health

another tip dont mix fruit with veg!

[raysofgreys]

I bought a used Norwalk (270) today, and after trying it out and making a mess, I'd like to know how you prevent all the throwback? I literally had carrots all over my counters, cupboards, ceiling and myself... I finally got the hang of it, but still experienced some on and off messes flying all over the place. Also, are your bags that orange because of their age, or did you purchase them in that color? Thanks!

[kciRsnurB]

The bags become that color from getting 'dyed' by the carrot juice.

[chelojelo]

@raysofgreys where did u find a Norwalk for that price???

[raysofgreys]

@chelojelo I got the juicer locally on Craigslist for $1250. Not 270, that's the model number! The newest model is 275, but the only changes are the new colors and rounded edges. After a little practice, I am no longer experiencing a messy ceiling - lol! :) We love our Norwalk, and literally use it every day! Juice five pounds of carrots (with apple, beets and celery) every day! Yum... It's definitely an energy boost!

[nEWwORLDhOARDER]

Seems a ridiculous waste of man hours to peal carrots before juicing.

[kciRsnurB]

Apparently you haven't tasted the difference between peeled carrots and unpeeled carrots with the Norwalk Juicer, nor read Dr. Norman Walker's books as to the reason for peeling root vegetables prior to juicing.

[nEWwORLDhOARDER]

@kciRsnurB Oops! *peel* What's the reason?

[adelelles]

Gosh, I hate to see that great organic carrot juice being poured into a chemical-laden plastic bottle! Yeep!

[kosai19]

It's also worth mentioning you can get an auger style juicer ($200+) just to "shred" the food exactly as the Norwalk does and buy a separate hydrolic press identical to the Norwalk for $400. Both will be less than 1/3 the price of the machine and have the same function. There are other ways to get similar or identical quality juice for 1/3 the cost or less.

[jaredspiegel]

it's pretty annoying that you say this on *every* norwalk video on youtube.

[kosai19]

Norwalk is the "best" but the Omgea VERT is pretty close to the quality of juice and is much cheaper.

$2500 for the Norwalk 75th anniversary edition versus $400 for the Omega VERT.

It's worth researching. The main disadvantage is that you have to cut everything because of the small insertion hole of the machine. For the drastic difference in price it's worth it.

When you compare the quality of the juice it's very similar.

[mambavtt]

Lets not promote false info Norman Walker lived to be 99 not bad but please don't exaggerate the facts it causes bad results for a community trying to get people good information.

[BrokenRT]

Thanks for the time making this video and showing the Norwalk juicer in action. The guy making the juice is sort of ignorant and needs to wear some gloves if others are going to be consuming it.

[ShaneyElderberry]

And I'm sure your parents wore gloves every time they prepared food?

[BrokenRT]

Let me explain my comment. "if others are consuming it" as in the public. Public as in customers drinking the juice being bottled in this video. The Pizza oven, 40 cu.ft. commercial refrigerator, store front, apron, deep stainless sink and many more things make a setting as if the juicing is for customers. I also wouldnt peel 25 pounds of carrots after Mr walker and DR Gerson recommend the skin on them for all the nutrients hence the press style of juicing to save all the micronutrients.

[ShaneyElderberry]

Not even the most prestigious chefs around the world will be using gloves. Constantly washing the hands (it's the friction, not the soap that cleans your hands), can do a lot in comparison to using gloves, which I bet most places do not change frequently no matter the "products" or contamination. Simply washing gloves off with water isn't the same as washing them and creating friction between them. That's why I don't care if chefs wear gloves, since most wash their hands frequently.

[GHarrisonFan]

@BrokenRT Yeah, but carrots taste so much better when peeled. That's why he's doing it.

[inacaseoffiremusic]

@BrokenRT Please note that conventional carrots store most of your pesticides and washing/cleaning agents. BUTTT purchase or GROWW your own , chemical & pesticide free ORGANIC produce and you should certainly juice the skins of the carrots and get all the additional micro nutrients your body needs

[JayDeeofKrakInk]

It really is a wonderful juicer.

[Koolvedge]

i couldn't hear the material he said the bag was made out of ? is it unbleached, plastic based, and chemical free ?

[philotaaveti]

no need to peel them just clean them

[HotVoodooWitch]

Peeling makes for much better tasting, less perishable carrot juice. The loss of nutrients is negligible and the payoff is great.

I never get that much throwback with my Norwalk. I wonder if his blade is dull?

[isaachaze1]

@philotaaveti agree. no reason to cut the tops off either. never heard anything about the peel causing the juice to be more perishable.

[handelsme]

@philotaaveti well if they are not organic carrots then peeling them isn't such a bad thing.

[philotaaveti]

@handelsme carrots come from below the earth so dont think they can realy use much pesticide or growth hormone could be wrong though

end of story wash your produce even organic

[enternetglobal]

@philotaaveti He believes there are too many toxins in he skin. But I know it is debateable.

[mark28map]

your a crack head obviously. Do your research. Your the kind of guy who buys an abflex and stair stepper along with countless other get healthy quick devices.

[mark28map]

what a joke. This guy needs to call a dietician. He is going to kill himself with that much carrot juice. to much sugar a little bit goes along way. needs to mix things up. How many humans do you know that can eat a pound of carots in a 3 minute drink?

[ponhand]

go and drink some coke and eat some potatoto chips, and you'll see. Don't be ignorant!!!!

[ACEBAKER911]

watch the Raw Food vids by

LIFEREGENERATOR

they are the best

Greens are the answer

[joeb0]

oh yeah, Norman Walker REALLY didn't know what he was doing when he invented this juicer, (sarcasm) knowing he only lived for ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTEEN YEARS by drinking 10 cups of vegetable juice from concentrate a day and refusing to eat fast food.

[heroknaderi]

i love your juicer

[boldsoulsister]

This fella's as warm as the Arctic. Nice choice for a documentary. And then there's the PEELING of the carrots. MMM... how to waste the most nutrition... ok....

[brctek]

What is the problem with the peeling of the carrots? Unlike potatoes, the main nutrition in a carrot is not just under the skin. I never peeled my carrots before juicing, just cleaned them with a brush until I started using a very firm brush and found a white gelatin like substance on the brush after about 5 carrot cleanings. I now peel all the carrots, removing surface bacteria and can store the juice for 3 days in the fridge after evacuating the air in the mason jar. So...keep peeling!

[handelsme]

@boldsoulsister well if they are not organic carrots then peeling them isn't such a bad thing.

[enternetglobal]

@boldsoulsister Well he is an old friend of the family. lol And as for peelings, are you sure most of the nutrients are under the skin. I know its aid for Watermelon or Potatoes....

[PeterAppleseed]

mmm good
