How much of the value of the vegetables / fruit is lost in the pulp? It seems like there is a great deal of waste.

Pulp is merely fiber and fiber has no significant nutritional value because the body can't digest it. That's why the fiber then goes on to help cleanse the colon.

But some of the juice / nutrients will still be in the pulp after juicing as no juice machine can extract 100% of the nutrients. However, as a general rule of thumb, the drier the pulp, the more nutrition / juice has been extracted from the vegetables.

Do you have questions about juicing vegetables and/or fruits?

Do you have questions about natural health and healing?

If so, Ask Jesse a question:

Some questions and answers may appear online to help others learn more about juicing, juicing techniques and about health and while we're at it, about happiness too!

If you really do not want your question and answer to appear online, just let me know.

Not all questions and answers will appear online. Instead, I like to publish those question and answers that can most benefit others.
