			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The twin gears are unique to the juicing world. They are precisely what they claim to be &#8211; gears. Not blades, augers or rotors. The twin gears mesh together at a clearance of a mere 4/1000 of an inch to gently crush, squeeze and grind the juice from the produce, much like your teeth do.</p>
<p>Those &#8220;cut out&#8221;places along the length of the gears serve different purposes. The recessed area along the gear length more easily accepts fibrous vegetables and herbs like carrots or stinging nettle. The actual &#8220;cut out&#8221;places are fantastic for cutting the stringy fibers found in celery and other long-fibered herbs. Those &#8220;cut out&#8221; places are what allows you to put a full-length stalk of celery into the Hippocrates without jamming or clogging.</p>
<p>The twin gears are gears &#8211; NOT blades. Because they are not blades, they are not sharp. They work in a totally different way. With proper use and care, the twin gears should last many years with no maintenance.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yes, there is. When you have completed juicing, there is an accumulation of pulp that you would discard. Turn the juicer back on and run some of this discarded pulp back through the unit, alternating with white table sugar, until you have used about 1 cup of sugar. This polishes the twin gears and removes the stains. Another way to remove stains is to soak the parts to be cleaned over night in a white wine or apple vinegar/ water solution. Use at least 50 percent vinegar (up to 100% vinegar for heavy stains). Juicing a lot of honeydew or cantaloupe can lighten stains as well.</p>
<p>Catch the water that you rinse your Food Processor with and pour it over your plants. The vitamin, mineral and fiber enriched water is better off in your garden as a fertilizer rather than blocking your sink. When you have minced garlic and onion it is especially important to clean the features straight away because of their strong flavor that can stick to the parts for a little while after it has been washed. Cleaning Living Food Processors is environmental, quick and easy.</p>
<p>There are a number of things to keep in mind here also:</p>
<p>a. Do not use chlorine bleach on the twin gears. The ends of the gears are nylon. Chlorine attacks nylon.</p>
<p>b. Vegetable stains are on the inside of the machine where no one sees them.</p>
<p>c. Vegetable stains are safe  chemical residues are not.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Far infrared is an energy. It is the natural, resonant frequency range of water and all organic matter &#8211; even humans. The wave length of infrared energy is between 0.7 microns and 1000 microns, just beyond the frequency range of visible light. And one part of this range is 5 to 15 microns which is far infrared. Far infrared energy waves are the safest and most beneficial energy source available. We would like to call it the &#8220;Life Force Frequency&#8221;.</p>
<p>The water molecules in juice want to resonate at their natural tempo. However, the juicing process can be a bit rough on water molecules, making them a bit unstable. By reminding them of their natural resonant frequency, it restabilizes the water molecules. You could possibly compare this process with playing &#8220;the mother’s heartbeat&#8221;to an infant &#8211; it soothes and calms the baby. In the case of juice, it stablilizes the juice for a longer period of time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>At the heart of the Greenpower Juicers is the twin gears.</strong></p>
<p>These precision designed and engineered twin gears incorporate magnetic and bioceramic technology. There are pocket recesses in the twin gears with a specialized cutting mechanism to separate a living juice from the pulp.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.my-greenpower-juicer.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/06/twingearcross11.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><strong>At the core of each of the twin gears is a series of magnets which are alternated between positive and negative.</strong></p>
<p>When the two gears are placed side by side, the positive and negative magnets are also alternated between the gears, which generate a positive charge, or attraction. At this molecular level, the magnets are creating positive ions as the gears spin.</p>
<p>Surrounding the inner core of magnets is a second level containing bio-ceramic particles which is covered by an outer layer of stainless steel. Bio ceramic particles, produced by infra red technology, also emit positive ions. The magnets in the gears work in conjunction with the bio-ceramic particles; the magnets recharge the bio-ceramic material and the bio-ceramic material recharges the magnets. This action enables more positive ions to be generated than can be held in charge by either the magnets or bio-ceramic material and the overflow of positive ions add more vitality and longevity to the life of the enzymes and nutrients, reducing oxidation and keeping the juice fresher, longer.</p>
<p>The newly introduced “Jang” twin gears mesh together more finely than ever before, so more of the cellulose wall is opened during the extraction process, leaving the enzymes and nutrients suspended in colloidal form, making them more accessible to the body. This finer meshing means you can grind even such solid materials as coffee beans, peanuts and sesame seeds.</p>
<p><strong>With the new Hippocrates juicer you can expect a smooth pulp free textured juice and much less foam on your wheatgrass juice than ever before.</strong></p>
<p>Improvements in the design have also led to a longer warranty of 12 years on the motor, parts and labour.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <a href="http://www.my-greenpower-juicer.com/store/juicer-greenpower-hippocrates-twin-gear-juicer.html">Hippocrates by Green Power</a> is the lastest model from the inventor, Mr Kim. While the Hippocrates is based on exactly the same principles such as the slow turning twin gears, a few improvements have been made to make the machine much more friendly for the Western consumer. For example, the machine has been designed to be more compact so as not to take up so much room in the kitchen. Also, the washable parts on the larger Greenpower juicers were harder to watch because of their size.</p>
<p>The Hippocrates model from Green Power comes with a twelve year warranty and is the culmination of 7 years R &amp; D by the inventor of the twin gear system. The stainless steel locking mechanism exclusive to the Hippocrates model means that there are no longer any plastic parts that are subject to stress. The internal stainless steel locking mechanism provides greater strength than the plastic knob the prior design.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Certainly. There are many factors that influence the &#8220;keeping time&#8221; or stability of juice. We can take a look at these. First, however, let’s understand what is meant by juice stability.</p>
<p>To get a very rough idea of what is meant by stability, let’s look at a toy &#8211; the spinning top/ When you first twist and drop it onto the flat surface, it stands up very straight and spins very fast. The longer it spins, however, the more it begins to wobble, doesn’t stand so straight any more, spins more slowly, and eventually drops over onto its side and spins to a complete stop, it’s spinning energy exhausted. At what point would you say the top is no longer stable?</p>
<p>a.      At the first sign of the first wobble?<br />
b.      Sometime in the &#8220;middle&#8221; process when it becomes obvious that it is no longer standing straight? Or<br />
c.       When it falls over and comes to a skidding stop?</p>
<p>The water/mineral molecule, protein molecules, essential fatty acid molecules, etc. are just like that spinning top in that they spin for a certain length of time, then begin to wobble and eventually fall. We can measure miniscule molecular changes in the spin of the various types of molecules within the juice and can literally plot the &#8220;wobbly graph&#8221; of a mineral losing it’s stability long before anyone can detect any changes in taste, color or smell. This is the point we determine as loss of stability.</p>
<p>Green Power wants the molecule in the juice to stay as long as possible. Features such as:<br />
a. Slow 110 rpm reduces heat build up in the juice and therefore, slows down the &#8220;aging process&#8221;.<br />
b. The recombination of water/mineral molecules increasing the mineral content of the juice slows down the destabilizing process. And,<br />
c. Far infrared energy stabilizes the water molecule in the juice for a longer length of time.</p>
<p>We want you to have the freshest juice possible whenever you choose to drink it. An independent Fresh Squeezed Juice Stability Study was conducted, comparing carrot and apple juice that had been prepared in five different types of juicers. <strong>Green powered carrot juice</strong> and <strong>Green Powered apple juice</strong> both topped the charts in long-term stability.</p>
