How to get the most from a Vitamix Blender

Make your own baby food

The best way to start your kids off to a healthy start is when they are babies.

Preparing baby food is easy with the Vitamix. Simply steam or gently cook the healthful ingredients of your choice, from carrots and peas to sweet potatoes, apples or pears, then puree them.

The machine breaks the whole fruits and vegetables down to the cellular level, so nutrients are freed--not stripped away. Using the whole vegetable or fruit allows you retain most, if not all, of the food's original nutrients and fiber.

When you use your Vita-Mix machine to make your own baby food, you'll know what's going into your baby's diet and what's not -- like preservatives, fillers, extra sodium and sugar!

Kids love smoothies

"Smoothies are a great way to get kids to eat both fruits and vegetables," according to Jodi Berg. "Start out with a healthy base of fresh fruits, and even the most militant anti-veggie toddler won't be able to taste the squash or carrot you've slipped into the smoothie."

Vitamix Ice Cream!

Using the Vita-Mix machine, it's easy to prepare healthful frozen treats in under a minute. A powerful motor and precision blades turn healthy ingredients like frozen fruit and low fat milk into a soft-serve style ice cream with all the flavor of more fattening fare.

If you are living with diabetes, you need a Vita-Mix machine.

High-fiber whole food meals are at the heart of the diabetic diet. That's what keeps insulin levels low.

The Vita-Mix machine can create such a wide variety of whole food meals that you can actually eliminate up to 10 small appliances from your kitchen counter!

Whole food meals made in the Vita-Mix machine use whole fruits and vegetables in their entirety. Nothing is thrown away so the cost-savings on produce alone is substantial. A variety of grains, beans, and nuts take only a minute to grind and are easy to incorporate into all your favorite recipes. For even more savings, you can buy grains in bulk, grind large quantities and store them in the refrigerator or freezer for future use.

Thousands and thousands of people who have diabetes are enjoying life - especially at the breakfast, lunch and dinner table - thanks to Vita-Mix.

It's true. You don't usually see "healthy" and "cheesecake" in the same sentence, but leave it to Vita-Mix to find a way. Tofu and cottage cheese team up for a terrific texture without the high fat feature. Using only egg whites cuts cholesterol. The Vita-Mix machine blends the ingredients to a silky-smooth consistency. The result is low in fat and high on healthy.

Then we come to the raspberry coulis. It's red. It's delicious. And this amazingly smooth raspberry sauce is what Vita-Mix processing is all about. Only the Vita-Mix can liquefy raspberries, seeds and all, into a rich, velvety sauce. And the bonus is more than incredible taste. Raspberry seeds normally pass through the body undigested, but they are loaded with ellagic acid, noted for its potent cancer preventive properties. Vita-Mix processing releases all the valuable nutrition from this amazing little fruit, recently reclassified as a "fruitaceutical", by a team of researchers at Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center.

The secret is in the Vita-Mix variable speed control -- plus its incredible 2+ peak horse-power motor. This high-speed power allows the Vita-Mix machine to completely crush whole fruits and vegetables so your body can consume the foods' total nutrients.

That's what is needed to get all the heart disease and stroke prevention nutrients out of the foods you are eating.

Many people suffer from gluten-intolerance, while others actually have a more serious condition known as celiac disease.

Celiac disease is treated by eliminating all gluten from the diet. Gluten sets off an autoimmune reaction that causes the destruction of the villi in the small intestine and seriously interferes with nutrient absorption and good health.

The right equipment can make changing to a gluten-free lifestyle almost effortless.

Avoid hidden Gluten in foods
When you buy gluten-free grains and grind your own flour, you get exactly what you need while capturing all the goodness of the grain at its nutritional peak. You can even crack grains for a nutritious whole grain, high fiber cereal. Freshly ground mixtures take only a minute to make in the Vita-Mix Super 5000, which includes an extra container with blades that are specially designed for grinding dry ingredients. The standard "wet blade" container is used for making whole food juice, fruit smoothies, instant ice cream and fresh, hot soup. The most important benefit of preparing your meals in the Vita-Mix machine is that you can avoid the hidden gluten found in so many processed foods-and you'll also avoid the added fat, sugar and preservatives. Why waste time reading labels when you can prepare nutritious meals from fresh whole foods in minutes with the Vita-Mix Super 5000.

and Save Money
Whole food meals made in the Vita-Mix machine use fruits and vegetables in their entirety, so nothing is thrown away and the cost-savings on produce alone is substantial. Pre-packaged gluten-free flours, cereals, breads and cookies can be very expensive-if and when you can find them-so you're saving time as well as money making your own freshly-ground mixes. A variety of grains, beans, and nuts take only a minute to grind and are easy to incorporate into all your favorite recipes. For even more savings, you can buy in bulk and grind large quantities of any fresh, gluten-free ingredients and store them in the refrigerator or freezer for future use.

Years and years of research at hundreds of hospitals has resulted in two simple rules that are easy to follow:

1. Eat a plant-based diet. One of the most exciting discoveries in cancer research is the cancer-battling potential of the phytonutrients in fruits and vegetables that have been shown to stop the growth of cancer cells and activate certain enzymes that can kill cancer-causing toxins.

2. Slash dietary fat. Evidence points to a link between dietary fat-especially saturated fat in red meat-and the occurrence of cancer. A high-fat diet accelerates the production of free radicals which damage DNA. When DNA, the genetic materials that programs cells, is damaged, the incidence of cancerous changes in cells can escalate.

Both of these rules are easily followed when you
enjoy whole food meals made in your Vita-Mix machine.

The Vita-Mix machine makes eating nine servings of fruits and vegetables every day amazingly easy.

Just drop whole foods-seeds, stems and all-into your Vita-Mix machine, flip the switch and you get delicious whole food juices, smoothies, soups and frozen treats in a matter of minutes.

The real bonus is that you are also getting up to three times more nutrition than you get from eating those same foods cooked or raw.

Research proves it. Vita-Mix whole food meals is preventative medicine.

"Dear Vita-Mix,
We are both suffering from high cholesterol, my own has been 257.

After purchasing our Vita-Mix machine I read through the booklets that came with it to see what foods would be beneficial in lowering my cholesterol level. I have used a combination of 1 cup soy milk blended with ¾ cup oats, honey to taste, and strawberries or raspberries (1/2 c). In three weeks of consuming this at breakfast, my cholesterol has come down 32 points to 224!!! It would not have happened if not for this wonderful machine that made it so very easy and fast to prepare."
