Staying Cool and Healthy in the Summer Heat

Summer is on its way and the weather is getting hotter. Just imagining the scorching heat makes it easy to lose your appetite and energy. With the growing interest in healthy lifestyles, cooling down with high calories such as ice cream and lemonade may not be as appealing as it used to be. So what can be done to beat the summer heat?

Cool off and stay healthy with your own homemade juice and sorbet! Delicious and nutritious, not only will it help cool you down, but by being able to control what you put into your juice and sorbet, you'll be able to stay healthy and in shape during the hot summer.

Due to consumer's interest in healthy lifestyles, quality juicers that allow users to consume vital nutrients have appeared on the market. Korea has also produced quality juicers with unique characteristics that have gained popularity among consumers around the world.

Here, we would like to introduce three internationally popular juicers with the unique functions and characteristics!

Hurom, one of Korea's popular juicer, is well known for its Hurom Slow Juicer. Not only popular in Korea, Hurom has gained popularity in the US, Europe and 50 other countries. It was even awarded gold in 2010 at the world's top 3 international invention fairs, the Swiss Geneva, US Pittsburgh and German Nuremberg. Hurom was also selected as a World-Class Korean Product for 3 consecutive years, 2010, 2011 and 2012. So what makes Hurom Slow Juicer so popular?

Unlike the other traditional juicers, the Hurom Slow Juicer utilizes its patented "Slow Squeezing System (SSS)". Instead of grinding the ingredients within the juicer, the "SSS" lowers the temperature and slowly squeezes the ingredients which help preserve the nutrition and original taste of the ingredients. The result is a much higher quality juice, in taste and in nutritional value.

Hurom Slow Juicer's Condenser Reducer Motor is another characteristic that sets it apart from other juicers. While traditional juicers grind their ingredients at a high speed, the Condenser Reducer Motor ensures that Hurom will function more quietly and with less vibration. Also, Hurom Slow Juicer comes with a self-cleaning function, which is a big plus when it comes to choosing a juicer.

Hurom Slow Juicer can be used to create a variety of drinks and sorbets, such as fruit juices, vegetable juices, smoothies and almond or soy milk. To help you get started, here is Hurom's recipe for a natural fruit sorbet to help you cool off in the hot summer.

Angel Juicer is another internationally popular Korean juicer brand. Consisting of high quality, solid, stainless steel twin gears, with other components constructed from stainless steel as well, Angel Juicer's are easy to maintain. The twin gears utilized by the Angel Juicer are unique when compared to other juicers. Operating at 82 RPMs(Revolutions Per Minute), Angel Juicer has the lowest RPM gears in the juicer market. The low RPM results in very little oxidation when juicing and higher quality juice by keeping more enzymes due to its low speed, which produces almost not heat and friction.
