Erica Taft credits cold pressed juicing for healing her autoimmune conditions

PURE Juicer Community Spotlight – Erica Taft

Our PURE community, made up of vibrant juicers across the globe, are committed to making a difference in their health and the health of others. Our goal is to use these stories as inspiration, and to demonstrate how juicing can help anyone reach new levels of vitality and community.

When we met Erica in 2022, we knew she struggled with auto-immune issues. As a holistic nutritionist who has an inspirational instagram presence (@overcome_autoimmune), she has been quite open about her journey using juicing and raw foods to change her health. We knew that her results had shocked her doctors, but it wasn’t until we did a live with her in October 2022 that we fully understood the role the PURE Juicer had played in the restoration of her health. We are grateful to share her story with you.

Refreshing cucumber celery juice sweetened with green apples and the subtle tang of lemon juice is poured from a pitcher into a glass bottle labeled PURE Juicer. Two juice bottles stand in front of a PURE Juicer, sliced lemons, sliced cucumbers, and a stack of green apples.

Cucumber Celery Juice with Apples and Lemons

Don’t like the taste of celery juice? We dare you to try this delicious, hydrating recipe made with apples, lemons, and cucumbers.

Before the world came to a screeching halt in the spring of 2020, one of the biggest trends on Instagram was the constant stream of celery-juice toting celebrities. Gwyneth Paltrow, Kim Kardashian, Selma Blair, and Pharrell Williams had all given their seal of approval on this bright green, sugar-free drink. In response, social media influencers began flocking to their local juiceries.

Homemade Detox Green Juice Recipe

If your body is in need of a reset–and let’s face it, many of us are in need of a reset around this time of year–you may be on the lookout for a new purifying green juice recipe that will detox your system. If so, you’re in for a treat: our fresh, purifying Big Green Juice will not only tantalize your taste buds, but also cleanse and calm your digestive tract.

Before we get to the nitty gritty of our Big Green Juice, you may have questions about embarking upon a green juice cleanse. Juicing vegetables has become quite popular in recent years, despite the fact that many people report “fearing” the look of green juice (we still can’t get over this 2014 YouGov survey).
