Vita-Mix Health & Wellness for cancer patients  

Stories of encouragement

"I believe it has been a major part of a near-miraculous recovery from concurrent bouts with advanced cancer and heart disease."

Tom S, IL
November 2002

"My husband Greg had throat cancer 6 years ago and he needed pureed food for a feeding tube for 4 months. The Vita-Mix enabled him to heal through the nutrition of whole foods."

Michelle M.

"The John Wayne Cancer Institute is a supporter of the Vita-Mix."

With the help of this wonderful invention, patients can more easily satisfy their goal of eating five servings of fruits and vegetables daily. The therapeutic antioxidants and phytochemicals in Vita-Mix whole food meals have shown to lower the risk of heart disease, cancer and other health problems.

Vita-Mix has made my job easier and more satisfying. My patients can more reliably comply with their diets. They really enjoy the fact that whole fruits and vegetables are used - with no compromise in taste.

In summary, Vita-Mix means "instant health" to me. It's quick, easy and fun to use. There are not preservatives, artificial colorings or flavorings or unnessary additives. All you get is wholesome food that's tasty and good for you. I recommend this product to my patients and my own family.

-Rachel S. Beller, M.S., R.D.
John Wayne Cancer Institute, California


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.

Research also suggests that specific foods are true cancer-fighting warriors. Be sure to include all of these on your weekly shopping list.

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

Vita-Mix - an important part of your cancer prevention strategy.

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.

Juice whole foods Cook steaming hot soups and sauces
Grind grains and knead dough Make frozen treats
