Reviewer Louise Chu likes the Vita-Prep 3, the commercial version of the Vita-Mix 5200, which she says is a "workhorse" in professional kitchens.

The Vita-Prep has long been the staple blender in restaurant kitchens. Numerous chefs, including Thomas Keller, endorse it.
The new Vita-Prep 3 has a three-horsepower motor that spins the stainless steel blades at 37,000 rpm. In addition to standards like ice and vegetables, you can fill the polycarbonate pitcher with peanuts to make smooth peanut butter (chunky if you prefer) or with rice to make rice flour. No liquid is necessary. While these feats can also be done in the other recommended blenders, the Vita-Prep 3’s combination of pitcher shape, blade angle, and power produces a far more consistent product.
The speed dial turns smoothly, never clicking into a preset speed, allowing you to make minute adjustments. There’s also a high-speed switch that sends the blender straight into turbocharge mode.
The motor is thermally protected, so in the unlikely event that it overheats it will automatically shut down before burning out.
The Vita-Prep is a proven, durable workhorse in pro kitchens: The pitcher withstands spoon and ladle smacks and drops into stainless steel sinks. The gears work despite inadvisable jiggling and jamming. And the blending power produces flawlessly smooth results.

Vitamix Grapefruit Smoothie

2011-03-26T21:57:00.001-07:00

Here is a grapefruit.

I want to get as much whole food out of it as possible. So I only peel the skin,

and divide it into a few pieces.

Instead of chewing them all to get all the nutrients from whole food, I put them into Vitamix.

And after 30 seconds:

Now what's in the Vitamix is not just the fruit juice - this is whole food (less skin) including seeds, pulps, fibers, etc, the nutrients I can't get from the juice alone. By the way, the seeds disappear completely. Vitamix does a much better job than me chewing them. It says on the Vitamix website,

"Breakthrough research from the University of Toronto shows that Vitamix processing may significantly enhance nutrient intake from whole foods.

The results of a 2008 study at the University of Toronto clearly indicate that the Vitamix 5200 has the ability to disrupt plant cell wall structure and significantly reduce food particle size which may enhance the bioavailability of essential nutrients in fruits and vegetables."

If you are on a diet to manage your weight, these extra whole food nutrients and fibers will make you full so you won't be craving for more food.

If you are into saving money, the extra nutrients will be in your stomach instead of being wasted. So you don't need to spend more money for extra food simply to get enough nutrients.
