How long do you run your vitamix?

I would say that we've been running ours for probably somewhere between 30 and 60 seconds. I saw a video the other day saying to run it for 2 minutes. So this morning I did two minutes and it was more smooth.

Apparently the longer run time will cause more of the cell walls to be broken which means that you get even MORE nutrition.

Yes! I agree. I run mine about a minute thinking that is a long time. I will try two whole minutes next time!
