And since my Hurom is so powerful, I can do a lot more than just juice in it-I regularly use it to make nut milks, smoothies (it comes with a separate strainer just for making smoothies), and to help me with canning. But if you plan on juicing regularly, it’ll be money well spent. In fact, to get a good quality slow juicer (like the Hurom I have and recommend), you’re going to be spending upwards for $400. They are quiet, easy-to-clean, and really give you best quality juice. The “slow” is a bit of a misnomer, because while slower than a centrifugal juicer, slow juicers are still very fast. However, if you really want to get into juicing and get the most flavor and nutrients out of your fruits and veggies, a slow juicer is the way to go. If you only want to juice occasionally and not for nutrition purposes (like say for cooking or baking), a centrifugal juicer will do you fine. The advantage of these kind of juicers? They are very affordable-you can grab one for about $40. The disadvantages of these kind of juicers are pretty numerous-they aren’t very efficient at extracting juice, they don’t do well juicing leafy greens, they are loud as all get out, and some of these juicers get hot enough that they actually break down of the nutrients in the juice. The typical juicer you grab from the big box store is probably a centrifugal juicer. If you’re just starting out with juicing, the first thing you’ll need is…well…a juicer! There are two main kinds of juicers out there-centrifugal (AKA: fast) and masticating (AKA: slow or cold-press) juicers. For me, juicing is a great way to kickstart healthy momentum.
#Healthy juices skin#
My skin is brighter and clearer, and I tend to get sick less often. If it doesn’t? Skip it! For me personally, I see some real differences in the way I feel when I’m consistently juicing-I assume mostly because my overall consumption of fruits and veggies is up. And sometimes, that’s all we need to help us keep up with a healthy diet.Īs with everything, if it makes you and your family feel good, then do it. It’s not better than whole foods, it’s just different. Instead, I think adding all-natural, unsweetened fruit and vegetable juice to help supplement your diet is a great idea. I don’t recommend using fruit or vegetable juices as a replacement for food. I believe that whole foods (and the fiber that comes along with them) are vital part of a healthy diet. Now, a lot of folks out there think of juicing as a replacement for whole foods-I don’t agree with that. Have you guys gotten into juicing yet? If you haven’t, you should try it! It’s a fun and tasty way to pack a ton of healthy nutrients into a drinkable treat that’ll make you feel great.
