My New Toy

Remember the post about the Juicing? check it out here.

Well, after a lot of research and budget discussions with my husband (haha), I chose this one:



It is the OMEGA J8003 Nutrition Center Juicer




It is a great Juicer. 

It is pricier than the centrifugal juicers and the fruits and veggies have to be cut smaller.

But,
It is a what you call a Masticating Juicer, which means it kind of chews the produce to get the juice out. 
This also means it does not heat up the fruits and veggies at all, so nutritionally it is the best one, no vitamins and minerals get lost. The juice is 'stable' for a longer period and can stay in the fridge for a few hours as with the centrifugal ones the juice should be consumed right after juicing.

And the cleanup is super fast, the parts are small and rinse off super easy. 


For us, this was the best choice and I have used it daily since I got it.

Tips:
If you juice a lot of greens (greens are best!) add some lemons and an apple, takes the 'earthy' taste out a little bit.

And it is no secret that consuming a lot of greens supports your Immune System!
  (by the way, so much safer and more effective than any flu shot)
