I am super excited about my new Jack Lalanne juicer I just purchased from someone off of craigslist.com. I bought it for $60 and it sells for $130. Probably could’ve bought it cheaper but the lady I purchased it from was only one town over.
Today I juiced 1 large orange, 1 plum, 1 peach, 1/4 pineapple. I was able to get in 4 fruit in a matter of seconds and it tasted wonderful. I like the fact that I was able to drink juice without sugars, high fructose corn syrups, etc. Also, I love the fact that its fresh and full of enzymes. Now I had to see if the juice critic (my 2 year old) like it. If she would drink it then I know for sure that it was tasty. SHE LOVED IT! She said, “mommy more” and I was thrilled to give her more because I know that she will be getting all kinds of vitamins and nutrients from fresh juice. I even gave some to baby girl and dilluted it with some filtered water. She drank it also without a second thought.
Today I stopped at a local farmers market and picked up some organic apples, a mango, blueberries, and tomatoes for about $10. I want to try some of the other recipes in the Juicer Recipe book. I’m hoping to incorporate more leafy vegetables like organic spinach, kale, carrots, and celery into some recipes because these ingredients boost your overall health.
Juicing is fun and quick but more than that it feels good to know that I can ensure that my kids will get all of their 5 fruits and vegetables in a drink. Below is a link so that you can read the health benefits of juicing.
