Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 4047341 United States 03/11/2013 01:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I really need to do this. I've been feeling really sluggish lately. Thanks OP, I'd give you 5 stars but I've used them up already. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 8078225 Do it! I was a couch slob for weeks, gained weight and had no energy. I saw those juicer infomercials and thought I could do the same with my cheap ass blender. Hardcore juicers probably don't like this method but I'm broke and at least trying a healthy lifestyle :-) It's working, I feel better than ever! |

Why no fruit? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31024134 No fruit just because of sugar content. My blender works just fine breaking everything down. I don't want the pulp, just the juice. The juice goes right down the gullet while the pulp goes into the compost pile our into the dog food. Juice with pulp is too much for my tummy. Juicing has made me feel more energized :-) |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 32619552 United States 03/11/2013 03:09 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The green smoothie fad is gaining steam and is a great way to fight the NWO assault on your body...we used a standard cuisanart blender for awhile, it works ok. Noticed the motor was starting to smoke when I jammed to much in it at ounce. Wife bought a vitamix a couple weeks ago and that thing is a beast. We put fruit in ours, so the kids will eat it. Here's my recipe: Spinach Kale Zucchini Brussels sprouts Bean sprouts or alfalfa sprouts Carrots Celery Parsley Cilinatro Apple Orange Pear Radishes Frozen mango Frozen berries I can tell you this, if you drink a smoothie like this in the morning you will be full and not hungry all day. It will wake up your body and you will CRAVE this everyday. This has been a godsend even my pickiest child now begs for green smoothies! I need to find a source for spiraling or chia seeds to get protein though. (Ghetto grocery stores in my area have no idea wtf "chia seeds or spirolina are) Green smoothies will improve your health guaranteed! |

I went searching online for a Vitamix today because I saw it mentioned in some blogs. I was not expecting the price! That'll have to wait. Unless there are 101 other uses for it besides making juice. |

Because of the delicate nature of asparagus, the best way to hit your cells with their full antioxidant punch is raw and juiced. Asparagus has a surprisingly high amount of protein with an added powerhouse of vitamins and minerals. Just 53 calories (10 oz) contain 9g of protein, 119% of your daily need of vitamin C, 9% of iron and 47% of calcium. It is also very high in vitamins E and K, selenium, manganese, copper, potassium, phosphorus, folate, niacin, riboflavin, and thiamin. Here's to healthy living OP. :heckyeah: |
Gratia Plena User ID: 1220977 United States 05/05/2013 08:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have almost tried juicing a few times now but can never bring myself to do it. I am such a picky eater, I am afraid I will waste money on it. And I live in an area with no juicing-type cafes or restaurants to even try it. I tried eating cilantro recently and couldn't do it because it smells like stink bugs. Maybe next time I'm in a bigger metro area I'll look up a juicing cafe and give it a shot before I spend the money. |

It's fantastic. Just became a habit . . . one of my better ones I must say :) :healthheart: |
