Alkalizing with a Magimix le Duo juicer
Friday, May 7th, 2010When we are looking to alkalize our diet one of the most effective options that we can pursue is to drink more fresh fruit and vegetable juice. I use a Magimix le Duo juicer on a daily basis to create things like carrot, orange and ginger juice and apple, spinach and ginger juice. It is easy to consume four, five or even six portions of fruit and veg in one juice. Of course, making a juice actually removes all the fiber. This is the juice pulp that is thrown away. However with it does leave you with is a drink that is dense in nutrients, minerals and vitamins.
So the question becomes, what type of juicer would be best suited to your needs. Personally I am a big fan of centrifugal juicers like the Magimix le Duo and the Breville BJE200XL machine. This is because they can help you to quickly make a great tasting fruit and vegetable juice. On top of this they are also fairly easy to clean up after use.
The main issue regarding purchasing your own juicer is to ensure that you actually use it. It would be a big waste of money to buy one with grand hopes but then just letting it sit in a kitchen cupboard. There are a lot of great points to owning your own juicing machine. These include your own health benefits; economic benefits; and environmental benefits. Some pretty large claims for a simple juicer!
Let me be clear about what I mean. When you own your own juicer you will be able to make your own nutrient rich fruit and vegetable drinks which is good for your health. Once you have purchased your own juicer all you then have to buy is the fruit and vegetables that you want to juice. This can be cheaper than purchasing ready made fruit and vegetable drinks. Further, environmental benefits include the fact that the only waste is fruit and vegetable pulp that can be used in the garden.
