Different Types of Juicers: Which one is best for you?

So you decided to purchase a juicer, but how do you know which type of juicer is right for you? Let's take a look at the different kinds:

Manual Juicers:
According to justjuice.org, "As the name applies, manual juicers are operated by hand and require a little elbow grease." Manual juicers are relatively inexpensive and are ideal for juicing citrus fruits or wheatgrass. As a whole, manual juicers are limited to the range of fruits and veggies they can juice.

Benefits: Juices well, does not require electricity, less expensive than other juicers in the market, less cleaning time.

Centrifugal Juicers:
Traditionally, this is the most common type of juicer according to Kristen Aiken of Huffington Post Taste. "These typically utilize a fast spinning metal blade that spins against a mesh filter, separating juice from flesh via centrifugal force. The juice and pulp are then separated into different containers." Although centrifugal juicers are easy to use and clean, the nutrient retention for a centrifugal juicer is not all that great. Because it operates at such a fast speed and creates heat, much of the enzymes found in fruits and vegetables are lost.

Benefits: 

• Affordable and easy to use. Centrifugal juicers are great for beginners and people who are short on juicing time. 
• Easier to clean than electric juicers
• Great for juicing stringy, fibrous veggies (like celery)
• Takes in bigger chunks of fruits and vegetables than any other juicer types. 

Cold Press Juicers (Masticating Juicers)
While masticating juicers are relatively new to the juicing market, they are highly effective in their ability to break down hard, fibrous cell walls of fresh produce and produces a high juice yield and very little dry pulp. Because they don't produce much heat, they keep much of the valuable nutrients your body needs intact.

Benefits:

• Truly versatile: they can juice anything and everything including hard, fibrous vegetables such as celery as well as leafy greens like wheatgrass, and soft fruits like tomatoes. 
• Less waste. Masticating juicers produces a lot of juice and very dry pulp. This means that less of your produce is going to waste. 
• Diverse uses
• Low motor speed, which means that your juice is not being oxidized from the heat during the juicing process. 

In the market for a juicer? Our Total Juicer Pro is now on sale for only $149.99!

Juicing the Right Way

As part of a balanced diet, juicing can pose incredible health benefits. For starters, 95% of vitamins and enzymes our bodies need are found in the juice of raw fruits and vegetables. Juicing not only strengthens the immune system, but facilitates weight loss, increases energy levels, and reduces the risk of heart disease. Many people who incorporate juicing into their diet also report healthier, more radiant skin! But is there a right or a wrong way to juice? How do you ensure you achieve optimal results from juicing?

According to Becky Hand, a licensed and registered Dietitian from Spark People, if you want to have success with juicing, practice the following tips:

1. Turn Yucky into Yummy. 

Are you someone who prefers not to eat certain fruits or vegetables due to texture and taste? Juicing, according to Becky, can be a way to incorporate produce that you might not normally eat. "Beets, kale and spinach tend to be less noticeable when combined with the flavors of fruits and berries." She suggests experimenting with different flavors and produce to achieve a recipe that you will enjoy! 

2. Don't Pitch the Pulp

Don't let the nutrients found in pulp go to waste! Do you know you can add it to soups, stews, grain and rice dishes, pasta sauces and muffins? Don't be afraid to get a little creative in the kitchen! 

3. Try a Juicy Smoothie

This is a wonderful idea for those who are trying to achieve a well balanced meal. Try incorporating your juice with yogurt (as a source of protein) or nut butter or avocado (as a source of healthy fats).

4. The Five-a-Day Challenge: 

If you are struggling to get at least 5-servings-a-day of fruits and veggies, juicing can certainly help you get there! Becky advises that you make sure you are incorporating enough whole fruits and veggies, whole grains, legumes and lentils to meet your 25 grams of fiber as well!

5. Rotate and Renew: 

No need to stick to the same recipe. Switch it up time to time and explore the many options available at your local farmers market. Some fruits and veggies are at their peak during a particular season! 

6. Boost Flavor: 

Becky suggests using herbs, such as basil, and spices such as ginger or cayenne, to add flavor to your juice blends and smoothies. 

7. Remember Food Safety:

Before you even get out the juicer, make sure you thoroughly wash your hands and produce. To ensure that your juicer is clean, make sure you follow the manufacturers directions.  Typically, you want to wash your juicer with hot, soapy water. 

8. Drink Now, Not Later! 

According to Becky, "Freshly made juices and smoothies are highly perishable since no preservatives or pasteurization is used." She advises to drink or freeze your mixture shortly after juicing or blending.

Safety in the Kitchen: 5 Common Kitchen Accidents

Even the most seasoned cook encounters accidents in the kitchen. Thankfully there are precautions you can take to avoid serious injury. With the help of Teri Tsang Barrett, a writer for The Food Network, we highlight the top 5 tips on how to avoid ending up in the emergency room. 

1.Splitting Bagels Can Be Dangerous to Your Hand

Although delicious, bagels can ruin your morning if you end up cutting your finger. "BRI's" also known as "Bagel-related injuries" in the medical field, are an all too common problem. So how do you assure that you can enjoy your morning bagel without having to get stitches? Teri writes that you should "Lay it flat on a work surface while pressing down with one hand to keep it steady with fingers splayed upward and out of harm's reach. Hold a sharp serrated bread knife in your other hand and slice bagel horizontally, keeping the knife parallel to the work surface." If it still sounds dangerous, stick to the pre-sliced bagels in the grocery store. 

2. Forgotten Kitchen Spills are a Hazard Zone

Sounds simple enough, but we often forget to clean up a spill if we are rushing around the kitchen--especially if pots are boiling over!  To combat this problem, she suggests keeping a stack of dish towels nearby, so you can quickly wipe up a mess. If you don't have time, she suggests covering the spill with a dish towel to remind yourself to take care of it after. 

Our solution: Spill No More Pot Covers

Don't waste time cleaning up boiled over liquids on your stove. The Spill No More Pot Cover has been formulated specifically for this problem. Keep your kitchen surfaces clean and clear of burned-on stains from hot liquids. Spill No More Pot Covers fit most pots and pans from 6" to 10" in diameter and is made of tough silicone that can withstand temperatures up to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. 

Spill No More Features:

• Fits most pots and pans from 6" to 10"
• Measures approximately 11.5" in diameter
• Dishwasher safe

3. Washing Dishes Can Result in Nicks

"Store sharp objects, like kitchen shears, steak knives and metal skewers, with the offending ends pointing downward in dishwasher utensil bins." While this sounds like common sense, I have totally forgotten to do so, and have been pierced by knifes in the dishwasher. 

4. Unstable Cutting Boards are Asking for Mistaken Cuts

To prevent cutting boards from moving, try anchoring your board to your counter with a damp paper towel or dish towel. This well help keep things steady and you are less likely to suffer an unfortunate injury. 

5. Skin Contact with Chile Peppers Can Cause Discomfort

Hopefully you have never experienced the uncomfortable sting of rubbing your eyes after cutting up a spicy pepper! Make sure you always wash hands with soap and water after cutting up Chile peppers or jalapenos.

Ten Tips to Help You Prepare for a Road Trip

The end of summer is near and the kids will be heading to school soon enough. But if you are planning one last road trip with the family here are ten tips that will help you stay safe on the road. 

1. Plan your route well in advance and obtain necessary maps, or use a GPS system for your vehicle. 

It's probably not the best idea to hop in the car without any sort of plan. Especially when you are traveling in unknown areas. If you have AAA, they offer "Trip Picks", which include maps, a travel book, and your highlighted route. If you don't have AAA, but are traveling with someone who does, you can ask them to obtain this information for you. For any long trips you plan on taking, a GPS is probably your best bet.

2. Prepare your vehicle for the trip
It is important to make sure that your vehicle is ready for the trip. Make sure you check fluid levels, change the oil, and check tire pressure. Emergency equipment such as jumper cables and flares are especially important to keep handy in the back of your vehicle.

We suggest: Mighty Jump Emergency Jump Starter:
The Mighty Jump is an emergency jump-starter that allows you to jump-start a vehicle without leaving the driver's seat. When the Mighty Jump is plugged into the dashboard cigarette lighter, it transfers power from itself to the car battery using the internal wiring of the vehicle.

Additional Features of the Mighty Jump: 

• Small enough to store almost anywhere
• No more confusing jumper cables that rely on a jump-start from an other car
• Charges car battery when adapter is plugged into a standard car cigarette lighter
• Takes only ten minutes to charge a car battery enough to start the engine.
• Multiple uses 

3. Plan carefully what  you will take with you

How many people are going with you? How much space do you have in your vehicle? These are important questions to ask yourself! You don't want to be crammed and uncomfortable throughout the duration of your trip. 

4. Plan your stops along the way:

While you can't control everything about your trip, especially unexpected restroom stops, it is a good idea to plan for food, drink, and restroom breaks. Breaks to visit certain destinations are also encouraged! Don't forget to have fun! 

5. Have a passenger confirm hotel reservations or other lodging plans as you are traveling:

Nothing is worse than arriving at a hotel and discovering a problem with your room especially if you are tired and in need of desperate sleep! It is also good to have at least one other adult passenger so if need be, they can go ahead and make hotel reservations, or navigate if you become lost. 

6. Provide people who are staying at home with your itinerary and ensure that they have your cell phone number.

God forbid something happens on the road, make sure that at least one person knows your itinerary and destination. Make sure to carry your cell phone and bring a cell phone charger that can be plugged into your car should you have an emergency. 

7. Bring a cooler with drinks and snacks, especially if you are traveling with small children. 

Save time and money by bringing a small cooler with refreshments and snacks. 

8. Clean out the vehicle each evening once you arrive at your hotel or destination. 

Take a few moments each night to clean out your car. Over the course of the day you might have accumulated snack wrappers, empty drink bottles, or fast food bags. 

9. Use your traveling time to confirm your itinerary and play games.

Play games to cure those inevitable boredom blues. 

10. Take turns driving. 

This is another reason why it is important to bring another adult with you. Long periods of driving can become tiresome! Change it up!
