Yesterday, we ended our Juice Feast….nothing but fresh fruit and veggie juice, water, and herbal tea. Today, we are keeping the course with high volumes of produce but supplementing the juicing with salads and some nuts, seeds, and beans. We decided to tweak our food in that way while our bodies adjusted to the amount of detoxing we were doing. The Juice Feast itself left both of us feeling emotionally healthy, quite a bit lighter, and eager to improve our normal eating habits.
To cement our commitment to juicing, we upgraded the $25 Juiceman Juicer we found at a church rummage sale to a Hurom Juicer. Holy Moly! It is a beast…. a JuiceBeast! It is still in the box though….because we are contemplating returning it for an Omega Juicer. The body of the juicers is basically the same and come from the same manufacture, but the Omega comes with an extra screen good for juicing softer fruits and with 9 additional years of warrantee for the most fragile parts. So many advantages and disadvantages to weigh out when buying something as diverse as a juicer, it can be easy to miss something like that.
We’ll let you know what we decide.
