Juicing for Health
Choosing a Juicer
For Optimal Health & Wellness
Namawell (or Nama) brand juicers are what I personally use, recommend, and frankly like the best. Here's why...
As the Juice Lady and best-selling author of many books on juicing, people often ask me what juicer I recommend. Â How do they choose among all the models on the market? Â Having tried almost every juicer made, I have my favorites. Â But I always interview people to find out about their needs.
Here are some of the questions I ask:
What do you want in a juicer?
What is your lifestyle–are you busy or do you have more time to spend juicing?
Is juicing a casual thing or part of your daily routine?
Do you want to be able to juice wheatgrass?
To gain the greatest benefits of juicing, choose a juicer that is right for you. It can make the difference between juicing daily and never juicing again.
Should I get a juicer that keeps all the fiber in the juice?
If you think it might be a good idea to have carrot, beet, parsley, or celery pulp in your juice for added fiber, I can tell you from experience that it tastes like juicy sawdust. For the most flavorful juice, which is juice you’ll drink every day, I recommend using a true juicer—not a high-powered blender. However, high-powered blenders are great for many other recipes such as smoothies, cold soups, and raw food dishes.
A Juicer IS NOT a blender.
I need to distinguish between a blender and a juicer. A juicer separates the liquid from the pulp (insoluble fiber). A blender liquefies everything that is placed in it; it doesn’t separate the pulp from the juice.
Be Sure to Check Out My Favorite Juicer, the Nama J2!
No matter what you answered to these questions, the Nama J2 juicer is going to be your best choice. If you have a very limited budget and need to stick to something under $100, give the Hamilton Beach juicer a try.
