Some people have seen the commercials on television advertising the benefits of juicing. One can buy a blender or food processor and fill it with fruits and vegetables and with the press of a button have their daily recommended intake of fruits and vegetables conveniently in a smoothie-type concoction. Juicing can be an excellent way to get one's daily vitamins.

If you are planning on juicing citrus fruits only, or primarily citrus fruits, consider purchasing a juicer that is designed just for citrus. Many juicers have trouble with the amount of pith in a citrus fruit. In addition, juicers with metal surfaces will become corroded over time after repeated exposure to citrus fruits.

Buy a juicer made of high quality. This is important if you plan to use your juicer regularly. A good juicer will make as much juice as you want, be easy to maintain and clean, and last a long time. Don't try to skimp on price or you might end up buying more juicers than you want to; bad juicers just don't stand the test of time.

Keep a fresh stock of cut and washed fruits and vegetables on hand at all times. If you have to run to the store every time you want to make juice, you'll never use that juicer. By having the fruits and vegetables on hand and ready to use, you will make juicing quick and convenient.

If you don't want to drink vegetables, don't. Juicing doesn't have to freak you out every time you throw something into the machine! Start with things you know you don't mind drinking, like oranges and apples or even carrots. The money saved and knowledge of what really is in your drink is what makes juicing so awesome!

Before you invest in a juicer, you should do your research. Check out buying guides online, as well as customer reviews, to choose which juicer will fit your needs, while being well respected by those who have already purchased one. A juicer is a big investment, so don't jump into it without knowing what you're doing!

Buy a juicer that does NOT heat up any parts near the items being juiced. The heat can cause the juice to begin oxidation, leading to a breakdown of the nutrients in it. Choose a juicer that says specifically that the parts touching the juice will remain cool throughout the juicing process.

Buying a masticating juicer will allow the juice you make to have it's nutrients break down much slower, meaning you can take your time in drinking it or even store it for a while. It will also leave as much of the natural nutrients intact as possible, giving you the most healthy juice to drink.

Juicing may not be for everyone but it is not a difficult hobby to become a part of. With one simple purchase of a blender or a food processor, anyone can become a juicing expert. The health benefits and the convenience of being able to juice any foods you want don't require anything except the willingness to push a button on a food processor.
