Juicing for good health

My better half has been wanting to try this juice ever since he read about the benefit of this juice a year ago, it is said to be good to unclog the arteries..it is hard to tell the conditions of our arteries in our body after all these years..we made a point to try this juice yesterday.  The ingredients are easy to find, I got them all in the supermarket on my way home.

We read about the benefit a year ago and did not keep any written information, therefore, there is no exact measurements of each ingredients we can follow, we take the liberty to estimate how much of each ingredient we need so long as all the main ingredients are in.

What we need are : Garlic, Ginger, Lemon, Honey and Apple Cider Vinegar (we opted out ACV).

 my dear Alpha juicer have been in the box for months...it is now out for this purpose

 

The unclogging arteries "yellow juice" is ready to be boiled.

Add in honey after it is cooled.  Keep refrigerated.  Enjoy this healthy juice 1 - 2 table spoons each day.  I have ready a youtube videos here for you to check out how it is done.  Hope this juice will provide us with much needed health benefits.

Versatile Juicer / Juicer Extractor

After completing my 7 days Detox and Rejuvenation Program last week, the one thing that I miss so much from the program is drinking juices.

Lately, my juicer has become the most regularly used kitchen electrical appliance. Besides me craving for juices, one more reason why I make juices is for my girls, they dislike taking fruits, reject vegetable altogether in their meals. The only way to provide the nutrients that they missed out from fruits and vegetable is to feed them freshly extracted juices. Pearl will only go for cold sweet red apple juice, anything additional is a NO from her. While Crystal is more flexible, she doesn't mind having celery, carrot, tomatoes in her juices, so long as it is slightly cold and sweet.

Recently I tried juicing green papaya (half ripened). Both Clet and I like it, I am not ready to give it to the kids yet. The papaya juice not only taste nice but smell nice too. I was once told by the tuition teacher that there are a lot of health benefits by taking unripened papaya, best with the skin but I prefer to peel the skin off.

Versatile Juicer & Food Processor

I always wanted to own a unit of Alpha DA-900 juicer & food processor for my kitchen. I finally bought it this month, thanks to the company that I work for offers easy payment scheme for staff.

It comes with a VCD which I showed it the night I got the juicer. After watching the VCD, my daughters begging me to buy it, I did not tell them that it is already in the kitchen. They were thrilled when they saw the machine can actually make noodles, slicing potatos, and make juices, to them it would be a good toy to play.

This Korean made juicer is more than an ordinary juicer that I used to have. It is more than 9 machine in 1!

1. Fruit & Vegetable Juice Extractor;
2. Wheatgrass/Leafy Green Juice Extractor;
3. Soya Bean, Almond & other Nut Milk Extractor;
4. Mincer;
5. Grinder;
6. Pasta Maker;
7. Food Mill;
8. Grain Mill; and
9. Ice shaver/Vetable Slicer.

It is also the first juice extractor equipped with a "Mill-type Bio Auger" gear, which functions exactly like a stonemill. It preserves the oringinal flavour, nutrients and living enzymes found in fruits and vegetables. It is just what we need for my DRP "Detox & Rejuvenation Programme" that I will be taking tomorrow for 7 days.

There is no sharp blade in this juicer so I let my daughters took charge of the juicing which they enjoyed very much. They are also eager to try the juices that they extracted, easier to get them to drink juices now.
