When I began juicing, it wasn't because I was sick, overweight, or that I'd watched the amazing documentary Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead. Though that documentary is great, it has been known to give people an insane urge to get a juicer, and get it now! My brother HAD watched that documentary, and he went out to get a Breville Juicer immediately, along with a hundred dollars worth of fresh produce. So started his journey. In a matter of days he was calling the whole family and touting the benefits of his new fresh juice routine. He decided to start a 10-day juice fast. I didn't think he'd make it, but he did! He said he had more energy than he'd ever had, and he felt great! So started my journey.
I borrowed his juicer and decided to give it a try myself. Now I'm not a big vegetable fan, not really a fruit fan either. I'm more of a meat and potatoes type of person. My brother told me to be sure and add a bit lemon to the juice I made. I threw in a lemon and an apple, and it turned my juice into a slightly sweet refreshing drink. I was pleasantly surprised. The juice wasn't nearly as distasteful as I'd thought it would be, so I kept juicing.
I immediately noticed a difference, and my energy level was definitely way up. I thought it was possible it was all in my mind. My brother said he had more energy, so I'd expected to have more energy. But I also noticed my skin was glowing with health and vitality, or it could have been the carrot juice making me a bit orange. Still, I felt my skin looked and felt smoother and healthier. I also noticed my nails were growing at a much faster rate, which meant more trimming. Yet another sign of great health. And here's a little something special I'm sure you're all dying to know, my bowels were functioning great! I had been prone to a bit of constipation, but once I started juicing, I was right as rain!
I've continued juicing since, and yup, with my brother's juicer. After I threw a kicking, screaming fit when he requested it back, we agreed I could keep it. Bless his heart! Actually, I loved the juicer so much, he let me have it as an early Christmas gift. He bought another Breville juicer. I continued juicing, not every day but several times a week. I noticed I felt strong, my hair grew fast, my nails continued to grow fast, my skin looked great, my stomach wasn't giving me problems, my seasonal allergies got ten times better, I lost weight (not that I needed to, I just did), and I rarely got a cold anymore. I was pretty much on the verge of superhero status!
I highly recommend you start juicing. It's greatly improved my life and my health. There is no substitute for the nutrient rich drink. You will feel better and look better. Oh, and if you haven't watched Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead, you should watch that too! So if you're on the fence, get off of it and start juicing already! Forget super foods, go with super juice!
I'm just a regular person that got into juicing by chance. I've been in the market for getting a new juicer recently and have been really researching the juicers on the market. I've decided to share all my research about them as well. If you're looking to buy a juicer, or researching reviews, come see what I've found,Juicers Reviews. Not every juicer is created the same, that's for sure! As you could probably tell, I love my Breville juicer. If you'd rather just check out some of their reviews go to Breville Juicer Reviews.
