Somehow i feel a big jolt after drinking a glass of juice.

Sugar jolt? That's why I had to back way off on juices. Now I'm doing vegetable only.

I too prefer vegetables only.
I was on vacation at the beach a number of years ago. While there I bought a very nice bicycle because it was a great deal (and my wife loved it because she's an artist and it was one of her favorite colors which somehow negated the price tag).
Anyway, there was a great highway to ride on with just about no traffic. Going north from where we were staying there was a very very strong and consistent headwind so the first half of the ride was quite challenging. Working hard I could pass the joggers but not make them look like they were standing still. It was a strong wind every time.
At the turn around point there was a fresh juice stand. I was ready for it and would order a double shot of wheat grass juice, drink it, and head home (with a wonderful tailwind so I could go a million miles an hour with little effort).
Talk about a jolt! I could feel that magic wheat grass juice replenishing me and doing its thing throughout my body.
It's not just the sugar.
Happy shaves,
Jim

Juicing removes the insoluble fiber and leaves the soluble fiber.
We're just juicing veggies with an occasional apple...a carrot from time to time.

I'm using the Magic Bullet most nights now. It all stays in there!

I have a juicer (centrifugal). Haven't used it in a while. A while ago I transitioned to making vegetable/fruit "smoothies" in my Vitamix. Maybe there's nothing to it but I like drinking the foods "whole", skins and all. Plus I find the clean up way easier than the juicer.

We use the Vitamix a lot. Smoothies are great. Also frozen fruit sorbets.

Mine is in use most days. One of those appliances that on the surface is just a really expensive blender. But is does so much and gets so much use (by me anyway) that it was a great investment. Mine's fairly new, going on 10 years now.

We juiced bloody Mary's this morning...very healthy.
i used to use my vitamix in conjunction with the omega vrt. a great match together, a bit easier and quicker for volume and cleanup.

Fumbling about.
What was your process with the two?
i would process the veg/fruit into a slurry in the vitamix and then run the slurry through the omega vrt.
i had a thread here at b&b that chronicled the process. been a while though, maybe 5 years ago.
