Getting Healthy With Wheatgrass Juicers
Wheatgrass is known as a miracle product among the health enthusiasts. This vitamin and mineral enriched product is a great way to ensure your daily intake of these vital ingredients. Many health conscious people purchase this wheatgrass kits whereby they grow this wonder product at their homes. While wheatgrass is a vital source of these nutrients, the leafy vegetable can only be consumed as a health drink.
This means that any health conscious person must invest in a wheat grass juicer at home whereby he can extract the juice and either consume it directly or added to other smoothies.
Wheatgrass juice extraction requires a special type of juicer as ordinary juicers are no help when it come to this miracle drink. The leafy plant can only be crushed properly in a specially designed wheatgrass juicer as the leaves need to be properly masticated to release the powerful liquid. Moreover normal juicers are not capable of extracting its juice. When you are ready for your health drink just get a cluster of leaves in your hand and put them through the wheatgrass juicer and your potent health drink is ready.
Wheatgrass juicers are available in two brands - electric models and manual operated ones. Manual wheatgrass juicers are compact and lightweight and can be carried around easily. In manual wheat juicers you put in a handful of plant in the fill cup and turn the handle which will spur the masticating device to crush the leaves and extract the juice. These juicers must however include a suction base that can ensure support and stability as you work on the machine. You can get up to one ounce of juice with one minute’s operation of the machine. These juicers also prove easy to clean.
With electric juicers you get around double the quantity of wheatgrass juice in the same time frame that it takes to operate a manual one. They are also bulkier than manual operated ones making it difficult to transport them easily. Twin gear electric juicers can also crush nuts and fruits and other vegetables along with wheatgrass. Just remember to avoid the ones that operate with centrifugal force as they will oxidize the leaves and chop them fine instead of crushing them. They are not suited for wheatgrass but instead settle for either single gear juicers which can only be used for wheatgrass or twin gear juicer though twin gear juicers will cost a little more. Ultimately your choice should be based on your overall use and requirement and the various other juicing requirements that you may have.
