Gadgets for wellness : Juice extractor

By -
Hello all
After my carrot and orange juice post,  I thought it would make sense to actually have a juicer instead of having to sieve out the juice everytime I wanted to make some. So on one of my out and about trips,  I saw this Saisho juice extractor at foodco supermarket, idi  ishin Jericho,  Ibadan.

This is a good gadget to have in your kitchen!  I'm a smoothie believer but once in a while I just want some juice.  A juicer makes that much easier.
The advantages of making your own juice over packaged juice include:
1. You know exactly what you are drinking.  Packaged juice can contain among other things, added sugar and chemical preservatives.
2. You know the quantity of fruits you are consuming.  Fruits contain calories and sugar too.  So you can not have juice in unlimited quantity. Making your own juice let's you know how much you are consuming.
3. Your juice is fresh!

I actually saw two of them,  this one and the other,  a Phillips model.  I chose this one based on price.  It cost a tithe of the other. Yep the Phillips was about N68k. The ijebu in me kicked in.
So far,  I've used it with apple and watermelon and I'm loving it.

So if you have some 6-7k, you can go get one for yourself.

Have a wonderful week ahead.

Today,  we are examining the many benefits of carrots. The yummy, crunchy, juicy , orange (though it can be other colours) root vegetable that is common in Nigeria during dry season. Carrots can be juiced alone or in smoothies,  eaten alone or with a dip (e.g peanut butter)  as a snack,  can be used in soups and sauces, salads and as a garnish in rice and pasta dishes. Garnishing with carrots  But that's not all about carrots. They are an excellent source of beta carotene and fiber not forgetting Vit A, C,  K, B8, pantothenic acid,  dilate,  potass...

Get rid of acne naturally and fast!

Hi!! It is such a beautiful day and the day is too beautiful to not to love your skin! Your skin is the largest organ of the your body. You like your skin. Your skin likes you. It protects you from the elements that can harm you and it keeps you together (imagine what you'd look like without the skin...  Ewww right?) . So you should do your best to protect it from any kind of damage. Let's paint a typical scenario : One morning you wake up to see acne breakouts on your face (oops!) and you suddenly hate your skin. You turn to harsh chemicals, and expensive scrubs. Isn't that is a very terrible way to reward a friend who’s been there for you since day one? Your epidermis isn’t at fault here-it can’t help that your hormones are causing all that extra sebum to block up your pores, or the fact that bacteria is running rampant. If your skin could talk it would say why are you punishing me for a crime I didn't commit... That’s just a guess anyways. The point is, na...
