My husband has been a firm
believer in the health benefits of drinking fresh fruit and vegetable smoothies
for 30 years. When I approached him
about using his methods and recipes for juicing in my blog, he asked, “Are you
telling them to use the Vitamix machine?”
To be honest, I was going to tell you to use a blender, but that did not
gain my husband’s approval and he insisted, “Vitamix is not just a blender—it will NOT be the same!” Much to my relief, I was given permission by
Vitamix to reference their product on my site, and everyone was happy! My
husband was then officially appointed to teach you and me, the correct
measurements and methods of juicing. I
can tell you from experience, the biggest trick to overcome is using the
correct ratio of liquids versus solids in achieving a desirous, smooth
consistency.
