Most of us have tried to walk, and sometimes run, down The Road To Better Health without much success. There are a lot of potholes, curves and detours as you go down that road and that makes it very difficult to stay the course. However, the rewards can be great if you are able to stay the course for the duration.
To achieve better health you have to change your eating habits and that requires commitment to a change in your life style. And if you don't make that commitment you will see your weight, and your health, go up and down continually. However, that change in life style can be made easier with the proper tools.
If you are really serious about achieving better health through proper diet the first thing you should do is build a healthy eating home center. What does a healthy eating home center consist of? The right small appliances that will assist you in making food that is significantly better for your health.
The first small appliance you should put in your healthy eating home center is a quality juicer. There are basically three different types of juicers on the market today, centrifugal, single gear and twin gear juicers. I would recommend that you make your first addition to your healthy eating home center a twin gear juicer. Twin gear juicers operate at low RPMs which helps maintain the nutritional benefits of the juice and they are very versatile.
Before we discuss some of the foods that can be prepared with your new twin gear juicer lets look at some of the benefits of juicing.
Freshly juiced vegetables and fruits give your body an instant boost of nutrients, enzymes, vitamins and minerals in a form that your body can easily assimilate, absorb and digest. Studies show that the nutrients from juiced vegetables and fruits are absorbed into our bloodstream within 30 minutes of consumption.
At the most basic level, juicing allows you to add many more vegetables and fruits to your daily diet, and to increase the amount of raw food you consume giving your body energy and boosting both the body's immune system and cleansing process. Juicing is one of the easiest and fastest ways to start on the road to better healthy.
Now lets look at just a few of the things you can make with your new juicer. A good, versatile twin gear juicer will not only make great tasting and nutritious juices it will also mince and grind coffee beans, seeds and seasonings. It can also double as a pasta maker that will make fresh home made pastas without the preservatives you find in pastas you buy at the grocery store. You can also make fresh, frozen fruit sorbet to replace the fattening deserts that kill any diet.
In addition, you will be able to make juice from wheatgrass with a good twin gear juicer. Wheatgrass juice is a whole food with no toxic side effects. It is full of vitamins and minerals and it is a natural appetite suppressant that will help you control your appetite for proper diet and weight control.
If you have a newborn or infant child that is still eating baby food you will be happy to hear that your new twin gear juicer will also make fresh, preservative free baby foods. As good as the manufacturers claim processed baby foods to be there is no substitute for fresh, home made baby foods. Feeding your baby fresh made baby food is a good way to start your baby's eating habits on the right path.
As you can see the benefits of a twin gear juicer are many. As the first investment in your healthy eating home center your new juicer will serve you well for many years to come.
