Best Juicers 2012

Are you looking for a reliable, durable juicer which make extracting juice from fruits and vegetables simple, clean and easy?

Most of us North Americans do not consume nearly enough fresh fruit and vegetable servings each day according to most nutritional guidelines.

Enjoying a delicious fresh fruit, vegetable or combination of juices helps most of us to meet minimum fruit//veg intake requirements. Fresh juices also help kids who dislike eating vegetables to hit their nutritional goals.

There are two major types of juicers: Citrus Juicers and Juice Extractors The citrus juicer processes cut halves of fruit on a motorized reamer that removes the juice. A channel around the reamer, depending on the brand and type, might also strain the juice as it flows into the receptacle.

These units are simpler and easier to clean when compared with the juice extractor. They have fewer parts and will not accumulate pulp in nooks and crannies which can make it hard to clean. Now this type of juicer is limited in usability but if you just want a fresh OJ in the morning a citrus juicer may just be all you need.

Personally I prefer the more powerful juice extractors which will allow you to explore more interesting recipes and often process larger pieces of fruit and vegetables processing skins, husks, cores and seeds with ease. This type of juicer uses a powerful spinning disk to reduce fruit or vegetables into small pieces that are then spun to separate the juice from pulp.

I like to start my day with a healthy combination of apple, celery and carrot juice which has also helped me cut down on my morning coffee intake which was getting out of hand. I hope the information provided here helps you find the right juicer for your family.
