To juice or to blend? That is the question! Janet & Greta deliver all the juicy details about green smoothies and green juices in this short, fun episode.
Just wanted to say you guys rock, so happy to have found you here on RU-vid. Been a fan since before I was cooking. My Mom and I watched you guys all the time. lmao at the biological sister jokes.
I made a batch of muffins using the pulp from my carrot juice. The batter was drier and thicker which makes sense since the shreds have been juiced! The muffins were great (Morning Gloryous from TLC) but I think I would add a bit of extra liquid to the batter next time to make it a little easier to work with.
While this video was cute, it missed at least one major point. A glass of smoothie and a glass of juice are not the same thing at all. The smoothie has water plus tons of fiber. It doesnt have anywhere near the nutrients of the same volume of pure juice. Blending is more like a meal since you will have to consume several glasses for the same amount of produce. Juicing is like having a drink instead of a meal.
Juicing gives you more then blending. It goes right to your blood compared to blending. I blend smoothie once a day for fiber. But i juice twice a day.
Juicing is better for you. If you are sick or want to be as healthy as you can be, juice. It let's your body recover and rest and doesn't have to work to break down food. Blending, while better then eating McDonalds, your body still has to break down a lot of stuff putting more strain on your system. It's that simple.
Great video. I have not been juicing because it just seems to waste so much of the fruit and vegetables, where as blending you drink everything. Any suggestions how to use up all the left overs of juicing.
Wow I haave to send a super like through RU-vid. It really explained that blending is as important as juicing. And juicing is less filling than blending but oops this isn't true . The blending was filling because it had more ingredients.
Thank you for the fun Vid Ladies, I have the OMEGA Juicer + Te Nutribullet it seems the Bullet blender is in my DNA also it has been 2 years since I use the OMEGA :( Of Course both of them are the best healthy alternatives:)
