Guest guest Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 I use both the Vita Mix and a Juicer. In order to get the true benefits of juicing you really can't use the Vita Mix, as it does not get rid of the pulp. You end up with a nasty drink if you try. The Vita Mix will provide liquefy like juice but you will have to add lots of water, and another juice, (frozen apple etc) for flavor. You also can't liquefy the amount of vegetables that most folks who juice use. I would suggest that you rent a juicer if that is what you are thinking about. Otherwise the Vita Mix is a very versatile piece of equipment that is wonderful for everyday kitchen use. Pat Nancy [nll320] Saturday, January 31, 2004 12:49 AM New to whole food juicing I saw a Vita Mix demo at Costco and I liked th drink that he made. I have seen a few other demos such as this and liked the drink each time. I don't think it is actually considered juicing as I want the whole fruit or vegetable to drink. Vita Mix is calling it the whole food meal even though it is a thick drink. I am trying to research this but not getting much information. The Vita Mix appliance looks like a well built high powered blender. My next question is do you know where I can find a book or a website that teaches about whole food juicing and has recipes? Anyway, the next question is the the gentleman put either a whey or soy powder in the mix. I have emailed Vita Mix but have not received a response. I was hoping someone has seen these demos and possibly knows what the powder was. I really appreciate your time in helping me. Thank you.
