Ignore the haters in the comments I am a long time viewer and a customer and I bought the omega vsj right before the pandemic from your website... I also own the bio chef vacuum because of your very in depth informative videos. You are appreciated..and the information and long videos you provide are life saving.
After watching many of your videos, I finally settled on the Nama J2 juicer. And I have to say it is AMAZING!! It works perfectly for our family, and my wife couldn't be happier! Thank you for your awesome information!
well stated mike, we got one a little over a year ago and couldn't be more pleased with its quietness and juicing ability. it was a very wise investment. *Happy Sabbath!!!*
So glad I come across you. You are so informative. I would rather listen to someone who has had years of experience. I'm new to juicing. So more information is ace. Don't mind how long you talk about this. Thank you.
Hey John, Just ordered the J2 using your discount code. Purchased the omega 843 two years ago...its a great juicer but this J2 looks like a game changer for those of us doing batch juicing. Thanks for your videos!
Where I am from, everybody eats mango skin. We just bite into the mangoes. Additionally, if I peel the mango for presentation purposes, I juice the skins. I just place it in the blender, add ginger add a sweetener (optional) and you have a refreshing drink.
Some people can be sensitive to the skin due to it having some chemical similar to poison ivy, or whatever, in small amounts. Which can lead to tingling, irritation, or allergic reaction in some folks. I've never had any problem with the skins, personally, though they can sometimes be slightly bitter, especially when unripe {?}...
I also save the pulp from juicing veggies and use it in my homemade soups. The pulp has so much fiber both in veggies and in fruit. I do not like wasting any food that can be reused in other ways. I dehydrate some and grind up into powder also.
Yeah.. I bought the omega 15 years ago based on John's recommendation... it is still going strong so no way I am spending $550 on a new juicer (crazy prices!!) - I spent $300 on the Omega back in the day and THAT was a lot of money... $550 - must have GOLD in it!
I love you just the way you are. Listening while preparing my salad. Thank you 😊. I like the jicama idea. Growing some jicama next year's garden in zone 7. ✨️ 💚🌿🌱🍓🌶🍋🥕🥭🍍🍐🍐💚
Great video, I wasn’t aware of the different screens! That’s my problem with the Omega Nc800. Thank you for for the chart! I will definitely print that out and use it.
Thank you so much for this video packed with great info! I didn’t even know my Nama came with a different strainer for fruits! Learned a lot, thank you!
Love your videos! Thank you… I was told that Cantalope rind should not be juiced unless you scrub it and wash it with soap as it can hold salmonella. What are your thoughts on this?

You might want to start endorsing the Vitamix countertop composter. I had to stop using my outdoor compost bin due to attracting raccoons and bought the Vitamix. (I also use their blender). The composter works great for me. I use it almost daily. I’m a juicer so have lots of peels and pulp.

I learned from you a long time ago that the way to make a great juices is to use a 80/20 or maybe a 75/25 vegetables to fruit ratio. Otherwise it’s just too much sugar and too sweet. Plus more greens equals more and faster healing to our bodies. The juice is still delicious even with much more green. And thank you very much for all the hard work you put into making your videos…💜

Hi John, Jose from Puerto Rico. I got the Nama J2 recently, and I'm enjoying it. I used to watch the Juice Man infomercials too and eventually bought one of those juicers. Then I got a stainless steel juicer from a company named Carico. It's the same concept as the Juice man juicer and I still own it and functions perfectly. But after watching your videos and researching the Nama J2, I decided to go for it, and I think is the best investment I've made. I love to watch your videos, since you have vast knowledge on the subject of juicing. I like to mix it up like you've mentioned, but the majority of what goes in is the leafy deep green vegetables and maybe one apple and some carrots.
Hi Jose. I love Puerto Rico and am in negotiations to buy property there, hopefully soon. Glad you are enjoying the Nama. It is a game changer for sure.
@@growingyourgreens Puerto Rico, John, can you say more about why you chose to look there. I've been considering Costa Rica, because I'd heard so many positive comments from people many years ago.
You rock brother! I love your content. I would ask, is there a juice that replaces taking collagen? I'm almost reaching my silver and I have found collagen great for bringing back my resilience to destruction. Getting cut or punctured.
Soluble Fiber Percentage in fruits and Veggies PDF: John - I cannot find this PDF either on your site and the link in this video doesn't work. Where can i get the chart?
I would like to watch more of your videos but don’t want to spend 34 minutes! Please consider making them shorter and more concise…getting to the point more quickly. I think you would have a lot more viewers!!! No offence- I love juicing and nutrition and I know you have a lot of valuable information but the modern busy person does not have all that time!
I have been following him for years. His vids have actually gotten shorter, if you can believe that! I think it would help if he spent time editing out what isn’t absolutely critical to his point. But I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting on that. I don’t know, maybe wash dishes or cook while you listen and watch. 🤣
The modern person isn't busy, just more distracted with a shorter attention span. Fortunately, technology compensates by allowing you to select the video playback speed. You can also press the arrow keys to skip forward by several seconds.
The goal is to up our level of health. Then since you said the Sana 727 makes a superior juice it makes sense to use the Sana juicer. Unless convenience comes before health.
On one level you are totally correct. The Sana 727 DOES make a more nutritious juice than the Nama J2 for sure. That being said, the screen gets filled with pulp after 1 quart of juice on many recipes and the 727 wont juice fruit as well. On the plus site, the Sana 727 is easier to clean. But I prefer the convivence and ease of use of the Nama J2 when I bulk juice.
Yeah... East Coast... Jicama are either rotten in the store or $3 for a tiny one... sadly not able to buy a case of Jicama for $5 like you can in LA so no juicing it here.
Hello Maria Elena 🇵🇷 Puerto Rico I never throw away the solid. I mix it with some juice. You can also use it for soups, even dry it a bit in the oven use it as substitute of corn meal and other flour products. Blessings 😍👌🏼🙋🏻🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hello John! My reason for wanting to juice, peaches, is to add peaches to plain Greek yogurt. Whenever I find fruit, flavored yogurt, they put pure cane sugar in there, that which defeats the purpose of Greek yogurt in the first place! I’m sure that you are aware of this, as we both want to be healthy. Furthermore, cane sugar in Greek yogurt destroys, the probiotic bacteria that we need. So I want to be able to have that peach flavor as well as add some sliced peach or wedged peach to my yogurt. That is all. I would not use the small feet shoot on the Nema. I would use the hopper.
I would keep the skin of those two items you list. In most cases, the skin is kept ON when juicing. Generally if the skin is edible RAW for humans, you can juice the skin. Some exceptions that come to mind are jicama, oranges and grapefruits, tangerines that should have the coloring removed but white pith kept.
nama describes the coarse screen as the "smoothie screen", which I personally disagree with calling it that. Its really a coarse hole screen, and YES, I recommend it for juicing fruits. You can also use it for juicing vegetables if you would like MORE pulp in your juice.
is there a way for you to post that chart so I can take a picture of it. I haven't decided if I'm going to go with the Kuvings or Nama J2 so I really appreciate these videos. I've learned so much!
Don't do it! Daikon contains allyl isothiocyanate, which is a derivative of glucosinolate, the component that gives horse radish it's spicy flavor. It is released when the root is grated or juiced. It's spicy and pungent, and there's really no juice recipe that will taste better with daikon unless you have very unique preferences...

In my opinion there are some rules that should be applied when making juices. 1. Do not put fruit seeds into the machine, because a seed is meant to be a plant, and if you destroy it nature will not encourage you to destroy it, you will get negative side effects. Therefore, cucumbers are not suitable for eating. Exceptions are nuts and corn that have an easily separable shell, which is the body of the fruit because it contains the fruit, then if you return the body of the fruit as fertilizer to its root then it is absorbed by the root and becomes a fruit again. 2. Do not eat spicy food, if you apply spicy food to your skin it will hurt, because spicy food is pain, not taste. It is not suitable for us to eat and there are all kinds of creatures in the intestines that spicy simply kills them and it is harmful to digestion. 4. Sour is not suitable for our nature to eat, if you let the baby taste a lemon he will be disgusted by it. Therefore, in my opinion, harif and lemon are fruits that are suitable for the earth, it is also alive and needs food to produce better quality fruits. So lemon is sprinkled on stones that are placed above the root of the tree and then when it rains the dissolved minerals that were dissolved because of the lemon, these minerals can seep into the root and nourish the soil and the tree. לדעתי יש כמה חוקים שצריך ליישם בהכנת מיצים. 1. לא להכניס זרעים של פירות למכונה, כי זרע נועד להיות צמח, ואם תהרוס אותו הטבע לא יעודד אותך להרוס, אתה תקבל תופעות לוואי שליליות. לכן מלפפונים לא מתאימים לאכילה. יוצא מן הכלל אגוזים ותירס שיש להם קליפה הניתנת להפרדה בקלות, והיא הגוף של הפרי כי היא מכילה את הפרי, ואז אם מחזירים את גוף הפרי כדשן לשורש שלו אז הוא נספג בשורש וחוזר להיות פרי מחדש. 2. לא לאכול חריף, אם תמרח חריף על העור אז יכאב לך, כי חריף זה כאב זה לא טעם. זה לא מתאים לנו לאכילה ויש במעיים כל מיני יצורים שחריף פשוט הורג אותם וזה מזיק לעיכול. 4. חמוץ לא מתאים לטבע שלנו לאכילה, אם תתן לתינוק לטעום לימון הוא יגעל מזה. לכן לדעתי חריף ולימון הם פירות שמתאימים לאדמה, גם היא חיה והיא צריכה מזון כדי להניב פירות איכותיים יותר. אז משפריצים לימון על אבנים שמונחות מעל לשורש של העץ ואז כשמגיע גשם המינרלים המומסים שהומסו בגלל הלימון, המינרלים האלו יכולים לחלחל אל השורש ולהזין את האדמה ואת העץ.
Hello Jon! Long time no hear from! I still have my Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer, because that while I juice 50% fruits and 50% cocktails, that there are times when I juice straight fruit juice, like in the mornings during Sumer time. The other time, is during the Fll, when apples are in season, although I would add some homemade sparkling water, cinnamon cloves and other spices that which would go into apple sparkling cider. The sparkling water and spices lower the sugar content in the apple and I like that sparkling texture. I don't thinkI'm ready to switch to a Namma. Hopefully I'm spelling that name right, as I no longer have eyesight enough to read how it is spelled. I forgot to mension, that when juicing fresh pineapple, I also juice oranges with the white pith on top, as oranges have a higher percentages than the pineapple. Now, I remember Jay cordich said, pineapples have two very important enzymes, Bromolaine, and Quinic acid also known as quinine. another fruit juice combination, is Grapefruit and pineapple according to Jay cordich. Also, as I listened to this particular video, is that the Namma does not have a feed chute. You basically load in the produce, put the lid on, turn on the machine and let it go to work. Can it juice whole apples, cucumbers, carrots and pears like my Kuvings whole Slow Juicer? Also, what is the best method, strategy and technique for juicing peaches? I heard somewhere, that when the peach is more ripe and soft, that the pit is just much easier to take out. I guess if it must be firm for juicing, I probably need to cut it in half, then cut around the pit. Would myKuvings whole slow work? Thank you.
Hey rick, glad you are still juicing! While you can load up the Nama J2 hopper and turn it on, it also has a smaller feed chute at top you can use to put one ingredient at at time, however this feed chute is smaller than the kuvivings and cant accept whole pieces of fruit. It can juice many whole pieces of fruit provided they fit in the hopper. For best results, I recommend precutting produce to load in the J2 so can can better fit more in the hopper. For juicing peaches: 1) look for FREESTONE peaches, some varieties the seed will EASILY detach from the fruit, they are called FREESTONE. other peaches are called CLING stone since the fruit CLINGS to the pit. In either case select the MOST HARD and FIRM peaches for juicing, and use a knife to cut off the fruit and remove the pit. I cut it like a tic-tac toe pattern looking from the top of the stem down, to cut off the pit. Put it into the juicer and enjoy! that being said, I recommend eating peaches ripe and whole or better, freeze them and the use them to make peach sorbet!
Thank you for your wealth of knowledge and transparency. I just watched your nama v hurom comparison. I am juicing for improved health and I want to do batch juicing. I plan to purchase from your website or using any codes you have. Questions/recommendations: 1. What fruit & vegetable juicer would you recommend? Nama j2? (Ideally 1 device but if they need to be 2 separate ones please share). 2. What blender would you recommend? Vitamix? 3. Can you share the link to the vacuum fruit juicing you mentioned- I didn't locate it above. I hope you can provide some clarity. Thank you
1. My favorite juicer is the Nama J2 at this time. See th-cam.com/video/9a9ZgbddIOE/w-d-xo.html 2. My favorite vacuum blender I sell currently is the dynapro see th-cam.com/video/nU0E_7LmauQ/w-d-xo.html 3. Vacuum fruit juicing: th-cam.com/video/VqRwk_dtjPA/w-d-xo.html
@discountjuicers you mention to use the coarse screen for juicing fruits, but what screen would you use if you are juicing roughly 50% fruit and 50% vegetables?
I learned recently I have an issue with oxalate where I get involved with kidney stones which is drag. I had to swear off spinach due to the oscillate. I just looked it up and apparently jicama is also high in oxalate. have you run across any hacks where where if I add a certain other vegetable fruit or yogurt etc to high oxalate items it would reduce that situation? I'm looking for a workaround where I can continue consuming those kinds of vegetables without consequence. ideas?
I encourage you to purchase fruit without waxes. Next best would be to wash it off or remove it. However edible waxes "should be edible" and juicing them is not a problem. You will get LESS edible wax if you juice an apple vs eating it whole.
Now that's a *juicy* video.. haha I will buy it, but here in Europe i cant get the Nama, but Hurom.. same manufacturer. you should work with europe too.. $$$
I have not, and it is not likely, the Nama J2 is light years ahead of the Mod Cold Press, which is an older manual-feed design that is made in China, the Nama J2 is made in the factory that makes the BEST juicers in the world in South Korea.
Hello. I have confirmed the discount code HALFFRUIT is working at namawell.com/products/nama-j2-cold-press-juicer?ref=discountjuicers for a 10% discount as I mention in this episode. Make sure you enter it with NOSPACES
the J2 can juice these items, that being said, if you juice it with jicama it will be more effective. First tip is select the MOST hard and firm berries & grapes for the best results. The softer the fruit, the more wet the pulp will be when your done. Please watch th-cam.com/video/Sbd8iHZYLBM/w-d-xo.html where I share why you should never juice berries. th-cam.com/video/Sbd8iHZYLBM/w-d-xo.html
for us here in North America it is the fall/winter. If you see it other times of the year, they are imported from the southern hemisphere where the seasons are reversed or they may be in cold storage for months, and not be as fresh.

I think you would have a lot more viewers!!! No offence- I love juicing and nutrition and I know you have a lot of valuable information but the modern busy person does not have all that time!
I have been following him for years. His vids have actually gotten shorter, if you can believe that! I think it would help if he spent time editing out what isn’t absolutely critical to his point. But I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting on that. I don’t know, maybe wash dishes or cook while you listen and watch. 🤣
The modern person isn't busy, just more distracted with a shorter attention span.
Fortunately, technology compensates by allowing you to select the video playback speed.

I love the long videos keep them up
Omg alllll of his videos he rambles
Well he did time stamp his topics, but I guess that too is too much effort to look through 😂
Should we use the coarse screen if we juice a lot of leafy greens with the fruit? (like pineapple, lemon, celery, apples and lots of kale , cilantro )
The leftover pulp will probably work well with making muffins, or even breads of some kind.
Absolutely! I used to use carrot pulp to make carrot muffins. Delicious!
could even be made into a powder for capsules
The goal is to up our level of health. Then since you said the Sana 727 makes a superior juice it makes sense to use the Sana juicer. Unless convenience comes before health.
On one level you are totally correct. The Sana 727 DOES make a more nutritious juice than the Nama J2 for sure. That being said, the screen gets filled with pulp after 1 quart of juice on many recipes and the 727 wont juice fruit as well. On the plus site, the Sana 727 is easier to clean. But I prefer the convivence and ease of use of the Nama J2 when I bulk juice.
I appreciate your content 👍👍 ty
fantastic video!
Thx bro, lookin' great, love the shirt!
John...nice video! What do you think about cutting the juice with coconut water ?
Yeah... East Coast... Jicama are either rotten in the store or $3 for a tiny one... sadly not able to buy a case of Jicama for $5 like you can in LA so no juicing it here.
I love red and green cabbage juice 😆.
Hello Maria Elena 🇵🇷 Puerto Rico
I never throw away the solid. I mix it with some juice. You can also use it for soups, even dry it a bit in the oven use it as substitute of corn meal and other flour products.
Blessings 😍👌🏼🙋🏻🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I use it as fruit cake mix too.
Thank You 😊
Hello John! My reason for wanting to juice, peaches, is to add peaches to plain Greek yogurt. Whenever I find fruit, flavored yogurt, they put pure cane sugar in there, that which defeats the purpose of Greek yogurt in the first place! I’m sure that you are aware of this, as we both want to be healthy. Furthermore, cane sugar in Greek yogurt destroys, the probiotic bacteria that we need. So I want to be able to have that peach flavor as well as add some sliced peach or wedged peach to my yogurt. That is all. I would not use the small feet shoot on the Nema. I would use the hopper.
I would keep the skin of those two items you list. In most cases, the skin is kept ON when juicing. Generally if the skin is edible RAW for humans, you can juice the skin. Some exceptions that come to mind are jicama, oranges and grapefruits, tangerines that should have the coloring removed but white pith kept.
I thought the course screen was a smoothie screen. So it's used for smoothies as well as juicing primarily fruit?
nama describes the coarse screen as the "smoothie screen", which I personally disagree with calling it that. Its really a coarse hole screen, and YES, I recommend it for juicing fruits. You can also use it for juicing vegetables if you would like MORE pulp in your juice.
is there a way for you to post that chart so I can take a picture of it. I haven't decided if I'm going to go with the Kuvings or Nama J2 so I really appreciate these videos. I've learned so much!

John can you please also do videos on water purifiers.
I love your info
good as usual John!
Has anyone ever juiced Daikon Radish? Should work similar to the Jicama
Yes radish has good texture, but can have a stronger taste :)
Don't do it! Daikon contains allyl isothiocyanate, which is a derivative of glucosinolate, the component that gives horse radish it's spicy flavor. It is released when the root is grated or juiced. It's spicy and pungent, and there's really no juice recipe that will taste better with daikon unless you have very unique preferences...
Arugula! 😋
A lot of knowledge in this video, I learned a lot
Wow great video
So much info I can’t remove it all. I’ll have to rewatch
Thank you for sharing the orange sweet pepper-orange juice 🎃‼️ Also, do you have payment plans on the juicers that’s you sell?
Hi Michelle. I do not have a payment plan, but the Nama J2 that I recommend in this video does. You may be able to buy interest-free depending on which option you select. To see the payment details order at www.bit.ly/j2juicer Use coupon code HALFFRUIT for a $55 savings and select the "Pay with AFFIRM" option to get your payment plan.
I have a Nama juicer. They stay fresh in the fridge longer.
Do you have to peel your jicama? Can you just clean & juice jicama with skin after you clean them?
I recommend peeling jicama, as it is a root veggie and the skin may be toxic like other parts of the plant.
Are the black grapes with seeds?
In my opinion there are some rules that should be applied when making juices. 1. Do not put fruit seeds into the machine, because a seed is meant to be a plant, and if you destroy it nature will not encourage you to destroy it, you will get negative side effects. Therefore, cucumbers are not suitable for eating. Exceptions are nuts and corn that have an easily separable shell, which is the body of the fruit because it contains the fruit, then if you return the body of the fruit as fertilizer to its root then it is absorbed by the root and becomes a fruit again. 2. Do not eat spicy food, if you apply spicy food to your skin it will hurt, because spicy food is pain, not taste. It is not suitable for us to eat and there are all kinds of creatures in the intestines that spicy simply kills them and it is harmful to digestion. 4. Sour is not suitable for our nature to eat, if you let the baby taste a lemon he will be disgusted by it. Therefore, in my opinion, harif and lemon are fruits that are suitable for the earth, it is also alive and needs food to produce better quality fruits. So lemon is sprinkled on stones that are placed above the root of the tree and then when it rains the dissolved minerals that were dissolved because of the lemon, these minerals can seep into the root and nourish the soil and the tree.
לדעתי יש כמה חוקים שצריך ליישם בהכנת מיצים.
1. לא להכניס זרעים של פירות למכונה, כי זרע נועד להיות צמח, ואם תהרוס אותו הטבע לא יעודד אותך להרוס, אתה תקבל תופעות לוואי שליליות. לכן מלפפונים לא מתאימים לאכילה. יוצא מן הכלל אגוזים ותירס שיש להם קליפה הניתנת להפרדה בקלות, והיא הגוף של הפרי כי היא מכילה את הפרי, ואז אם מחזירים את גוף הפרי כדשן לשורש שלו אז הוא נספג בשורש וחוזר להיות פרי מחדש.
2. לא לאכול חריף, אם תמרח חריף על העור אז יכאב לך, כי חריף זה כאב זה לא טעם. זה לא מתאים לנו לאכילה ויש במעיים כל מיני יצורים שחריף פשוט הורג אותם וזה מזיק לעיכול.
4. חמוץ לא מתאים לטבע שלנו לאכילה, אם תתן לתינוק לטעום לימון הוא יגעל מזה. לכן לדעתי חריף ולימון הם פירות שמתאימים לאדמה, גם היא חיה והיא צריכה מזון כדי להניב פירות איכותיים יותר. אז משפריצים לימון על אבנים שמונחות מעל לשורש של העץ ואז כשמגיע גשם המינרלים המומסים שהומסו בגלל הלימון, המינרלים האלו יכולים לחלחל אל השורש ולהזין את האדמה ואת העץ.
Hello Jon! Long time no hear from! I still have my Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer, because that while I juice 50% fruits and 50% cocktails, that there are times when I juice straight fruit juice, like in the mornings during Sumer time. The other time, is during the Fll, when apples are in season, although I would add some homemade sparkling water, cinnamon cloves and other spices that which would go into apple sparkling cider. The sparkling water and spices lower the sugar content in the apple and I like that sparkling texture. I don't thinkI'm ready to switch to a Namma. Hopefully I'm spelling that name right, as I no longer have eyesight enough to read how it is spelled. I forgot to mension, that when juicing fresh pineapple, I also juice oranges with the white pith on top, as oranges have a higher percentages than the pineapple. Now, I remember Jay cordich said, pineapples have two very important enzymes, Bromolaine, and Quinic acid also known as quinine. another fruit juice combination, is Grapefruit and pineapple according to Jay cordich. Also, as I listened to this particular video, is that the Namma does not have a feed chute. You basically load in the produce, put the lid on, turn on the machine and let it go to work. Can it juice whole apples, cucumbers, carrots and pears like my Kuvings whole Slow Juicer? Also, what is the best method, strategy and technique for juicing peaches? I heard somewhere, that when the peach is more ripe and soft, that the pit is just much easier to take out. I guess if it must be firm for juicing, I probably need to cut it in half, then cut around the pit. Would myKuvings whole slow work? Thank you.
Hey rick, glad you are still juicing! While you can load up the Nama J2 hopper and turn it on, it also has a smaller feed chute at top you can use to put one ingredient at at time, however this feed chute is smaller than the kuvivings and cant accept whole pieces of fruit. It can juice many whole pieces of fruit provided they fit in the hopper. For best results, I recommend precutting produce to load in the J2 so can can better fit more in the hopper. For juicing peaches: 1) look for FREESTONE peaches, some varieties the seed will EASILY detach from the fruit, they are called FREESTONE. other peaches are called CLING stone since the fruit CLINGS to the pit. In either case select the MOST HARD and FIRM peaches for juicing, and use a knife to cut off the fruit and remove the pit. I cut it like a tic-tac toe pattern looking from the top of the stem down, to cut off the pit. Put it into the juicer and enjoy! that being said, I recommend eating peaches ripe and whole or better, freeze them and the use them to make peach sorbet!
Can i juice the skin of pomegranate, pineapple, pumpkin, cantaloupe and honeydew melon?
Looking for the soluble fiber list? its here discountjuicers.com/solublefiberinproduce.pdf
Thank you for your wealth of knowledge and transparency. I just watched your nama v hurom comparison. I am juicing for improved health and I want to do batch juicing. I plan to purchase from your website or using any codes you have.
Questions/recommendations:
1. What fruit & vegetable juicer would you recommend? Nama j2? (Ideally 1 device but if they need to be 2 separate ones please share).
2. What blender would you recommend? Vitamix?
3. Can you share the link to the vacuum fruit juicing you mentioned- I didn't locate it above.
I hope you can provide some clarity. Thank you
1. My favorite juicer is the Nama J2 at this time. See th-cam.com/video/9a9ZgbddIOE/w-d-xo.html
2. My favorite vacuum blender I sell currently is the dynapro see th-cam.com/video/nU0E_7LmauQ/w-d-xo.html
3. Vacuum fruit juicing: th-cam.com/video/VqRwk_dtjPA/w-d-xo.html
You should write a book on juicing people will buy it
Will you share your list with us? Or tell us where the best place to get good info?
What about pesticides: roundup: herbicides ?
When drinking fruit juice only, would it be more beneficial or less likely to yield a sugar high, to simply sip it slowly over a long period of time?
That could be helpful too, but more helpful is to mix with 50% veggies as my last tip states.
Thank you! Do you use the coarse filter for juicing greens also?
I personally don''t, but you could if you wanted more insoluble fiber in the juice.
@discountjuicers you mention to use the coarse screen for juicing fruits, but what screen would you use if you are juicing roughly 50% fruit and 50% vegetables?
@discountjuicers should I use the fine or coarse strainer for leafy greens with added other fruit and vegetables?
Thanks
I personally use the fine screen, but TRY the coarse screen and see which one YOU prefer.
I learned recently I have an issue with oxalate where I get involved with kidney stones which is drag.
I had to swear off spinach due to the oscillate. I just looked it up and apparently jicama is also high in oxalate.
have you run across any hacks where where if I add a certain other vegetable fruit or yogurt etc to high oxalate items it would reduce that situation?
I'm looking for a workaround where I can continue consuming those kinds of vegetables without consequence. ideas?
With juicing whole fruits with the skin, any concerns about edible wax used to keep fruits fresh?
I encourage you to purchase fruit without waxes. Next best would be to wash it off or remove it. However edible waxes "should be edible" and juicing them is not a problem. You will get LESS edible wax if you juice an apple vs eating it whole.
Now that's a *juicy* video.. haha
I will buy it, but here in Europe i cant get the Nama, but Hurom.. same manufacturer. you should work with europe too.. $$$
Is it safe to juice the skin , cnsidering pesticides? Tx
Have you ever done a Comparison with the Nama J2 and the Mod Cold Press?
I have not, and it is not likely, the Nama J2 is light years ahead of the Mod Cold Press, which is an older manual-feed design that is made in China, the Nama J2 is made in the factory that makes the BEST juicers in the world in South Korea.
Hi John, discount code not working anymore. Do you have new code? I will be buying one for myself. Thank you the informative health matters.
Hello. I have confirmed the discount code HALFFRUIT is working at namawell.com/products/nama-j2-cold-press-juicer?ref=discountjuicers for a 10% discount as I mention in this episode. Make sure you enter it with NOSPACES
Where could I get his chart?
Where is the list?
Is the Nama j2 good for grapes and strawberries
the J2 can juice these items, that being said, if you juice it with jicama it will be more effective. First tip is select the MOST hard and firm berries & grapes for the best results. The softer the fruit, the more wet the pulp will be when your done. Please watch th-cam.com/video/Sbd8iHZYLBM/w-d-xo.html where I share why you should never juice berries.
th-cam.com/video/Sbd8iHZYLBM/w-d-xo.html
I’m confused should you or shouldn’t you juice a pineapple
I strive to NOT juice pineapple, as it has a low soluble fiber content. However, I still do juice it when its on sale :)
When in pomegranate season?
for us here in North America it is the fall/winter. If you see it other times of the year, they are imported from the southern hemisphere where the seasons are reversed or they may be in cold storage for months, and not be as fresh.
What about lemon ginger blast. Juicing fruit!
Thanks for your educational videos, but can you pls post you soluble fiber list
