What’s your Juicing strategy ?

[Anonymous]

I need to start using juicer I bought. I find it difficult to get a routine going. What strategies do you use? I’ve heard of juicing in bulk and freezing jars and thaw as needed throughout the week. Are the nutritional benefits reduced if you’re freezing?

I just use my teeth for on-demand juicing.

There is no nutritional benefit to juicing. You're extracting and removing the most healthy thing - the pulp or fiber.

Make a smoothie, or eat whole fruits and vegetables.

It’s to press the fruit against the roof of my mouth to squeeze the juice out and then swallow it.

Put your juicer on freebie or neverbuy or whatever those groups are. Who buys a juicer in 2024?

No to.

I buy and consume only cold pressed organic juice.

I don’t have a juicer but if I were to get one, I’d squeeze orange or grapefruit on demand. No freezing or “strategy” needed.

I used to fill 10-12 500ml Mason jars at once. 4 jars of apple pear ginger juice, then the rest in a greens juice. I just stored it in the fridge and didnt worry about it too much.

Cleaning the juicer (especially the strainer grate) was such a pain which is the main reason I did bulk.

Regardless of the debate on the health benefits or not, you're going to get annoyed having to clean that thing. The better machines tell you to hand wash the parts, so that alone will turn you off to the prospects of making juice, even in bulk.

When I was drinking celery juice, I loathed cleaning that mesh funnel w/ a brush every day.

Why do you need to juice?

Years ago, a nutritionist told me to start juicing for all the supposed health benefits but never thought to remind [stupid] me that you have to cut other calories. I was always hungry, so juiced and ate my regular, decently healthy diet. Talk about fast weight gain!

This is the kind of thing that makes me hesitant to see a nutritionist. Not only did she not remind you of the extra calories, she recommended what was essentially a fad.
