Midday Melon Juice

Here is a special melon juice recipe from Jason Vale that is packed with vitamin A and C, betacarotene,, phyto-chemicals, folic acid, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium! It will help you stay hydrated and it just simply tastes amazing!

What you will need:
- 1/2 watermelon (small)
- 1/4 lemon
- 2 pomegranates
- 100g raspberries

I personally prefer to juice everything apart from the raspberries and as the final step put the juice and the berries in the blender/fruit processor. It will make it thicker and you will be able to get more out of the raspberries. However this comes down to personal preference on how you prefer to enjoy your melon juice!

The above recipes is from Jason Vale's (Juice Master) book Turbo Charge Your Life in 14 Days !

Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Pro 67650

This is a review of the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Pro 67650.

At only the cost of approximately $70 this is a great juicer to even suit a lower budget!

It has quite a high horsepower of 1.1hp and comes with a one year warranty.

One of the downsides is that the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Pro 67650 generally has a higher wastage especially when you are juicing softer fruits or softer vegetables. However don't let this one fact put you off. As mentioned previously it is important to consider how often you will be using it and also what you would like to juice in the long run.

It is easy to assemble out of the box and easy to operate. Parts are dishwasher safe to enable easier cleaning.

Plus you can also fit whole fruits into the chute!

This juicer scored 4.5 stars of out 5 from customers that bought it on Amazon which shows that a lot of people were happy with their purchase.

Definitely great value for money the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Pro 67650.

Headache Remedy Juice

I make this juice every now and then when I get a headache and it can have quite an impact depending on the cause of your headache.

What you will need:
- 2 cabbage leaves
- 1 cup chopped broccoli pieces
- 1 whole apple
- 1 big carrot

Be warned this is not necessarily one of the best tasting juices, but it can be a great headache remedy juice.

Another thing that can help is if you take magnesium tablets which then acts as a pain reliever (4-6 tablets daily when you have a headache).

However always ensure that you are not allergic to any of the things mentioned and if you are in doubt check with you health care professional.

I hope the above headache remedy juice will also help you.

Breville BJE510XL

Today I am going to review the Breville BJE510XL juicer. Essentially it is a five speed juicer which speed ranges from 6500rpm for softer fruits and greens to 12500rpm for denser foods such as carrots. It comes in a stainless steel housing with a stainless-steel micromesh filter and cutters, engineering-grade polymers and a backlit control panel. Plus the parts are dishwasher safe which makes it a whole lot easier to clean. Generally I find that the cleaning is the part that can put people off from juicing, however this is something that Breville has made easier with this juicer. The 3 inch feed tube makes it easy to juice whole fruits and vegetables and therefore requires less preparation before you start the actual juicing process. It also comes with a brush to help with cleaning.

The Breville BJE510XL can make a 8 ounces glass of juice in about 5 seconds. This juicer has 900 watts power and carries a one year warranty.

The Breville BJE510XL was nominated for the Australian International Design Award and carries a 4.5 star rating (out of 5) reviewed by Amazon customers that have bought the juicer, which speaks for itself.

Please look at the video from YouTube above to get a better feel for this amazing juicer!
