Difference Between Blenders/Juice Extractors
Posted by: fluteye ()

Hi again--

What is the difference between putting all my fruits and/or vegetables in a blender and making juice that way, as opposed to using a "juice extractor"? I'm thinking of doing a juice fast for a day or so and was considering buying a juice extractor. But I do have a really good blender too.

Thanks Ahead of Time

Linda

Making juice in a Blender is not really juice
since it includes the Pulp (unless you strain it as some
do). I've heard the term 'total juice' used.....WY

I would say the difference is in the consistency.
A blender will not turn everything into total liquid.
Some pulp and chunks will remain.
But a juicer will produce total liquid,at the expense of losing some of the fiber.
