    Default Juicer question....new here *first post*

    Hello everyone!

    I just started going raw about a week and a half ago. I was checking out juicers at Costco and the only one they sell there is a Jack Lalanne one. I know the best of the best is Green Star, but I just don't have that kind of money laying around. How much of a nutrient loss am I suffering by using the Jack LaLanne one instead?

    Thanks in advance.

    You'll be fine with that juicer you just won't get quite as much juice but you are worried about getting all the nutrients then you could eat the whole fruit as it is or make smoothies rather than juices.

    If that's what you can afford to buy I say go for it. The pulp will be wet but all you have to do is feed it back thru a time or two to extract more juice.

    How about Brevilles? are they okay? I'm hearing a lot of hype about them.

    I picked up a Breville juicer (my first) and am very happy with it. I did my research and read reviews on Amazon, etc., before purchasing and haven't had any issues with it yet. VERY easy to clean, and haven't a single problem with it yet.
