If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter, you’ve probably seen quite a few photos of green juice and fresh produce lately. Well, it’s because I’ve recently got into juicing!

Juicing has tons of health benefits and, of course, fresh juice tastes delicious, but what sparked my interest was reading that it may help relieve symptoms of Ulcerative Colitis and promote healing of the intestine while providing lots of nutrients, so I figured I had nothing to lose.

To get me started, the folks from BELLA Appliances sent me their BELLA NutriPro Juicer. I’m not going to lie, when I pulled it out of the box, I was a little intimidated. There were so many pieces!

But, after spending a few minutes with the instruction manual, I had the NutriPro Juicer all set up and ready to go.

I swear, it looks more intimidating that it actually is!

The NutriPro Juicer is super easy to use and you can toss in just about any raw fruit or vegetable. I had some fun with kale, spinach, and collard greens over the weekend.

I threw in big ol’ bunches and just pushed them down with the plastic “food pusher” that came with the juicer.

For harder produce, like beets, apples, and carrots, I cut them into smaller pieces, which also sped up the juicing process.

I’m still figuring out what combination of fruits and veggies I like best, but, right now, I’m really digging: leafy greens + cucumber + cabbage + celery + apple.

It probably looks a little crazy, but once you have everything cut up and ready to go, the juicing process is fast and, of course, totally worth it. Look at all of those pretty, nutrient-rich colors!

Before using the NutriPro Juicer, I didn’t realize there were different kinds of juice machines. Cold press juicers, like the NutriPro, compress fruits and vegetables to extract the juice while centrifugal machines use really fast, heat-generating blades to pulverize produce into juice. Cold press machines tend to produce more juice because they allow more liquid to be extracted from each fruit and vegetable. They also preserve more of the nutrients and enzymes from the produce because the machine doesn’t have blades or heat up to operate, so the cellular structure is not destroyed [source].

Ok, let’s talk about clean up. I’ve heard horror stories about trying to clean juicers and how much time it takes to pull apart everything and clean it.

First off, the removable parts of the NutriPro can go straight into the dishwasher. Simple as that! I’ve been making juice every morning, but it takes a couple of days for us to fill our dishwasher with dirty dishes, and I didn’t want to run a half-empty load, so I washed the pieces of the NutriPro by hand and timed myself to see how long it would take. Taking everything apart and washing it took me about 4 minutes. Not bad at all, right? Cleaning was my biggest concern with owning a juicer, and it really wasn’t bad at all.

You guys will definitely see a lot more fresh juice on CNC in the future. I’m a tad obsessed with this thing. I feel so healthy simply drinking fresh juice every morning, and I really hope this new habit will help get some serious nutrients into my body while my wonky colon is healing.
