H.e.ll.o my friends!  I had my good friend Raj Lahoti of DMV.ORG (yup…two internet nerds in one place is a scary thing…) crashing at my place a couple of nights ago and it was perfect timing because I had a bunch of green-goodness that I was going to have to toss if I didn’t juice it that next morning!  By the way, I use the Debbie Meyer Green Bags and this set of veggies lasted me well over a week in the fridge without losing crispness.   Really, seriously.  If you get them and they don’t I’ll buy them back [...]

Without further adieu, we present to you the JuicyJosh Pineapple MishMosh Juice Recipe-a delectible mashup of pineapple, orange, plum and apple juice!

OK – so we had a team meeting here at 877MyJuicer.com and noticed a lack of a well researched, cited article describing the History of Wheatgrass, What Wheatgrass Is,  The Benefits and Uses of Wheatgrass, the Scientific Analyiss of Wheatgrass, Side Effects of Wheatgrass and Growing Your Own Wheatgrass.  If you have 10 minutes, really read this article. Not only is it very interesting, but it answers all of the questions we have received since 2004 when we launched the business! So – what do you do when you see a problem?  You solve it.  877MyJuicer sought out a professional research writer [...]

While not my favorite form of exercise, running is one of those things I wish I loved to do. I usually save that particular heart-pumping workout for when I am super stressed and need to get some energy out. Well, it’s either running up and down the hills around here or beating the crap out of my punching bag, which, by the way, does wonders for my attitude after a bad day. Whether I’m on my toes, dancing around the punching bag for 20 minutes or I’m pounding the pavement, I need replenished after such a workout. I came across [...]

It was while I was at a graduation this past weekend that I realized it – that time of year is upon us. Reunions. Time to reflect on years past, a world of difference from the innocent hopeful you once were, cheesing widely for your parent’s 300 photo ops in your cap and gown, to the older and (theoretically) wiser you in the mirror. Is this year your 15th year reunion? Or your 30th? When was the last time you cracked open your dusty yearbooks? Whether the changes you see in the mirror are for the better or worse, everyone [...]

I am not a morning person. There is just no way around it. I’ve tried to be, I really have. I’ve made sure I get enough sleep the night before. I’ve stopped using the darn buzzer on my alarm so I don’t wake up angry (every nine minutes for an hour). I’ve set my clock 10 minutes ahead in hopes that it’ll get me moving faster. I’ve even tried to put my alarm clock across the room so I have to get out of bed to turn it off. It doesn’t seem to matter if I wake up late or [...]

What do you think when you hear the word “sprouting?” For some reason I have a vague recollection of someone once telling me that sprouts can be grown in feces. Not sure where that idea came from, but it stuck with me. Unfortunately. I couldn’t look at a sprout without thinking of cow manure. Over the years, I overcame that mental image and tried sprouts on my sandwich and in my salad but they didn’t do much for me. I mentally filed it away as a fringe health thing and ignored it. A few years ago I was diagnosed with [...]

You may have heard about some of the benefits of drinking green juice from professional nutritionist Dr. Oz, who frequently hosts health segments on Oprah Winfrey’s talk show. Dr. Oz swears by green juice because it’s a good source of fiber, chlorophyll and antioxidants. Although green juice is good for you in several different ways, these three seem to be the most beneficial for the needs of the average man or woman’s diet. Green juice provides a tremendous amount of needed fiber for your daily diet. The U.S. Dietary Reference Intakes guidelines state that a man between the ages of [...]
