Drinking fruit and vegetable juices have been proven as an effective and quick way of detoxifying one’s body. Juice diet is one of the methods now popularly used in flushing away toxins. To achieve the best quality and ample amount of fruit and vegetable yield is through a masticating juicer. Masticating juicer also known as single gear or single auger juicer which works through the process of chewing or grounding the solid food then squeezing follows to bring out juice yield.  Compared to other kinds of juicers masticating juicer can yield more quantities of juice. The slower RPM speed of masticating juicers yields less foaming and heating of the extract. This means it is quieter to run compared to other models. However, for juicing larger amount or quantities of solid food at the same time, may be time-consuming.

Another feature of masticating juicers is that it can homogenize foods. Homogenized foods are perfect to provide baby food or other food ideas like pasta and breadsticks. Masticating juicers may tend to be more expensive than other models but is invaluable for its benefits.

Here are some models of Masticating Juicer:
