If your friends in social media (or in real life) are anything like mine, you must have heard the buzz in town. Juicing is the new cool. You may also have come across the term ‘masticating,’ and may be wondering what it is about.
A masticating juicer like the one we will review below extracts all juice from fruits and vegetables using a powerful yet low-paced motor that ensures no heat-up, therefore retaining the nutritional value of your ingredients. The resulting juice also stays fresh for at least 72 hours, thanks to the lack of oxidation.
