Want To Make The Healthiest Juice?

The best way to make the healthiest juice with a juicer is to use organic produce whenever you can. Organic fruits and vegetables are grown without pesticides, fungicides, herbicides or other harmful chemicals. Plus, organic foods are not grown from genetically modified seeds. When juicing, always try to use certified organic produce.

Celery - The 4th Dirtiest Vegetable

March is National Celery Month. If you juice a lot of celery you might want to use organic celery that is grown free of pesticides and other chemicals. The Environmental Work Group recently published their list of the cleanest and dirtiest fruits and vegetables. Celery was the fourth dirtiest.

Juice organic celery. Pesticides can seep into the meat of fruits and vegetables, thus, even a thorough washing and cleaning cannot get all of the chemicals out of the food.
