If you are looking at a rapid weight loss through juicing, then it is advisable that you consult a dietician or a physician before starting the diet. Consumed in the form of shakes and juices, they can be extremely healthy for you. However, a large part of the nutritional content in a juice and smoothies is based on the extraction method used. Juicing and blending are the most common methods used but there are certain situations that could still affect the outcome. Poor quality blenders can play a great role on the kind of smoothie or juice you end up making. Certain cheaper blenders can actually become very hot and exposure to large amounts of heat actually destroys the delicate nutrients that are in the smoothie or the juice. By opting to invest in a high quality blender such as NutriBullet, you can improve the quality of the smoothie or juice you blend. Unfortunately, these can be rather expensive so you don t always have the best choices available if you are on a limited budget.

Beginners Guide to Making Smoothies with NutriBullet Even though it is not as complicated as other blenders and juicers, there are still certain ways to use it. Since it is so simple in design, it is easy to get over confident and not go through the tutorial. When you look at the NutriBullet, it is so simple in design that it feels like there isn t room for error. Plus, how hard could be to blend some fruit to make a smoothie, right? All you have to do is throw fruit and vegetables in, add some liquid, pop the cover on, and blend till you get the smoothie or juice you want, easy. The following are some tips and tricks that every beginner should know when they are learning to make smoothies with NutriBullet. Since it is so deceptively simple and easy to use, these points can serve as a reminder to keep basic things in mind when you are blending your delicious concoctions.
How to use the NutriBullet Efficiently When working with the NutriBullet, there are some things that you have to pay attention to; otherwise, you will be unable to take advantage of the NutriBullet properly. When you take a look, NutriBullet is largely made of three components. There is the base that houses the processor engine, the tops or covers that have the blade attachment and a conical, oval shaped, glass tube or cup, where you place all the vegetables and fruits and any liquids. The blade attachment functions as a cover for the glass tube. Once you have filled it with your chosen ingredients, you can attach the cover, with the blade side facing inside. The other end of the blade attachment is attached to the processor that powers the blender. The economical design of the glass top also makes it easy to get the smoothie out. All you have to do once you have blended your smoothie, is to remove the tube from the processor, turn it over, take off the blade attachment, and you can easily pour out the smoothie from the tube into a glass or jug. Cleaning the NutriBullet is also a breeze. You don t have to mess with the food processor, if you didn t spill any smoothie on it, but you will have to clean the blades and the glass tube. Once you have poured out the smoothie you prepared, all you need to do is take the
blade attachment and the glass tube, rinse it well with water to get any remaining pulp out before putting them in the dishwasher. Remember to wash the blade you use and the glass tube after each smoothie you make. You can make multiple smoothies in one go, but it is better to give the blade and the glass tube a good rinse with water to wash off any residue left from the ingredients you used to make the first smoothie. Rinse and repeat until you have made all your smoothie blasts. Once you are done making your smoothies, rinse everything one last time, pop it into the dishwasher and you are good to go!
Different Attachments for Different Items While it is so simple, you have to realize that the NutriBullet comes with different blade settings for different items. The most basic blade top that comes with the NutriBullet at the time of purchase is perfect for most fruits and vegetables, but it may not be the one suited to grind seeds and nuts. This doesn t mean that NutriBullet cannot do what it has been advertised to do. While NutriBullet is powerful enough to blitz seeds, nuts and other tougher food items, you will need a particular blade attachment for it to do so successfully. Using the fruit and vegetable blade attachment to chop up nuts and seeds will only give you half-crushed nuts and seeds that ruin the texture of the smoothie or the blast. When purchasing a NutriBullet, make sure to pick up these attachments as well. They are all made to fit on top of the NutriBullet glass tube, so you won t have a problem switching from one blade to another. Moreover, each blade is designed for a different purpose, so you can easily find the perfect one that matches your needs. Whether you want to make a smoothie or simply a puree for a dip, or want to try making almond butter by grinding almond nuts, the three different blade settings makes it very easy to do all of those things and more. Therefore, when using the NutriBullet, you can rest easy knowing that, ice cubes are also no problem for the NutriBullet. However, keep in mind that you will have to make sure you are using the right blade for it to crush the cubes properly. Using the wrong blade for a smoothie can leave you with partially crushed ice-cubes, chunkier fruit pieces and more whole nuts and seeds than you had wanted. Not only can this ruin the texture of the smoothie, but also create a bitter or unpleasant taste to infuse through the whole smoothie since the ingredients were not incorporated properly to make the smoothie work for you. Luckily, you can easily order the other blade attachments at the time of purchase. Since the NutriBullet is so economically priced, you can easily afford to get the three blades without worrying about going over your budget. Even buying a replacement blade attachment is easy as you will not be worrying about hefty price tags if you have to replace the blade attachment because it has worn out.
Pay Attention to the MAX Line When you want to blend anything in the NutriBullet, you cannot just throw everything in the glass tube to the top and blend away. There is a certain limit you fill the blender to and if it exceeds that, the smoothie will start to puddle out and create a huge mess. If you have had to clean up after using the NutriBullet once or twice, you will start to realize how annoying it is. Luckily, there is a MAX Line that helps to point out how much fruits and vegetables you should fill the glass tube with. The MAX Line can be almost invisible if you aren t paying attention, so you can also choose to take a permanent marker and highlight it to make it more visible for you. Moreover, the MAX Line is the best way to ensure that any fruits, juices or vegetables you add will not overflow when you start blending them. Another thing that makes it very useful is that you can learn to make an allowance for the liquid that will fill the tube and the cover as well. Since fruits are in a solid shape, they will release their juices as they are pulverized, which can cause the smoothie to overflow if you filled the tube above the MAX Line. Moreover, by filling the fruit and juices and keeping them below the line, you can ensure that when you screw on the blade top cover, the slight compression it adds will not push the fruits past the MAX Line. By using it as a guide line for your blending purposes, you can easily make smoothies with little to no spills or clean ups required.
Ice cubes are Good, Frozen Fruits are better Ice cubes are a great way to make your smoothies fun and perfect for a hot, sunny day. Moreover, they give the smoothie a pleasing texture and incorporate more moisture into it. As a replacement for water, they are perfect. But at times, you might end up with a smoothie that is a bit too watered down as the ice cubes or crushed ice melts. To avoid that from happening, you can easily turn towards frozen fruits that can give the smoothie a crushed ice texture and add more juice to it as they thaw out slowly. Frozen fruits are also more economical since they can last longer and you can even get plenty of berries that are usually out of season. Even when you are using a fruit or vegetable that is fresh toss it in the freezer, to chill, for an hour or more, before you pop it into the NutriBullet to give a cool blast of flavor to your smoothie. Just remember to use the correct blade since frozen fruits can be harder to blend in completely. Freezing fruit can also make it easier to slice certain fruits like bananas, melons and pineapples so it can be the perfect win-win situation for you. You also won t have to turn towards adding unwanted ice cubes into a recipe. However, some recipes are just better with crushed ice in them so you can mix and match and work out your own preference when making a smoothie with the NutriBullet.
Chop Everything This one goes without saying but people can often overlook it. Make sure to chop everything into cube sized pieces because it just gets blended more easily and gives a smoothie the perfect texture more quickly. With whole fruit, you put a lot of undue pressure on the blade and the food processor, increasing the chances of the engine shutting down, or the blade becoming blunt and performing badly. Even if you are using vegetables like kale or broccoli, chopping them up makes them easier to dissolve into the smoothie. The tube shape might often tempt you to throw in bigger pieces, or even a whole banana if you are feeling particularly lazy but you could end up with a smoothie that is badly blended or needs more power to blend. The best thing about the NutriBullet is that it makes you a smoothie extremely quickly, but you have to help it along as well. Besides, chopping all the ingredients beforehand allows them to be pulverized and incorporated into the smoothie more effectively and efficiently. Now that you have gotten the hang of using your NutriBullet blender effectively, you can take a look at the recipes below and have fun blending amazing smoothies that not only give you a Blast of flavor, but also add tons of different benefits and necessary nutrients and vitamins into your diet.
