How do you take your fruit

Get the cheap type of salt will do. You are just using the coarseness of the salt to do the scrubbing. Cos using soap and a score pad is out of the question! Using salt will ensure the fruits are clean and the salt is gentle enough not to bruise the fruits when washing. Remember to rinse them throughly before you consume them. Other wise, you will just be adding to the blood pressure due to the salt intake.

that's a very useful tip. especially relevant to me since i'm using sea salt at home. can you imagine a packet of sea salt can only be used once. i'd go bankrupt very soon. lol normal salt shall be on my shopping list. cheers :D

oh yah that didn't occur to me at all. i was thinking that if i don't eat the skin i'll be fine. maybe the new-fangled centrifugal force juicing moment is supposed to help with this? or at least i am hoping that it'll work. :p hmm washing fruits with salt... this is the first time i've heard of this. i shall try it out in these few days. guess it's not too troublesome for me as i juice for the whole family. that's six adults which means quite a bit of fruits. i leave my juicer on the counter as i'd likely to be using it pretty often. :D

that's really good for you. the skin of fruits is supposed to contain the highest level of anti oxidants. like the saying goes, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. :p actually i'm not so worried about it killing me. it's more of the supposed effects of these additives. then again, i will just wash the skin of the apple before taking a big bite. the crunchiness is really hard to beat. :D

yes it's really very neat. i've been eyeing it since the day it was launched. but it was pretty pricey so i didn't get it. i do love fruit juice on a hot day. or when there's a sale of fruits at the supermarket. i can drink the same fruit juice for a week and still want more. that's how much i love fruit juice. :D

that's good for you. none of the nutrients are lost when fruits are eaten whole. juicing them makes it easier to take. but in the process fibre is definitely lost. not to mention some of the antioxidants.

yes i do love fruits. i can't think of any fruit that i don't like. well maybe i can't say i love dragon fruit. it's a tropical fruit with red skin like that of dragon scales. it's flesh is either white or red with seeds in it like kiwi. the white fleshed ones are pretty bland. however i love the red fleshed ones coz it's sweet and fragrant. :D

hmm seems like most people like their fruits just like this. do you eat fruits because of the texture or the taste? maybe the feeling of biting into a fruit is an enjoyable one. i for one loves biting into very crunchy apples. the sound, accompanied by the juice spilling into my mouth, is really good. think i'll go get a couple of apples later. cheers :D

yah removing the skin means at least half of the goodness is gone. the anti oxidants and the fibre are mostly in the skin. guess modernisation didn't really do us that much good. we now worry about almost everything we put into our mouth. :(
