Joanne, your timing is perfect! I'm so on the fence beteen the Omego Juicer (Nutrition Center) and the Vitamix. I like the Omega's slow speed cold press so enzymes, vitamins and antioxidants are maintained and for longer storage but not sure I want to give up the pulp and fiber the Vitamix offers. I think I heard that while I'm going through chemo all the fiber might not be such a good idea and go with a juicer to get the nutrients and eat the foods for fiber.

Here is the omega. Both my sisters use it daily and LOVE IT (but one has the Vitamixer as well).

I'd love to have both but want to start somewhere. My diet is 180 degrees better and I want to keep improving my health - we are what we eat!
