Blender

My boyfriend bought me a blender yesterday :) It was supposed to be a surprise, but he forgot that Kmart sends me e-receipts in the mail...imagine my horror when it thanks me for shopping there when I was nowhere near the store! Lol.

 

Anyway, I believe it's a Hamilton Beach, and he told me it's 700 watt. He just asked me to ask you guys if that strength is fine for most recipes...I really don't know myself, but I am assuming it's fine. I definitely want to make almond milk, and probably fruit smoothies at some point. MAYBE my own nut butters, but that might call for a food processor or something stronger.

How nice to have a blender now! That type of blender should be sufficient for nut milks and fruit smoothies.

 

I make nut butters in my Vitamix, which is 1380 watts. When I owned an Oster, which is 500 watts, I wasn't able to make any nut butters in it.

I know. He's really sweet. I guess they had it for a good deal at Kmart and he figured he'd grab it. Now I have my spiralizer and a blender! :)

 

Oh wow...yeah I don't think I'll try to make nut butters in this one. I'll try to keep it lighter. I don't really need to make my own nut butters...I love the S&S brand...the only ingredient is almonds, so that works. I'll probably look into other blender recipes as well for more ideas.

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.

      Yes I took a supplement that had B6 in it, low dosage though. I've stopped taking that. B1 doesn't affect other B vitamin levels?

      Have you tried lip balm made from tallow?  It's been used for thousands of years and works better than those with waxes. I prefer Vintage Traditions brand tallow balm products.

      Are you taking a B 6 supplement or a supplement containing B 6 like a B Complex?  Do you have pins and needles in your toes?   Don't worry about the thiamine being high.  The blood is a transport system that carries thiamine to the cells so they can store it.  It's fine.

      Quick question, had some blood tests done again and once again my zinc was too low but now ofcourse my B1 was too high and so was my B6. The doc said to  immediately  stop all supplements that contain B6. Can using thiamine raise the levels of B6 too?
