I juice approximately 50 lbs. of carrots per week just for starters. I will be starting chemotherapy this week and the doctors have all emphatically told me that I cannot eat fresh fruits and vegetables unless they can be peeled, but generally not to eat them at all, because of potential bacteria that can lead to infection in chemo patients who have lower immune system functioning. That was shocking to me because those are the foods that we are told are the healthiest for us. I looked around on the web to find out how to wash my produce and quite readily came across the Lotus Sanitizer. Why the physicians don't know about this I'll never know!<BR/><BR/>I am also a single parent who works the equivalent of 2 full-time jobs, doing low-paid work (teaching and caring for children) so the medical expenses that I currently have, even with self-purchased insurance, are insurmountable. The Tersano Company most graciously donated their Lotus Sanitizer to me, and had it shipped overnight so that I could have it before I started the chemo treatments. They have been the kindest, most helpful folks that I could ever imagine and I am deeply grateful to them!!!<BR/><BR/>I have been using the Sanitizer daily since it arrived and it works beautifully! Although I buy organic produce, I have been peeling carrots before I juice them, and when I scrubbed the first batch to put in the sanitizer, I had to run it through twice, because I got the F1 code that says all of the bacteria is not gone (thank goodness for that feature!). However, I bought a stiffer brush to wash the carrots and since then I have only had to run them through the sanitizer once. I have sanitized about 7 very large bunches of spinach and 3 large heads of leaf lettuce and they came out great! Everything I have put through has done very well, with the exception of organic strawberries, and I read somewhere that the little seeds might be a problem, plus berries tend to be the most contaminated. I already can see that I will save a lot of money on produce, because I won't have to peel and throw away all of those peelings from 50 lbs. of carrots per week, plus all of the lettuce and spinach, etc. that goes bad in just a couple of days after I buy it, won't be the case since the Lotus helps produce last longer.<BR/><BR/>I've also been using the spray bottle attachment to clean my counters and wipe down the bathroom every day. I cannot say enough good things about this system. I wish I had known about it long before, because I could have used much less bleach and ammonia for cleaning purposes. I don't have the mop, but I am going to use the sanitized water today to clean my kitchen floor using the microfiber cloth that came with the system.<BR/><BR/>This is an awesome product, I am so glad I discovered it and I am so very grateful to this company for their kindness and helpfulness. I am recommending this to everyone I know!!! I am not affiliated with this company in any way, I had never even heard of them until I did a web search trying to find out how to effectively wash produce.Adrianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07692265999334068865noreply@blogger.com
