Fruit Juicer for eye problem

Thats Just How I Roll.

It's saying on some websites that the juice from carrots may be of help with
Eye Cataracts.

Argos catalogue has two reasonable priced ones of page 699. One is ?19.99
and the other is ?29.99.

Would anyone have experience of using these particular juicers and would
recommend one for using with carrots. Since someone said that carrots are
among the more difficult things to juice satifactorarily.

no idea what ours is, but it mashes most things with violent
rapidity.

However most of the guff talked about carrots is exactly that. Guff.

The carrots myth was deliberate disinformation released during WW2.
It was intended to hide from the Krauts the fact that that all their
messages to Uboats were being decoded with the Bombe and Colossus
machines at Bletchley Park.
The lie was that a diet of carrots enabled the Coastal Command air
crews to see in the dark.

Seventy years on, the myth still lives! Heh Heh! To the gullible
anyway.

You can find lots of other jokes on websites too! What are you supposed to do
with it, bath in it?

Stop reading rubbish, go to your GP and get him/her to refer you to a
consultant.

If you are worried about the op - particularly if you are thinking of someone
who had it many years ago - stop worrying and start looking forward to it!

Local anaesthetic, takes less than half an hour. The cartaract is broken up
with ultrasound and removed. A new plastic lens is slipped in to replace the
old one and you end up with perfect distance vision - even if you needed
glasses before.

I had the first one done about 3 years ago, just as the second one was starting
to develop - and I couldn't wait to have that one done too!

After wearing glassses from the age of 14, I no longer need them at all for
distance vision at the age of 66. However, I still need them for reading but
because I'd been wearing bifocals for twenty years, I never had my reading
glasses to hand when I needed them!

So I'm now wearin varifocals because having the the intermediate strength is
ideal for the PC.

It's amazing what you can find on the web...


Unless you just happen to like carrot juice, why not look and see if you
can find a *single* controlled trial of carrot juice for the treatment and
prevention of cataracts.

The version I grew up with was the myth was promulgated to cover up the fact
that our air crews had magnetron powered radar sets.

We have one of these:

and the pulp that comes out is quite dry - it makes really nice juice out
of anything vaguely moist... (apple and carrot is qute nice) However
you do have to chop the fruit, veg, etc. into small pieces before it
will go through and there's always the cleaning afterwards...

And while not quite industrial quality, it did take most of a tree of
bramleys last year, giving us nearly 20 litres of apple juice - and only
overheated twice... (and took 2 of us the best part of a day)

As for the eyes... dunno - I'd see a doctor if they were mine!

I expect the information on the site is every bit as reputable as that

Indeed. My 86 year old mother-in-law had both done (a few months apart,
with a hip replacement in between).

She said the only downside was finding out how dirty the kitchen floor
was, and having to clean it!

That is the version I have always heard, although one use of airborne
radar was to detect submarines on the surface at night.

BTW Gee was a navigation system.

There were quite a few different radar types during the war, often
changing as the technology improved. H2S was a ground mapping bombing
aid, while Night Fighters carried a short range air to air radar and
were talked to within their radar range by controllers using ground
based radar.
