Very good submitted by Ele Z. on August 3, 2011, 4:12am Good
Confidence builder for those new to juicing submitted by bsimon3 on June 20, 2014, 11:48am This book is a good primer about juicing and its benefits. Those new to juicing will find the encouragent they need to jump in and give juicing a try, whether to simply add a vegetable juice to one's daily diet or to try a mult-day juice fast or cleanse. The author recommends a systematic approach to working through a detoxification program, starting with a juice fast and then cleansing each major organ of elimination. The book comes off as a bit of a self-help book at times, with anecdotal tales of the author and her readers having hit rock-bottom with their health, followed by claims that juicing was their salvation. While some may find inspiration in these stories, I found myself wishing for more scientific explainations of the claims being made by the author about the many benefits of juicing. Overall, for anyone looking for a handbook to get started with juicing complete with recipes to try, this book is well worth the small amount of time it takes to read it.
