The Big Book of Juices: More Than 400 Natural Blends for Health and Vitality Every Day

I highly recommend this book to anyone who is serious about juicing or just loves a great glass of fresh juice. The book is a pleasure to the eyes in that every page (excluding the great index) has wonderful pictures that draw you in to that particular recipe. The book also has recipes for specific ailments - many of which we commonly see these days. There is also a 5 star rating system on each recipe to rate for benefits to Energy, Detox, Immunity, Digestion, and Skin. Specific nutrients in each recipe are also listed (i.e., Beta-carotene, biotin, folic acid, vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, etc.)There are recipes for fruit-based juices, vegetable-based juices, smoothies, quenchers, tea-based quenchers. Additionally, the author has included a section on juicing basics which discusses why to juice, the difference between juices and smoothies, the equipment you use, the ingredients, and healthy additives. This book has it all. It is about 700 pages of pure juicing joy!At the back of the book she has a nice list of nutrients (vitamins, minerals and other important nutrients and where they are found. There is an ailment cross-reference behind the nutrient list which points to the appropriate recipes for the specific ailment. She does a great job at this and I think readers will really find this book both helpful and healthful.The book is 728 pages. The recipes start on page 38 (after she gives you tips on getting the most from your juicing) and finish up on page 703. The index is 8 pages long so this book is set up well for anyone who want to juice - the beginner to the expert. The recipes are great. I really think you will enjoy this book if you purchase it.Just an aside - I ordered the book when I ordered a juicer from Amazon. The juicer arrived in a matter of a couple of days but the book had been back-ordered and I received it approximately 5-6 weeks later (with 2 day delivery,) and I have to believe it was because of its popularity. The price is right at just below $17.00.I hope you enjoy it just as much as I am enjoying it.

This book is fantastic. Includes an incredible selection of juices and smoothies, and almost all of them utilize easy to find ingredients that you can find at your local grocery store. It also explains the different tastes and qualities of individual fruits and vegetables, so that you can begin to experiment with making your own juices. She also explains the use of different juicers, so that a novice juicer can make a well informed decision for their budget and needs. One attribute that I really enjoy is that each of the juices only uses perhaps 3 to 5 ingredients, so you don't have to break the bank to have a revitalizing cup of juice.The book is divided into easy to use sections, and the back of the book has a wonderful index that recommends specific juices for whatever particular ailment or issue that you may be experiencing. It is easy to read, fun, and full of wonderful color pictures. One thing that you may want to be aware of, is that some of the juices look ugly and brown when you make them, but despite the appearance they taste amazing! Usually the author will give you a heads up to let you know that you are going to have an ugly juice. My three-year-old has truly been enjoying sharing a fresh cup of juice with me every morning. I love knowing that he is getting so many nutrients, enzymes, bioflavanoids, etc.My husband, who is not used to juicing, or the taste of vegetables has been surprised to find how palatable the vegetable juices are when the right ingredients are combined. Overall, I would recommend this book to anyone interested in juicing!

I really love this book. It is exactly what I needed. It's amazing. One can drink every day a different juice for one year long, and one will not get bored by drinking healthy :)I love this book because doesn't lose itself in details. Everything is very clear: one banana, one apple, one orange, two peaches and so on. The book has two parts: juices and smoothies, making it a perfect guide for someone who wants to follow healthier eating habits. Besides the juicer, one will going to need a blender too, for the smoothies. The smoothies recipes contain yogurt, but it's letting you to change with milk, soy milk or tea or other juices if you would rather like that.It's not a hard book to follow and you don't need to be an expert juicer:) What one can put into one's mouth, one can put in the juicer too. It's simple: if one can eat the apple without being peeled then one can put it in the juicer with peel too; on the other hand, if one cannot eat the orange with the peel then definitely one won't try to juice the orange with the peel. (the orange peel can be eaten in certain circumstances, but only under the oven cooking process - cookies). At the smoothies part if it's not specified juice (obtained with the help of a juicer) then everything goes in the blender.Great book, I would recommend it to everyone who wants to lose weight (adding at least 30 min of sport/day to eating and drinking healthy), to feel more energized or to one who wants to improve one's health.

For beginners it is nice book.

What a book!! Bang full of juices! Quick simple instructions... fabulous

El libro es una excelente opción para generar nuevas ideas acerca de jugos con el añadido de los nutrientes que contiene, sin embargo le doy sólo 3 estrellas porque llegó abierto sin envoltura plástica para asegurarse de alguna manera que fuese totalmente nuevo, además de que lelgó maltratado.
