Juicing for Life- Avery |
My second copy.
2005-08-30
When you open book and use it in the kitchen over and over, it gets a little worn out. I used it to death.
Some people, have a real hard time with it. The "no-veggie-eating all junk and meat types", oh and don't get me wrong, I'm no rabbit. I love steaks and Taco Bell too, which is WHY I choose to juice. When a friend complains about an ailment, I read up and try to help. Some people are so stubborn and finicky. Yeah, maybe kale, parsley, carrot tastes nasty, but the benefits FAR outweigh the nasty taste. Chase it with somthing REAL good, like pineapple or carrot,apple,ginger. That's no different than the nasty concoctions of liquor shots we used to down with chasers back in the day. Especially if you can forgo eating a huge plate of veggies, ugh. What do you want? Ulcers? Irritable Bowels? Arthritis? Acne? Worse? Or somthing that tastes nasty for a minute and practically saves your life? Have some juice and a bran muffin for cryin out loud. Duh. 
A bit out-of-date

This book is wonderful, but a bit out-of-date -- 1992! I'm sure 13 years later there is even greater research backing up the principles in the book.
The Joy of Juicing
2005-06-02
The benefits of juicing are enormous, by getting the essential vitamins and minerals from fruits and vegetables in a quick, digestible form. Juicing can provide a "meal in a glass" that can make a great snack or even a substitute for a meal in a calorie restricted diet, and for anyone who has to "eat and run", a tall glass of juice is the ultimate fast food.
Part One is "The Basics", with excellent guidelines, including one page of "Juicing Tips" that I found useful. Part Two, "The Disorders", is the bulk of the book, and addresses common ailments and diseases, describes the condition, gives general recommendations, dietary modifications, nutrients that help, beneficial juices and suggested recipes. A wide range of disorders are discussed. Under "C" for instance, there is not only the obvious cancer and cholesterolemia (high cholesterol) listed, but also ailments like carpal tunnel syndrome, which is not usually thought of as being helped through nutrition ("The majority of carpal tunnel sufferers have been found to have low levels of vitamin B6", page 93), and also that bane of 40+ women, cellulite: "The good news is that cellulite can be reversed significantly" (page. 100), and the book tells you how. Part Three is "The Diet Plans", and has suggestions for everyday meals, with basic healthy eating, "Immune Support Diet", and many different types of cleansing diets and advice. Cherie "The Juicewoman" Calbom and Maureen Keane have a long list of credentials and "know their onions" in the field of nutrition, and if you believe that what you eat has a direct impact on you physical health and stress level, this is a good book to have in your library. Also recommended is "Prescription for Nutritional Healing" by James and Phyllis Balch.
Food for Thought

We're about to order our second copy - we think we loaned the first one out, but we can't remember to whom.
I think there may actually be a section in this book on juices for improving memory... In any case, we're on our third juicing machine and this is the best juice "cookbook" we've found so far. Counterbalancing the taste of raw kale juice is a culinary trick, but these folks do it!
Excellent Juicing for Life, Health and Vitality

What I love about this book is that ailments you wish to cure are listed in category order, which makes it quite easy to find a juicing recipe to help reverse the internal effects.
Additionally, the book gives wonderful general recommendations along with an explanation of that ailment. On top of that, "Dietary Modifications" are provided with practical, easy to understand advice as to what foods and beverages to avoid, along with "Nutrients that Help" combined with "Beneficial Juices". Then, to top it all off there are great "Suggested Juicing Recipes" that will target whatever ails you. From anti-ageing to chronic fatigue syndrome, to underweight, this book is simple to follow and provides you with the knowledge of exactly what your system needs in order to maintain maximum health. Highly recommended if you want to improve your health, and bring nutrient-rich vitamins and minerals into your body naturally.
