5.0 out of 5 stars A life changing book for me, October 20, 2002

This review is from: Fresh Vegetable and Fruit Juices (Perfect Paperback)

This book got it all started for me in my desire to eat mostly
raw fruits and vegetables (especially the juices). Ten years ago as a first-year graduate
student at UC Santa Barbara I found myself with an acne problem that had plagued me for the last 5 years, in addition to eyes that were beginning to tire easily. Then one day I stumbled upon this book by Dr. Walker which from the onset made complete sense to me. I bought a juiceman juicer the next week (and it hasn't failed me since!) and began a regimen of fresh juice three times a day. Some amazing things began to progess over the next year:!
i) my acne not only completely disappeared, but I found myself having a very youthful, vibrant look. I looked better than I had ever in the past.
ii) I lost 15 pounds in one year and became a star on the softball field.
iii) I have not touched my reading glasses in the past 9 years.
In the words of Jack Lalane (who is older and more fit than 99.99% of all other Americans) "If man made it, I don't eat it".

5.0 out of 5 stars Fresh Vegetables and Fruit Juices, December 1, 2000

This review is from: Fresh Vegetable and Fruit Juices (Perfect Paperback)

About this book by Dr. Norman Walker.

I fully accept the idea of nutrition, health, longevity and freedom from degenerative diseases as very much related to raw, live foods.. and that means vegetable juices. Dr. Walker explains the reasons over and over again in this book.

I bought and followed this when seeking relief of a prostate condition.. I want to sleep more.. yes.. acidic condition and all.

What I now know: Yes, in my case, at age 62, carrot juice has improved my eyesight, which I was not aiming at. I am now able to read telephone books and all fine print.. no glasses.

The combination carrot and asparragus seems great for kidneys and urinary tract problems. Walker is right on target! JL

5.0 out of 5 stars With Norman Walker, you can't go wrong, March 12, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Fresh Vegetable and Fruit Juices (Perfect Paperback)

Norman Walker's books are among the definitive words in all of health. There are few authors that compare to Walker(Arnold Ehret being one of them). Walker died in 1985 and lived to be 109(some say 120, but it is 109)yrs old. This is the first raw-food book I bought and it did not let me down. This man knew what he was talking about: he saw autopsies performed and saw the filth in the body first hand. Get all of his books; you won't be let down.
