Product Description

Unleash your life force with the power of cleansing!

Today's stressful schedules and hectic lifestyles can leave us feeling drained, both physically and emotionally. But we don't always know the best way to reboot and rejuvenate. Now, in Super Cleanse, holistic chef and cleanse expert Adina Niemerow reveals the key to de-stressing, detoxing, clearing your mind, and revitalizing your body: by tapping into the miracle benefits of a cleanse. There's no one-size-fits-all approach to cleansing here; instead, Niemerow presents ten comprehensive cleanse experiences for both the beginning and the veteran cleanser, with specifically tailored recipes and exercise/activity suggestions that combine to form mini-retreats for the body, mind, and spirit.

There are more than one hundred delicious recipes for juices, soups, smoothies, salads, main dishes, and side dishes, with full menus for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. There's also a pre-cleanse checklist, ways to ease the detox process, a rundown on the best juicers, and tips for how to get the most out of your cleanse. Complete with first-person success stories from Niemerow's happy clients that bring the cleanses to life, Super Cleanse is an enjoyable and effective way for readers to jump-start their health and reenergize their lives.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best cleanses, best receipes, best cleansing book out there!, July 29, 2008

By	Karen Mondoux (Sausalito, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Super Cleanse is the best book I've ever read or used on cleansing. It is packed with truly delicious recipes for juices and cleansing foods that one can use to cleanse or to also easily incorporate into everyday living. The author makes the process fun and easy. I did the Urban Revitalizer cleanse after being overworked by ongoing business travel, depleted and hooked on coffee and sugar. It was completely amazing. I enjoyed the cleanse more than any other I have ever done because the recipes were delicious, nutritious and sustaining. I lost @ 7 pounds, got off a multiple latte a day habit and felt energized, serene and better than I had in a long time. After studying natural medicine, attending nutrition school and working at a popular vitamin company for the past 10 years, I have read many books on cleansing. This is truly the most useful, inspiring and health promoting cleansing book I have ever read. I highly recommend it for anyone that is interested in cleansing, great tasting healthy recipes or increasing their overall health!

5.0 out of 5 stars Cleanse as you Go, August 7, 2008

By	Karen Lehner (Mill Valley, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

After purchasing this book in June, I did the Urban detox and lost 5 pounds, gained better sleep and just felt a lot more energized. Where does the bloat go? I don't know, but within 2 days my stomach was flatter than it had been in a long time and with no crunches!
I have to do a lot of travel for work and I brought the book along - it's the perfect size and weight - on my next trip. I found I could actually use some of the day fasts and other plans while on the road. Instead of gaining weight due to odd hours working and being away from my own kitchen, I actually lost 3 pounds over a 10 day trip. I LOVE this book. There is variety, great tasting foods and I feel like I'm learning how to keep my body in tune. It's not all clinical and it really is kind of fun to try out the different regimes. I know they are safe, well researched and tested and that Adina Niemerow knows what she's doing. This is no fad approach. You can use the ideas and cleanses in this book in your real life. It's so much easier than I thought to really learn how to live and eat a better way. And who doesn't want to lose the bloat and unbalanced feeling you get from travel, stress and "holiday" (ok, weekend party) eating and festivities? Try this with some friends. It's easy and really can be fun!

I have had this book for a few weeks now and have to say it is the most complete book i have seen. it is fantastic if you are a first time cleanser or want a quick jump start. though if you have done cleanses before and are looking for something comprehensive, this book will give you all the info you will ever need so says my cleanse friends. Buy it, you will not be disapointed. A must for your library!
