Main reason I bought the book. Here is a pic of health conditions.
By Janz on August 8, 2022
Main reason I bought the book. Here is a pic of health conditions.
Some of the ingredients in this book include: lavender, powdered licorice, dandelions, powdered linden flower, borage leaves, acai berries, red raspberry leaves, stinging nettle, kelp, astragalus root, meadowsweet and apricot milk. While I've heard of these ingredients before I have no idea where to get them. The small sources section at the back of the book doesn't really give me any clues as to who carries which herbs. Most of the spices used in this book can however be found at your local grocery store.
This book is divided into 8 main sections which include:
Healthy Body Systems - A brief discussion of the endocrine system, immune system, musculoskeletal system, nervous system and respiratory system. There is a short discussion of hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, arthritis, osteoporosis, muscle spasms, anxiety, depression, memory loss, asthma and allergies.
Health Conditions - This is a comprehensive section organized alphabetically. It discusses things like cancer prevention, headaches, indigestion and water retention.
Each illness is discussed and remedies are given. The remedies include healing foods and herbs. Healing drinks are listed at the end of each section.
Healthy Foods - This section lists fruits and vegetables in alphabetical order. Each vegetable and fruit has a section with a description, use and buying and storing information. At the end of each section there is a list of juices you can make using the specific fruit or vegetable. For instance under cucumbers it is listed as a diuretic and is a good source of vitamin A.
Fruit and Vegetable Juices - This is the section that includes the basic fruit and vegetable juice recipes. Here you will find simple fruit and vegetable combinations. Some include:
Orange Star - Star fruits, oranges, cantaloupe and lemon
Pear Fennel - Pears, fennel, apples and powdered licorice
Summer Nectar - Nectarines, apricots, blueberries, peaches and plums
Green Magic - celery, cabbages, spinach, pumpkin and powdered ginkgo
Juices for Healthy Bodies - This section is divided up into:
Heart-Healthy Tonics
Aperitifs and Digestives
Bitters
Endocrine Elixirs
Immunity Boosters
Muscle Powers
Nerve Nourishers
Stress Busters
Tonics
Respiratory Juices
Cleansers
Healing Teas
Roughies and Smoothies - Here you will find recipes for applesauce, Papaya Marinade, Berry Smoothies and Tropical Cocktails.
Specialty Drinks - There are some interesting recipes in this section, for example,
Melon Cocktail
Hot Spiced Apples
Apple-Orange Punch
Lavender Punch
Indian Chai Tea
Coffee Substitutes
Frozen Treats - If you have an ice cream machine then you will love this section. Some of the interesting combinations include Strawberry-Beet Ice, Lemon Ice, Basil-Pear Sherbet, Fruit Pulp Frozen yogurt (a good way to use up fruit pulp after juicing) and Berry Pops.
To complete the book there is a glossary and a helpful index. While this book is interesting it will take a greater deal of effort to find some of the ingredients. You can of course substitute many ingredients and still have good success with the recipes. I'd recommend this to the very adventurous juicer who loves herbs and spices and is willing to plant unique plants in his/her garden. I've been to many health food stores but I've never found some of the ingredients listed in this book. So many of the recipes require advanced planning. If you want a creative book on juicing that has ingredients that are easy to find I can recommend: Ultimate Juicing: Delicious Recipes for Over 125 of the Best Fruit & Vegetable Juice Combinations and The Juice Lady's Juicing for High Level Wellness and Vibrant Good Looks .
~The Rebecca Review
This book The Juicing Bible has been the most helpful of the two.
The Juicing Bible does contain 350 recipes, and not just juices, but also frappes, mulled juices, smoothies, roughies (such as salsas), teas, coffees, milk substitutes, and other concoctions for health, but it also does so much more.
The first main section of the book lists about 75 pages of health conditions such as Aging, Allergies, Quitting Smoking, Menopause, Water Retention.
For example, let's turn to the section on Constipation. Under each malady, it lists Healing Foods for that condition (in this case: prunes from the Fruits/Veggies category, ginger from the Herbs category, and flax seeds from the Other category, among many others. You can then consult the What To Do column, where it explains what to Maximize (in this case: fiber) and what to Eliminate (refined foods.) Most importantly, though, for each malady, it also lists Healing Drinks, complete with the page numbers for the recipes. For constipation, they suggest the Prune Smoothie from page 305, Digestive Seed Tea from page 211, and Applesauce from page 291, among many more. The recipes are broken down into Juices, Smoothies, Teas, Coffees, and Others.
As you can imagine, this is an extremely helpful section of the book. If I don't see any recipes I like under the health condition I'm checking, I look up one of the Healing Foods listed for it in the index, and find more recipes. In the case of Constipation, I check for more prune or flax seed recipes.
The next main section of the book is about 50 pages listing fruits, vegetables, and herbs. Under Plums (which are dried to make prunes), for example, it lists its actions (antibacterial and antioxidant), it's uses (source of vitamin A, calcium, vitamin C), tips for buying and storing, tips on how to juice it (skin intact, pitted), how to pulp it (use fresh whole plums), and then, again, recipes using plums or prunes. While most fruits and veggies are probably easy to figure out, the Herbs section is especially useful, giving tips on where and when to find them, cautions on health conditions not to use them, how to use the leaves versus the dried flowers, and how to make infusions versus tinctures, etc.
The next main section is about 150 pages of the recipes. Fruit and Vegetable Juices (divided into a Fruit section and a Veggie section) , Juice For Healthy Bodies (divided into sections too numerous to mention, for example: Heart-Healthy Tonics, Endocrine Elixirs, Muscle Powers, etc), Roughies And Smoothies, Specialty Drinks, and Frozen Drinks. The recipes are very imaginative and, so far, are quite tasty given that they're chocked full of beets, kale, raspberries, and the like.
If you're looking for a photo of each drink or it's contents, this is not the book for you. Try the The Big Book of Juices and Smoothies: 365 Natural Blends for Health and Vitality Every Day that I mentioned earlier. It has more photos. This book does have 10 pages of pics in the center of randomly selected recipes, but with all the other info this book provides, I can personally do without the photos.
The index in this book is also quite helpful, unlike in the other book I mentioned, and I have been able to find recipes easily.
Overall, I can imagine I will not get bored with this book and will probably have it (and continue to use it) for years, as the seasons and thus the seasonal veggies and fruits, change, as I aim at different health conditions, immunity as the flu season hits, skin dryness in the winter, etc, etc.
This is the 2nd edition. The back of the book says there are 100 new recipes over the old edition.
