If you know nothing about juicing, this book gives you conventional knowledge and discussion on juicing, probably most of which you can find in a Google search. It is convenient to have it all in one place and a fast read, with a small investment of time and money. The basics of what juicing is, suggestions on types of equipment to buy, how to use for weight loss vs, fasting are covered, etc. Honestly, I wish I had found this book before I bought my juicer. I am happy with my purchase, but subsequently limited my choices of what I can do with this juicer.
There is nary a reference to scientific evidence (e.g., USDA nutrition recommendations) to back the claims, but then again, I don't think there is any book on the market that does that. Other books suggest certain juices for certain medical conditions - but again, not sure where the evidence is to support these suggestions. To the author's credit, this topic is addressed in this book in the section titled "Does Juicing Really Work?" The more I read, the more I think we don't know. Today's elixir quickly becomes tomorrow's poison in the world of nutrition and health.
I did really appreciate the author's suggestions on which produce to buy organic vs, non-organic. This can save a lot of money especially for the novice juicer who is trying it out.
There are 12 recipes, about as many as you will get in your owner's manual. Some are labeled for weight loss, others for fasting and detox.
If you want to try juicing, I encourage you to do so. Many people have made a lot of positive health claims and provided testimonials. My personal trainer was hounding me to try it. Only you know your body and habits. I am happy that I did. This book can arm you with the basic knowledge to get started and consider if it is right for you, without purchasing a larger book that will sit in that spare guest room near that treadmill and AB roller.
Enjoy!
