excellent resource & recipe book!
The book has some outdated info (refers to anti-oxidants as 'anutrients') but the book was published in 1992, so give it a break! The book has all kinds of helpful & healthful tips and tidbits of advice, which I like when embarking on a new venture such as juicing. The book itself is in excellent condition (I bought a used copy). Not only does this book list specific conditions (from acne to water retention) but it also has solid, nutritional advice on possible nutrient deficiencies as well as what those nutrients do to help the condition. Then it lists foods that are high in that nutrient, as well as dietary modifications to possibly improve your health. Next, it lists numerous juice recipes that target your particular health concern. The book also lists diet plans as well as juice cleanses as well as juice recipes for the different types of cleanses. I highly recommend this book & am very glad it was one of my first recipe books on juicing.

If Interested in Juicing, This is a Worthwhile Book
My wife borrowed an earlier edition of this book from a friend, and I liked it so much that I ordered a fresh copy. The text includes a section on the basics of juicing, with subsections on nutrients, the benefits of juicing, and general information and tips on juicing, as well as a much larger section - the bulk of the text - organized by disorders, offering recommendations, dietary tips, helpful nutrients, beneficial juices, and suggested juicing recipes proven to be helpful with each particular disorder, going well beyond the juicing aspect of the problem. The last section of the book is on diet plans. I don't know that I'd depend on this book entirely, since doctors have their purposes too, but there are certainly some good ideas here, especially for those, like me, who would rather deal with problems through diet and natural means rather than turning immediately to medications as a solution to everything that comes my way. Medications certainly have their purposes too, but if a problem can be reversed by modifying a diet or by exercising, I think that's the healthier way. This is a helpful book. It doesn't replace your doctor, and I wouldn't be too quick to replace your medications with a juicer, but the book certainly has some good ideas.

Had this book before
Had book before, and it started to fall apart after many years. So decided to get a new one and throw away the old. The only thing I didn’t like was that you should’ve kept the the old covering instead of giving it a new look.

Very informative...well laid out & easy to read
This book is EXCELLENT and one which I highly recommend. Yes...it's from 1992 but it all still stands true. The one thing about eating this type of food/juice and eating this way in general is that the underlying benefits and facts don't change. It certainly is not a fad but based on principles that stand the test of time. You can buy a book on this subject that is 50 years old or one that is brand new...they will say pretty much the same thing. This book is very well laid out tho' and is packed with a wealth of information. It points out the benefits of juicing and what each vegetable and fruit is good for...and how to drink them, along with some excellent recipes. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

A New-B to Jucing
I've been interested in juicing for a few years now, and was looking for some book that would give me mixtures of items to juice that would be applicaabe to certian "conditions" as well as being tasty.This is my first book on the subject of juicing, and I'm looking forward to have several more books on the subject. Frankly I probably wouldn't know a good juicing book from a bad one, but this book is strait forward with juicing recipes with out trying to impart lot of personal religious philosophy (some other "health food" type publications have) on you.Bottom line? I like the book, have found it helpful, and would easily recommend it to people who are interested in adding to their "good book" library.

It is a MUST HAVE BOOK
Very useful book!!!! I really recommend for everybody. This book contains 65 health problems` short description, dietary modification, nutrients that help, beneficial juices, suggested juicing recipes. The book cost about 5 pounds for me but gives much more HELP for HEALING my family and me. You don`t need to believe them just try the juices.Very quick delivery, the book in a good condition anyway.
