User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Fasting
Good book for reviewing reasons to fast including health benefits and side effects. Good recipes to follow, and if you are not going to juice, just eat the ingrediants in the recipes: carrots, apples, oranges, ginger, spinach. All great foods for your body. Good reference book.
5 Stars Juice Fasting Bible
Author is right - it is a juicer’s bible. Wonderful recipes and how to juice. The easy way to lose weight!
4 Stars Is it Feast or Fast?
Although the author chose to call this book “Juice Fasting” I would have called it “Juice Feasting” as this is really about a temporary dietary session of only drinking highly nutritionally dense juices versus the traditional form of fasting.
This is really a detoxifying, nutrient rich approach to cleansing your body and giving it a digestive break at the same time. Allowing your body to flush toxins without the need for starvation and nutrient deprivation. The chapters are listed above in the first review. Anyone new to fasting might want to consider starting with this approach.
Some general comments on colonics, saunas, how to hold your fast are added as well as some basic recipes to guide you effortlessly (for the most part) into your juice “feast” fast.
4 Stars Good resource, but is lacking in instructions
This book is a great resource for a first time faster. I like the fact that it was published in 2007, so all the information given in this book should be pretty up to date. It tells you everything you need to know about the benefits of juice fasting, what to expect during the detoxing process, what fruits and vegetables are best for juice fasting and their health benefits, juice fasting safety and preparation, what to expect psychologically during fasting, and I absolutely love the juice recipes. What this book is lacking are clear step-by-step instructions to take you through the fasting preparation, the fasting itself, and the breaking of fasting. It’s all a bit vague and leaves you slightly confused. For this reason, I suggest this book in combination with Dr. Paavo Airola’s “Juice Fasting: The Age-old way to a New you!”, a great book with step-by-step instructions, and you should have all the resources you need for a successful fast.
Here is the table of contents:
1. Benefits of a Juice Fast
2. Detoxing for Greater Health
3. Best Fruits and Vegetables for Juicing
4. Juice Fasting Safety and Preparation
5. Choose a Program for Your Fast
6. Handling Your Fast Well
7. Glorious Juice Recipes

9. Testimonials
10. About the author
