Nutritional health expert Natalie Savona improves on her 500,000-copy
selling Big Book of Juices & Smoothies, with this even bigger book of
recipes guaranteed to boost your health and vitality - a comprehensive
introduction to juicing.
The Big Book of Juices is a new edition of Natalie Savona's classic
title, now with even more juices and smoothies and more than 250
photographs. It is founded on two basic principles. First, that juicing
is easy if we simply adopt the habit of it; and second, that juicing
every day is a delicious way to get healthy and stay healthy.
Following a comprehensive introduction to juicing, 405 different juice
and smoothie blends are divided up into three central chapters: Making
Juices; Making Smoothies; and Making Quenchers (juices with a little
added something, such as soda water, herbs or spices). Every blend is
given an at-a-glance nutrient profile (listing vitamins, minerals and
phytonutrients), and a star rating on its merits as an energy- and
immune-booster, a detoxer, and a tonic for the skin.
The recipes can be sourced in several ways: by fruit or vegetable of
choice (the chapters are organized by main ingredient); by health
benefit (an alphabetical chart lists approximately 50 common ailments or
disorders, and cross-references them to the juices that will help
overcome them); and by nutrient (a list is given of all the major
vitamin and mineral nutrients, each with cross-references to the
relevant recipes in the book).
The last chapter - a juicing reference section - includes the nutrient
and ailment charts as well as suggested juice courses for detoxing and
immunity boosting, making this the most practical and comprehensive
juice book on the market.
