Introduction
The quality of your life begins with the quality of the foods that sustain it. The surest path to a healthier, more energetic, and disease-free lifestyle begins with a diet rich in natural foods such as whole grains, legumes, fruits and vegetables. Especially important on this path to health are fresh fruits and vegetable juices. Fresh juices provide the proteins, carbohydrates, essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals and other food factors that are vital to your health.
The advantages of increased energy, strengthened immunity, reduced risk of disease, strong bones, and the glowing complexion that is the evidence of great health can all be yours when fresh fruit and vegetable juices play a key role in your daily diet.
Background Data:
The first edition of The Complete Book of Juicing was published in 1992 and has been referred to as the definitive bible of the raw juice movement. This encyclopedic book offered over 150 fresh juice recipes along with guidelines for juice cleanses, juice as medicine, juicing for weight loss, and juicing to boost immune function–particularly for cancer patients.
The book also included comprehensive information on the nutritional benefits of various fruits and vegetables, the healing powers of raw juice, and answers to common questions and misconceptions about juicing and raw foods.
New Data:
There has been a virtual explosion of scientific documentation on the healing power of fresh fruit and vegetable juices since 1992. Whether a person is a long-term juice fanatic, or someone who is just getting started on a self-care routine using raw juice, the revised and updated, second edition of The Complete Book of Juicing provides the information and inspiration on how to get the most out of your juicer. And, speaking of juicers, there are a lot of new juicers on the marketplace. In the 2nd edition of TCBOJ, there is a chapter covering the various types of juicers, how they differ, and the pros and cons with each method and model.
Commentary:
Working on revising The Complete Book of Juicing was truly a labor of love. With all of the new information on the medicinal aspects of fruits and vegetables that have been discovered over the past 20 years, the book is almost entirely new. I also more than doubled the number of recipes and created an extensive guide to using fresh juice as medicine.
In this day and age we have a tendency to fall in love with technology, but the greatest technology in the universe is not the latest iPhone or other gadget, but rather it is nature. And, it is through food that we commune with nature on a daily basis. My book, The Complete Book of Juicing, was written to serve as a guide to help you get plugged into the best from this advanced technology.
