For years nutritionists and the Government have urged us to eat more fruits and veg. Why? Because they are low in fat, and are important sources of essential vitamins, minerals & fibre. Yet many of us - even the most health conscious - still don't consume the recommended 5-10 servings a day! So what's the solution? For some people, the answer lies in vitamin and herbal supplements, both of which have enjoyed explosive sales growth over the past decade. But recent research suggests that whole, natural foods are still the best source of nutrients. And there's no easier or more effective way to add fresh fruits and vegetables to your diet than by juicing them. Now, with this book, there's a new and comprehensive source of information for anyone who wants to explore the health benefits of juicing: - a fully illustrated reference documenting the nutritional values and healing properties of over 100 fruits, vegetables and herbs. - a special section that addresses 60 common health conditions - with prescriptive advice for using specific juices.
- the juicing recipes themselves - over 250 of them, including flavour-filled juices, smoothies, tonics, bitters, coffee substitutes and healing teas. * 250 recipes, with metric measurements throughout, for 185 ingredients. * Robert Rose is a subsidiary imprint of Firefly Books Ltd, specialising in cookery and health titles.
