The easiest juice receipe book ever!! February 19, 2008 The layout of the book and its receipes are so easy and delicious. There is a great variety of fruits and vegetables used here and the combinations are delicious. Beware as the quantities made are more than enough for 2. Highly recommended for juice and smoothie fanatics.

It is the first time I actually write a review but this book is well worth doing it.
This book is one of the best smoothie / juice recipe books I have seen so far. VERY easy to follow, all nutritions are stated for each recipe and its all sorted by main ingredient...
Highly recommended ... And not to mention the price - I wouldn't mind paying double the price to be honest.
Best juice book I have seen August 27, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have just started getting into juicing and of the recent books I have bought on the subject this is by far the best. The recipes are simple and you don't need alot of ingredients. Also it has an easy find tab system which is helpful. For anyone that has started juicing or is thinking of it, I highly recomend it.
Clarity, convenience and crammed with original ideas. April 14, 2007 18 out of 18 found this review helpful
After investing in a blender and realising most Smoothie ideas asked for 'coconut flavoured ice-cream' and 'vanilla flavoured soy milk', both of which i would not know where to start in finding them at my supermarket. I decided I would find a book.
This book is practical in the sense, it gives you smoothie ideas incorporating household fruits, like the standard- apples, bananas and pears. Then for the more adventurous, they add a section for vegetable smoothies - mixing celery with strawberries and such like to produce an amicable drink.
What i find, works in favour of Natalie Savona (the author) is the excess of information she provides around these recipes, she tells you the benefit of each fruit, vegetable and herb involved and how to prepare it for a blender, and below each recipe she gives the smoothie a rating out of five in 5 categories (detox..immunity..digestion..skin and energy). As a waist-watching, sport-enthusiast such as myself this is great, because I can drink something with dates in it knowing i'm doing myself the world of good.
The index at the back, lists an a-z of illness, aches and pains and a page reference to the perfect smoothie and advice on which foods to eat. There's suggestions for sunburn, stress even memory problems!
If you're looking to lose weight (or prevent memory problems) and you're prepared to fork out for a bit more fruit than usual, or you want a nice refresher drink for your guests, this book is essential for you and your kitchen.
