THE

GIANT BOOK OF JUICING

Dear Reader,

Juicing has enjoyed a phenomenal rise in popularity over the past decades, and not just among fitness freaks or gym rats. With food and produce prices on the rise, and environmental concerns about food quality making new headlines every day, it only makes sense to find ways to maximize nutrition, minimize costs, and exercise quality control right from your own kitchen.

Whether you’re new to juicing or a longtime enthusiast, know that nothing beats juicing for flavor, freshness, and quality nutrition. It’s fast, easy, and fun. Use the recipes I’ve included here and feel free to experiment by adding fresh juice to smoothies, soups, and all sorts of frozen delights. Nature provides us with a huge variety of fruits and vegetables to choose from, and you can juice them in endless combinations. So, whip up some juice, raise a glass, and make a toast: To your health!
