Drink Your Troubles Away with Raw Juice Therapy

I am a traditionalist; thus, I like this book. Nothing fancy, just good information and recipes. This is an "olde but goodie." I used it back in the 70's, lost it when I moved. I bought again at some garage sale and bought it again on Amazon. Back in the day we didn't mix a lot of fruits with vegetables and I like that concept. I still recommend this book. I particularly like the one recipe that I call the "cure all" - spinach, carrots, parsley and celery. I do't remember what the book said it was good for but, it has worked wonders for me.

First off, the book's last republish was 1991.The cover price of the paperback is $3.95, so everyone should stay away from the above forty dollar version.The book has 126 pages of text, then 50 pages of appendix and index, then closes out with around 30 pages of "new"-at-the-time data.There are break downs of "ailments" and recipes for relieving their symptoms. There are a lot of anecdotal statments on what plants help what condition.Overall, I like the recipes and some of the other information is still valid so the book is useful, not by any measure authoratative or essential. It is a very slightly educational read.Other than the outdated information the one thing that bugs me in my copy is the type setting of the book varies greatly throughout. Quotes starting the chapters are too small, tables throughout vary in fontsize and style.I feel it is worth what I paid as a very mildly used copy...but anything higher than the $3.95 for the paperback is not a deal.

The author and his father were disciples of Arnold Ehret. The book has a wealth of information on nutrition.

Look forward to using some of the tried and true ways of bettering my health. It may be an older reference work, but here's to John Lust, a true pioneer.

Good book to improve your health! Juicing, Juicing, Juicing! That's how to drink all your troubles away!!!!

I love this book and bought 2 more to give to friends who are intested in juicing. Problems caused by the lack of minerals and plant food sources. It's a wonderful book for the serious juicer.

This was for a friend. I have had one for a long time. Used many ideas there.. They are helpful as well as healthy.Good for a quick guide. Just tailor it to your own health.

Just got book, have done a few recipes and am impressed.Think it will be one I use for years to come.

Although written some years ago it really is a brilliant book and even more relevant to health and living in our present day.
