This is an excellent book to follow to do what people call juice fasting. I won't get into the language argument of using the term fasting with juicing because everyone knows what you mean. What the good Dr. has here is an excellent way for an individual to gain control of their health. As a by product you will effortless lose weight and detoxify at the same time. I can't stress the detox benefits enough as you will simply be amazed at what happens to your body as you continuously use the program. Even if you do it once or twice a year, once a week or whatever you will always realize benefits. The program is so very flexible and you shouldn't be bored. The first few times I followed the book to the letter of the law and then I re-read it and found that there were alternatives given that I had glossed over. These alternatives make this a very flexible and easy to do routine. This is the no excuse way of keeping yourself healthy.
