 Juice Fasting March 11, 2009
L. Banks
This was a gift for my friend who is fond of juicing. She does not want to take the blood pressure medicine perscribed to her so she is trying to control it through diet. She is thrilled with this book. So I suppoose I would have to say if you are into juicing, this is a good book to get.
 A great book on fasting, highly recommend January 16, 2009

This is my favorite book on fasting and I have read about a dozen of them . Whenever I fast I always dig it out and read a few chapters. I love his high-energy style - reminiscent of the old fire-and-brimstone preachers. Reading it always increases my enthusiasm for fasting and helps solidify my resolve to stay on the fast. I have bought two copies of this book during my lifetime and they both have worn out from using them so much. I have just ordered another one from Amazon.
I follow the book's recommended schedule of fasting for up to 10 days every 3 months. I have been on this regimen for over 20 years. I must say it is easier fasting now then when I first started. I believe the body, especially the liver, adjusts to fasting and actually looks forward to it and lets you know when it's time. I am currently on the third day of my winter fast and am experiencing absolutely no hunger whatsoever.
The book recommends fasting using water only but I always to a combination of juice fasting and water fasting where several days of juice fasting bookend several days of water fasting. I find this to be easier on the body.
Paul Bragg was a true pioneer and I will forever be indebted to him for the path he blazed for us. Thanks Paul!

Yes, some of the medical information in this book might be a little outdated, but it was written in 1971! Overall, though, this book is still a great guide for anybody who wants to try juice fasting to improve their health or lose weight. I absolutely love the step-by-step guides for preparing yourself for fasting, how to start the fast, what to do during each fasting day, and how to break the fast. The instructions are clear and easy to follow, like a check list you can follow along. The author also includes suggestions of juices that are best for certain medical conditions. Also included are the recipes for the vegetable broth (consumed during fasting) and the Excelsior drink (consumed during the first few days after you stop fasting). Many years ago, I fasted at a health spa in Europe, and the fasting I did there is very similar as Dr. Airola describes it in his book. However, when I fasted in Europe, they did not make me use an enema every single day. I'm wondering if that's a little excessive. That's the only reason I didn't give this book 5 stars. Other than that, it's great.
love it!!! March 29, 2006

I love this book I am 21 and i was slightly over weight, I had migranes, and i was starting to get acne (i know at 21 how sad) this has now ended beecause of my fasts. I am not saying that this will happen to you but a juice fast will make you stronger and have more energy. If you need to detox or anything this book gives you step by step instructions about how to do the fast and break it. The only thing that this book does not have is actual juice Recipes i would get the juice man's book for that.

I know from personal experience, after following word for word Dr. Airola's Juice Fasting advice, what kind of perfect health can be attained. I even had a rigorous medical screening afterwards(to qualify for a certain job) that proved I was in optimal health. Where before I was 100 pounds overweight had thyroid disease and no energy, what-so-ever. My thyroid disease was gone, my energy and vitality through the roof and my doctor told me I had the best Triglycerides he'd ever seen.
Don't jump into Juice Fasting until you read this book. I own many Juice Fasting books, and this one is by far, the best. :)
