Book Reviews of Raw Juices Can Save Your LifeBook Review: Quick, informative guide to juicing Summary: 4 Stars
I gave 4 and not 5 stars because the author did not enclose a recipe for hyperthyroidism and chose to focus on hypothyroidism only because "it's more common". Judging from the amount of text on the other condition, I beg to differ. However, anything with Brussel sprouts and broccoli will help manage a hyperthyroid condition.
Also some of the recipes reference vitamin mixtures sold exclusively by the author, who is Australian- so ordering may be a bit impractical for non-Australian readers. However, this book is a great reference on what juices are best for common conditions and even gives tips on which fruits and veggies complement each other on taste and which do not. All I need is a list of ingredients and I'm off to the market. The ingredient amounts also make enough juice for 3 servings a day- which is great because they recommend that the nutritional value of juices diminish after a few hours. By necessity, I make juice the night before for breakfast but the juice is still fresh.

Raw Juices Can Save Your Life: An A-Z Guide
I love this book because it explains what fruits and vegetables to use for different deseases and also gives the recipes. I tried the recipes and not only are they delicious but HEALTHY. I feel so good right and healthy right now and I don't feel run down and sick anymore. I am telling everyone about juicing and to buy this book. The title of this book is "Raw Juices Can Save Your Life" and believe me in reality it does save lives, it did mine.
Book Review: Fairly okay for juice recipes- doesn't go into depth Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this book, but it wasn't what I was expecting. I was hoping for explanations on what a certain fruit juice or vegetable juice has that makes it good for whatever ailment described, but I only saw a few of those in this book. Book is mostly juicing recipes without giving the reasoning behind the selection of vegetables or fruits for the condition they're supposed to help. I would've liked to see more in-depth explanations and also maybe some case studies of those who tried these juice recipes and were successful. I liked it, but didn't love it.
Book Review: Raw juices Can Save your Life Summary: 5 Stars
If you get this book with Cabot's other book - The Liver Cleansing Diet, you can make a dramatic difference in your health, and lose some weight too. The diet (actually it is a way of life) is not nearly as complicated as it seems in her book. Do not eat sugar, any milk products, or junky, chemical food. That plus juicing (with a great juicer, like the Breville) makes this a healthy way to eat and live. I have an autoimmune disease, and this diet has made my liver numbers normal for over a year. Even my doctor - now - thinks it has been helping.
Book Review: Hooked on Juicing! Summary: 5 Stars
I bought the book two months ago and now juice everyday. I have seen a remarkable improvement in my skin (acne prone) and my energy. I have told all my friends about the virtues of juicing. I am a believer in the health benefits of juicing. I think that Dr. Cabot does a wonderful job of giving you recipes and a glossary of benefits of certain types of fruits and vegetables. Her book was well-thought and very easy to read.
