Buy Juice Fasting and Detoxification: Use the Healing Power of Fresh Juice to Feel Young and Look Great : The Fastest Way to Restore Your Health


An easy read, Meyerowitz provides a general understanding and explanation of water, juice, liquitarianism, breatharianism fasting. The benefits of each and suggested lengths for fasting. This allows the reader to fast at a rate and with the method (such as drinking only water during the fast vs drinking highly nutritional juices during the fast for example)that is comfortable to them. Although the author considers water fasting the "true fast", he presents options for readers who may not feel comfortable with ingesting only water during their fasting time.

I am a raw foodist and have fasted many times. I refer to my usual fast as a juice "feast" as I drink green juices throughout the fasting period and at a level of comfort knowing that I am nutritionally fed. That "feast" normally runs between 7 and 21 days depending on the season and my tasks at hand. I do however fast for shorter 3-7 day periods drinking only water. The water fast does as Meyerowitz guides, require some scheduling, quiet, lower activity and compassion for one's process of detoxification that occurs.

This book is probably not as appropriately titled as it could be as it reads more about different cleasing options in fasting as well as the benefits of "juicing", colon therapy, and the accessibility of high quality methods of extracting nutrition from vegetables and fruits with juice extraction machines.

I thought the author did a solid job of presenting the basics of cleansing and detoxification. This is not the book for someone who desires an indepth study or discussion of any one of these areas. This book is a quick educational guide for the fasting novice and a confirmation of alternative options available to the experienced fast participant.

The book's main strength is the clarification and offering of considerations that the reader can pick and choose to make that fasting period effective, beneficial and comfortable to them. With varied lifestyle demands, any reader can find at least one of these methods that will fit their schedule and pace demands.

As always in health, take it slowly, learn about your body and allow your fasting regimen to evolve at a pace that is beneficial, cleansing and compassionate to your entire wellness.
