Quick facts:

  • Our rating: 9/10
  • Title: Juicing, Fasting, and Detoxing for Life
  • Author: Cherie Calbom
  • Pages: 368
  • Date published: July 30, 2008
  • Category: Juicing Books

While most other juicing books primarily focus on fruit juices, the Juicing, Fasting, and Detoxing for Life by Cherie Calbom features juices, smoothies and soups made from vegetables. This handy guide helps detoxify your body from toxins that accumulate in the body due to emotional and mental unrest. There are also some recipes that can be insanely useful in case you are fasting or detoxifying your body.

The best thing about this book is that it’s written by a certified and experienced nutritionist, so you can try anything mentioned in it without fearing nasty consequences. The professional approach and conclusive guidelines show that the writer knows her stuff.  Though the book is packed with information, yet it’s very easy to understand and follow.

Meet the author of the book

Juicing, Fasting, and Detoxing for Life is written by Cherie Calbom with the collaboration of her husband John Calbom. As mentioned earlier, Cherie is a qualified and skilled practitioner, and has dozens of other books, including the bestseller The Juice Lady’s Guide To Juicing for Health, to her credit.

Cherie turned to whole foods and juices when her own health was declining very quickly. She was astonished at the results of the experiments with her diet. She then went to Bastyr University and earned the Master of Science degree in whole foods nutrition.
