What we didn’t like so much?
- No specific instructions about the ingredients; a ‘bunch’ of this and a ‘handful’ of that can be confusing if you don’t have some juicing experience already – but of course you learn
- Binding quality is not as good as you may like; so be gentle with the book or it might come apart
- If you want to keep a note of how many calories and nutrients you’re consuming, the book doesn’t focus on this
