Heinerman's Encyclopedia of Healing Juices: From a Medical Anthropologist's Files, Here Are Nature's Own Healing Juices for Hundreds of Today's Most Common Health Problems

Great Product

I truly use this book as my juicing reference guide. At first I was disappointed in the structure of the book in that it was listed by vegetable and fruit names. I wanted the standard listing of recipes under the standard categories and boy am I glad this one is not like that. I have other juice books that give me enough recipes to cure anything that ails me. What this book provides is very good info about all the ingredients in a recipe and you can figure out subsitutions in an intelligent manner. This book is worth its weight in gold for that alone. I mean all of us just can't get into parsley now can we. Get this book it's worth every penny.

This book is very helpful if you are interested in healing naturally. There is a wealth of knowledge and a story on how he learned about the powers of healing through food. He also gives information about how the food was used in past histories; for instance, he gives several examples that I saw of food juices used in WWII and why they were no longer used after that (most are because medications for the issue became easily available). All around, I have poured over the pages and started using many of his recipes.

Having fun with this book. Haven't tried many recipes yet

I can't honestly say that I have tried everything or even most things in this book but I can say that it is a great book to have on hand. It has great ideas for all kinds of home remedies that I have never heard of. It is a wealth of valuable information.

I really love this book. It is informative, easy to read and follow, has detailed information and is very helpful. It is the best juicing book I have read, as far as information is concerned. I have not tried the recipes yet, but have shared it with some other people who also feel it is a great book.

Most of the book gives you information on specific fruits and veggies and what ailments they are supposed to alleviate. The basis for most of the claims are based on his travels to different parts of the world and from the "folk" medicine he came across. I don't think that folk medicine is completely without merit, but I also don't think it should be the total basis of recommendations for treating certain diseases. additionally, if want recipes for juicing, you'd better have a vitamix machine because all the recipes he provides are for use in that particular machine. I bought an omega juicer and all the recipes in the book are useless to me.

The book came fast and I bought it for my sister who was changing her diet as a result of her fighting her cancer that she's had for years. However, she passed away before being able to use the book. I just wish that I could have given it to her years ago.

Interesting read. Do not know if I shall make any of the juices but who knows.

Great books, looks easy to follow, with looks a great recipes inside, haven't actually made anything yet, but can't wait to get started!

it's good , after a few recipes i decided to do my own
