0

Have you ever said a little pray to help you lose a few pounds? Your prayers may have been answered in the book The Juicing Bible by Pat Crocker. If you've ever considered doing a juice fast, The Juicing Bible, which won Best in the World in the nutrition category in Perigueux France, can help you get started.

By adding green tea or green tea powder to your juice you will get the healing benefits of green tea plus the thermogenesis (calorie burn) properties, increase your metabolism and help promote the detoxification process.

If you want to jump start your diet, lose a quick few pounds and give your body a much needed digestive rest and detoxification, The Juice Bible has 100 recipes to make it so. From vegetable juices to cleansers to roughies, going on a juicing cleanse will help you melt away the pounds and restore your health.

Juicing Bible

Doesn't it seem impossible and maybe a little boring to get those
five servings of vegetables and three serving of fruit every day?

Juicing makes it not only possible but tasty too. But better still, you'll be tapping into the key to disease prevention and detoxification with the magic of phytochemicals.

Phytochemicals are chemical compounds in plants that are known cancer fighters. Sadly, we spend millions on drug research and take millions of dollars worth of prescription medicines when the true medicine may be in the lowly tomato or apple.

If you're like most Americans you eat just 1-1/2 servings of
vegetables and no fruit at all on an average day!

Unfortunately, this absence of life giving food doesn't mean you're not stuffing yourself with many health robbers such as high fats and high glycemic carbohydrates. Worse, this stuffing requires your digestive system to be constantly working to breakdown and eliminate the onslaught of high calorie but not necessarily high quality food. Little time is left for cleansing and detoxification.

A day or two on a juice detoxification diet will change
the way you feel and look.

Increase your energy, brighten your complexion, improve your mental functioning, relieve aches pains, decrease allergy symptoms and lighten up your mood by adding green tea to your juice fast.

Signs that you are quite toxic include lightheadedness, headaches, nausea and weakness or exhaustion. Juice fasts are much healthier than water fasts but check with your doctor before juice fasting for more than one day or if you have diabetes.

Here are some recipes to get you started:

With fasting, come really bad breath and
the taste of a body
in a stage of detox.
This is a great detoxifier to drink throughout the day.
