2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Juicing is definetely a great way of being healthy. Dr Norman Walker lived to be over 110 yrs old and juiced every day. This book is a simple read and gives easy and practical advice into why, how & what to juice.
Highly recommended if you want to live a long, healthy & happy life!
 Very old fake-scientific garbage January 26, 2007

The guy uses his blender to break molecules and free the juice! See? One's tempted to quote forever from this laughable treatise, so funny it is, but... verbum sat sapienti. Idiots will buy anything, but you've been warned.
-------------------------------------------------
PS. OK, I can't resist -- a few quotes (capitalization preserved; in no particular order, just read the bits -- this must be enough):
"It has only been within the past two Centuries that people generally awakened to the realization ... the manner in which the body utilises the minerals and Vitamins comprising such food. ... The results ... have been almost phenomenal the World over, particularly in the area of Juice Therapy. ... Even though such fibers reach the Colon in microscopic ... take the best of what IS available and Praise the Lord for what you CAN get. ... be sure to pick the freshest ... buying your vegetables for Salads or making your Juices."
"Life as LIFE cannot be explained, so we describe enzymes as a Cosmic Energy Principle or vibration which promotes a chemical action ... cooked foods ... [do not] have the power to regenerate the atoms which furnish the life force to our body. ... surprisingly large percentage of the atoms making up the nourishment ... triturate the vegetables ... thereby splitting open the interstices of the cells of the fibers, liberating the atoms and molecules."
"I have found that the toxic sprays are retianed in the fibers ... and are not present in the fiber-free juices. ... Our Creator gave food both as nourishment and as medicine. ... just consider how much more concetnrated than the juices are the following items used as food: soy bean and soy bean flour are 870% more concentrated that carrot juice and 940% more than celery juice. Popcorn is 2100% more concentrated than carrot juice and 2300% more than celery juice. White sugar in 4200% more concentrated that carrot juice and 4600% more than celery juice. "
"When the juice is incompletely extracted from the vegetable or fruit, they are in the form of vital organic water ... their effective power is ... diminished due to the absence of the vitamins and enzymes which are left behind in the fiber and the pulp. ... pesticides and sprays ... it is FIBERS that collect these toxins. The enzymes, atoms and molecules are allergic to them. ... our Blessings have been multiplied beyond what we think we deserve, besides having the vibrations of our food raised to their highest nutritional point. It is the Hand of the Almighty God that guides us in our discoveries. We pass them on to you."

I could simply retype the whole book here, but the small portions above should suffice to show you what goes one in this book. It was originally published in 1938 -- a while ago, but still, 1938 isn't 1638. The author signs his name as D. Sc., which I take to mean "doctor of science". What efin science was this half-literate impostor a doctor of? Nothing comes to mind. Anyway, it's 2007 now. There are mountains of real scientifically based health and nutrition books; written by real scientists; in standard English; based on real, verifiable, current scientific research. In other words, there is no reason whatsoever to pollute your mind with Mr Walker's rubbish. And there's never been, come to think of it.
Otoh, collectors of pseudo-scientific garbage may want to get this book for its historic and curio values. I have never seen anything quite like it; it reads like a 16-century alchemy manual.

It was suggest to me to buy this book when I purchased my first juicer. I love this book. I have read it over and over and enjoy the carrots with 1 stalk of celery juiced daily. I wish I could enjoy fresh juice during the day, but you can't juice at work! My skin, hair and overall health has improved since I started juicing. I took this one step further and bought his other book, Pure & Simple Natural Weight Control, which talks about juicing and raw foods. It give such insight of how the body digests food, and make you want to eat for nurishment. I recently read a article on raw food diet that names Mr. Walker and said he died at 118 from a accident. You won't be dissapointed with anything Mr. Walker has written.

Fruit juices? September 27, 2004
22 out of 22 found this review helpful
The title says fruit juices, but he hardly mentions them in this book! Well, i guess he preferred to eat them since they digest easier than veggies. He says enzymes can be preserved at any desired low temperature without loss, which i didn't know. He also says that the sprays and pesticides are retained in the fiber, not the juice! He says a lot of good things about raw goats milk, and apple cider vinegar. Also says that the sea & ocean are full of minerals, so you should take sea-salt, kelp, and dulse. And if you wanna eat flesh, choose fish! And take a look in the ailments list, he lists nymphomania! Great book.
