Start drinking JUICE

In my quest to optimize my health, I found a book which was really an old publication that is continuously published, entitled MAKE YOUR JUICER YOUR DRUG STORE by Dr. Laura Newman. This was a subsequent publication to Make Your Garden Your Drug Store.

In this 191 page book, the doctor advocates fresh raw fruit and vegetable juices as nature's lifeline. She states that we must co-operate with nature in keeping our bodies clean and healthy as all the vitamins and minerals are found in fruit, vegetables, nuts, whole grains and sunshine. I am sharing this with you as I found great benefits in some of the juice recipes that were also included in this book.
