I was impressed by how delightfully and interestingly different this recipe book was. It offers a change of pace as some of the recipes are extremely creative. First being the recipe for a fermented juice called Kombucha. Kombucha is a concoction made of live bacteria and yeast and it's becoming all the rage among the health-seeking crowd. The recipe is simple enough and the benefits are fantastic, such as healthier skin, weight loss, clearing up acne, and more. The Kombucha recipe is a worth considering.Another unusual but delightful fermented juice recipe is the Coconut Yogurt. This is easy and only takes 24 hours in the fridge before ready to be consumed. And yes, there is more to this recipe book than just fermented drinks. An excellent selection of recipes for salads, wraps, juices, smoothies, dressings, herbal teas and more. The wraps are just as interesting as the other recipes with names like “Slap Your Granny” and “Tummy Tucker” While most of the ingredients are items you can get anywhere, (he lists 88 different ingredients in the back of the book) Kevin has used extraordinary imagination in creating some delicious recipes.All in all, I found this recipe book to be informative and has proven to be an excellent guide for, among other things, improving my energy levels. With this book of recipes, it’s possible to give your body a whole new level of total nourishment using organic plants. The tips are great too, I loved the one on soaking nuts in water for 6 hours prior to eating to help increase the intake of the valuable nutrients that otherwise might be lost.I found the unique approach that Kevin Kerr takes with this book to be a refreshing departure from the run-of-the-mill recipe books out there and one that is more than welcomed in my ever growing library.
