This book contains excellent information that women will particularly find beneficial.  The author has a unique way of explaining the importance of “superfoods” and how we can benefit by incorporating them into our daily diet and includes a listing of the important ones.  In addition, even though the reader  may have all heard of antioxidants, oxidation and free radicals in the past, the description and idioms used to explain the role of each in this book, has a way of driving the  point home like no other.After reading a number of books on health food, nutrition ,  healing and the like, I considered myself somewhat well versed in this area.  However, the amount of information that I learned from this particular book has greatly increased my knowledge in this area.  Specifically, I now realize I only really knew things a general level, whereas the number of details I learned and became aware of through this book can now greatly enhance the nutritional content obtained from certain foods.  As an example, I now realize the importance of obtaining and using a mortar and pestle for the herbs and spices I enjoy growing.It should be noted that the author is not advocating juicing as a diet method in and of itself, and explains the dangers associated with long term juice fasts.  Having said that, the author does provide a detailed explanation of the many benefits  juicing can provide, if done properly.  In addition, this book provides excellent information and explains the technical aspects of juicers, in order to equip the reader with the ability of purchasing  the best juicer they are able to afford.This book concludes with a long list of superfoods and a ton on the qualifications of each, and as an added bonus, a number of recipes  have also been provided.
