Review: I found the book clearly and well written.
It does exactly what it says on the cover.

I have learnt from the book, I have reviewed over 50
health books and this is the only one that I could give
five stars to.

Nobody reading this is going to hurt themselves, the advice given is excellent, and has already after ju7st 2 weeks benefitted greatly 3 patients here.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Very disappointed with it - didn't give good plans
Review: It's amazing how nutrition is so important in our lives. The dietary changes that the author support will really cleanse your body and Detox it. this is a book that is really worth to read; it's going to make a "life" of difference.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Detox for everyone
Review: This book presents an easy to follow guide to beginning a simple detox diet and proceeding further into juice or water fasting, should you desire. Very few special purchases are needed to follow the plan. The purchase of fresh fruits and vegetables are the main expense. Vitamins and supplements are listed that may be of benefit, but they are not a necessity. Herbs are briefly touched on. If you are interested in incorporating herbs in your plan you will need to seek an additional resource.

There are separate chapters on nicotine, caffeine, drug, sugar and alcohol withdrawal and detox plans and supplements discussed for each. Physical effects of using each of these products are described in a rational manner without preaching.

It is a sensible guide to beginning a new journey to healthier eating. I found the plan easy enough to follow without feeling deprived. The outline to transition into fasting will guide me when I am ready.

This is a small book, but surprisingly complete. There is a list of resources for in-patient detox centers as well as support groups for specific problems (drug abuse, etc.)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: CLEAN UP!
Review: Using too much of seemingly innocuous substances like coffee, tea and sugar can be addictive and may cause severe health problems over the long term. These include blood pressure abnormalities, mood disorders, headaches and fatigue.

The New Detox Diet is an informative practical guide on how to cleanse the body of the above substances, nicotine, alcohol and others in the most natural way. The book provides great recipes and helpful information on counteracting the side effects of detoxification, which can often manifest in extreme discomfort.

The detox programmes are presented in detail and includes pitfalls to watch out for. Based on the body's own healing processes, the approach is subtle and holistic, avoiding drastic cold-turkey methods. The various harmful items are treated chapter by chapter, and at the end of each the most relevant information for that particular substance is repeated in short form.

I found the author's suggestions of alternatives for the above substances and his tips for a healthier lifestyle quite positive and sensible. The New Detox Diet would be a worthy addition to your bookshelf if you wish to take responsibility for your own health.
