Erin Quon - The Juice Solution: More than 90 Feel-good Recipes to Energize, Fuel, Detoxify, & Protect

Whether youve never juiced before or like to do juice cleanses regularly, turn the page to discover all the tips, tricks, and knowledge you need. Theres so much to love about juicingits healthful, hydrating, energizing, and the flavor combinations are endless. Its the proverbial golden ticket to fueling your body with mouth-watering, tasty, healthy nutrients. Juicing came into our lives in different ways (Erin was inspired by friends who juiced and Briana, a juicer for over 6 years, found that juicing complemented her raw lifestyle). Once we experienced the benefits in these vitamin-loaded juices, we were hooked! When we realized how much we were spending on bottled juices, which can sometimes contain fillers, like high-moisture lettuce or excess water, we knew it was time to start making juices at home. Electric juicers seemed pricey at first, until we realized we were not just investing in the machine, but also a healthy lifestyle.

People ask us why we juice, and the simplest answer is that its just part of our lifestyle. (For Erin, her mornings begin with juicing for her family: anything from simple, fresh orange juice to kale and beet concoctions. For Briana, juicing is part of her daily schedule: enjoyed in the morning, after a work out, or before a client meeting.) Both of our jobs require a lot of time on our feet, and juicing helps keep us hydrated and energized for long, taxing workdays. It also helps us stay energized throughout the day, so that we can give 100 percent to all our clients. But juicing isnt just a solution for energyits a simple way to reboot our bodies and build our immune systems while on the run. Were so excited to share the recipes in this book, because they replenish your body with vitamins and minerals, rehydrate you, and taste delicious.

Weve learned that a few bucks at the farmers market goes a long way in providing a weeks worth of juices. In fact, juicing at home, as opposed to buying the bottled stuff, gets you double for your money: You not only get a delicious juice, but you also get the dehydrated fiber, or pulp, thats left behind. Weve discovered so many great uses for it: We use vegetable fiber for the base of stocks or in muffins; we sprinkle nut fiber over salads or use it in cookies; we add fruit and vegetable fiber to dog food; and many other ideas. We hope youll feel inspired by the enticing juices within this book. We hand-selected our favorite juice recipesthe same ones we drink everyday to keep us healthy, energized, and hydrated through long days of personal training and cookingfor you to enjoy at home. Even though weve included over 90 recipes, we encourage you to keep experimentingyoull be surprised at how good even the wildest of combinations can taste.

The beauty of the juicing lifestyle is that you cant go wrong: at the end of the day, youve hydrated your body with essential nutrients, and thats whats important.
