Wonderful - Useful & Delicious Recipes

After spending one of the most eye-opening and amazing weeks of my life at Susana's We Care Spa in California, this book keeps me going daily with recipes, ideas, motivations, and is a constant tangible reminder of that week. I can't wait to go back, after a week learning about detox and clarifying the skin & body inside and out, this book is a must have for anyone interested in total body wellness, whole foods, and a long & healthy life.

great recipe ideas for raw food

This book has really inspired me and my daughter to eat more raw food on a daily basis. We really notice our energy levels improving. The book outlines a detoxification semi-fast that we were able to do for two days. The book recommends a week. Some of it is a little too difficult for those of us who have 9-5 jobs and families, but in general the suggestions are easy to follow and have really quick pay-offs: more energy, no circles under the eyes, no water retention, belly gets flatter quickly, and skin clears up! It's no wonder that a lot of actresses go to the author's spa regularly! Another good thing about the book is that it gives smoothies and simple recipes that my 11 year old can easily make. It puts everything together into a plan that works and has lots of suggestions for how to modify the plan based on practicalities.

Better detailed explanations than most

This is one of the better books on detoxification. Most others give various recipes and regimens to accomplish some form of detoxification without providing sufficient background information to understand how it is supposed to work and why. The author of this book starts with why you should detoxify, the five principles of balanced health, and the seven most important steps. People are much more likely to follow through when they know what to expect and understand why they are doing it. Written in an easy-to-read style the author explains concepts very clearly without introducing any unnecessary complications. Detox and Revitalize is highly recommended and especially so for those new to detoxification who want to gain a broad understanding of the purpose and process.

An inspiring guide to detoxification

Susana L. Belen's Detox and Revitalise is easy to read and has a wealth of information in it regarding diet, nutrition, excercise, detoxification, juicing, fasting, and stress management-to name just a few. She also has many suggestions for a balanced diet and lifestyle to increase ones overall health and well being. I am already involved in alternative health and health foods and I still found many useful ideas. Ironically, I was given this book as a gift the day I bought a take-away dinner for friends. Afterwards we all felt sick and lacking in energy- a timely reminder while reading about the benefits of eating well and detoxification!!
