Customer Reviews

Regaining part of my youth. Refreshingly WOW

Wish we had a jamba Juice store nearby, I'd visit it often. Would like some more information about the vita ingrediants in the book. Never knew Peanut Butter, Mango, Banana, Peaches, Orange Sorbet and crushed ice could taste so good .

Different than I was expecting - but a wonderful book!

I honestly picked this one up because I just wanted some good smoothie recipes. I wasn't expecting to get a comprehensive 21 day life changing health plan or a brief history of Jamba Juice. I might not have bought it if I had known that was what more than half the book contained. Good thing I didn't know that because I think the book was well worth the price. There are great recipes in it like I was hoping. Also, the lifestyle advice and the 21 day plan are all very practical and doable and simply focus on getting more produce & fiber in your life and exercising more. Much more sound "diet" advice than everything else out there right now. A good read and a fun recipe book that is motivating!

A Tasty Read

I absolutely looved this book, I have purchased several copies for friends and family. It is full of easy-to-read important health info (not usually my favorite reading subject) and practical tips for staying (or getting) healthy, becoming energized, and de-stressing! The recipes are simple and delicious, with a wide variety of flavors; with a family of five, this was especially helpful. I have been able to sneak my children?s vitamin and mineral supplements into their morning smoothies (a tip I had read in an article written by Dr. Oz regarding his own children). I hope to read more work by these authors in the future, until then I intend to keep my family Jamba Juicing at home- Thanks!

Best book I've read in a long time. A must for all.

Jamba Juice Power is a must read. I am forty years old and the last program I tried was Dr. Phil's, to no avail. This book changed everything. I learned that well being is not just physical but emotional and spiritual also. The recipes were realistic and my family loved them. The authors touched on many great tips that perhaps we all know are correct, just hard to put into practice. This was also made easy to digest by a 21 day program that was easy to follow. (Not a bunch of prepacked food to buy, meetings to attend and money to spend). After I write this review I plan to write the publisher and give a thank you for a book that every person should read.

Informative at any level

Whether a novice or a nutrition guru, after reading this fun and energetic book, you will undoubtedly learn something about yourself and about the world of food around you. Mr. Perron and Mr. Dembecki have given us an easy-to-read, easier-to-understand book that "blends" the daunting subject of nutritional science with common sense, offering the reader information everyone should know about the food they choose to eat, and a simple and relatively short ?21 Day? plan to begin acting on this new information. Jamba Juice Power is not new diet book. It does offer many smoothie recipes, so many, in fact, that I thought it might also be called a cookbook of sorts. But what would you expect from the man who built more than 350 (and counting) smoothie stores across America? Jamba Juice Power is a practical approach to understanding the importance of what we feed our bodies with while presenting to the reader a no-nonsense plan to see for themselves how small adjustments in their daily diet and daily routines can drastically improve energy, enthusiasm and overall wellbeing. Read this book if you are a daily visitor to Jamba Juice or have never even seen a Jamba Juice store, it will mean a great deal to both of you.
