If you are looking for a quick breakfast, a satisfying snack, a concentrate of vitamins and minerals, this book is for you. 'Smoothies and Juices' is filled with recipes for fruit and vegetable based drinks and also protein-based delights to suit your dietary needs. How is it possible to lose weight with smoothies and juices? Although almost all fruits and vegetables are composed of more than 90% water and have fewer calories, if they are processed into juices, they can replace a meal of as much as 500?600 calories. What is more, in various combinations, juices and smoothies can complete the daily diet thanks to the fibre and nutrients they provide, the satisfaction they provide and their ability to take the edge off the hunger that often accompanies weight-loss or detox diets. This book presents 88 quick, fresh, and colourful recipes and will prove to be an indispensable companion.
