Blissful Detox

Webmaster — Sun, 31 May 2009 20:24:08 +0000

Detox doesn’t have to mean deprivation; it can be delicious. Once cooks and the health-conscious complete a simple questionnaire to determine their body’s thermal nature (hot, cold, or neutral), the work of cooking and eating to dispel toxins and restore balance can begin. Delicious recipes are grouped by the thermal nature of the food and arranged by course to make menu-building a breeze. More than 100 culinary creations are simple yet so tasty, cooks and detoxers won’t know they’re behaving.

4 Stars Detoxing ignorance
After years of out of the box and restaurant meals I was blessed with a gag Christmas gift of Blissful Detox. The boyfriend and I immediately decided to try it out, and were pleasantly surprised to find that the recipes are quick, tasteful and truly healthy.

While the directions have a tendency to be vague, they are fairly intuitive. Close your eyes, sprinkle the spices, and be adventurous.

All the recipes are suppose to feed 2, but in some cases they feed more. Several recipes taste even better after a day as left overs. And with in a week you will begin to feel and see the difference in your body and skin. I recommend this to anyone who is afraid of bland “health-food” diets. The recipes are exciting and flavorful, and you will soon find yourself being creative with the ingredients and what you can do with them

5 Stars A Keeper
This book takes the guess work out of detoxing and the recipes are straighforward (and taste great, too!). We used a lot of the recipes after we had finished detoxing. Carol Vorderman is straight talking and personable. The book is easy to read, easy to follow and this is a book you’ll go back to again and again.

5 Stars Life-changing Diet
This has got to be the best diet on earth. The recipes are simple and all dietary aspects and restrictions are explained well. I lost 14 pounds in a relatively easy few weeks. I have recommended this to every woman I know who wants to drop a dress size or two. As a benefit (or maybe this should be the main purpose) I felt healthy for the first time in years. If you buy only one diet book ever, make it this one.

The Seasonal Detox Diet Remedies from the Ancient Cookfire

A dynamic program for using healing fasts to detoxify, tone, and restore the body for optimum energy and performance.
* Includes vegetarian recipes designed around seasonal changes and geared toward individual health concerns.
* Enables the body to detoxify from daily exposure to chemicals, additives, and pesticides.
* Increases energy levels, aids overall digestion and weight loss, revitalizes the skin, and cleanses the internal organs.
* Revised Edition of The Ancient Cookfire

A unique blend of dietary world wisdom, The Seasonal Detox Diet provides readers with a dynamic program for using healing fasts to detoxify, tone, and restore the body for optimum energy and performance. Traditional cultures worldwide have wisely followed the art of eating according to the natural rhythms of the changing seasons. Keeping the body in peak condition requires occasional fasts, periods of rest for the body’s hard-working systems. Today, faced with exposure to an increasing array of chemicals, additives, and pesticides, our bodies need these healing respites more than ever. Unlike modern notions of fasting, Carrie L’Esperance’s concept of this practice emphasizes dietary alteration rather than abstinence. She offers recipes designed around seasonal changes and geared toward individual health concerns, including fatigue, digestive disturbances, and excess weight gain. You will increase your energy levels, aid digestion, revitalize your skin, and cleanse your internal organs with a rich variety of delicious recipes from Banana Coconut Ice Cream and Big Scene Salsa Salad to Curry Potato Salad with Kidney Beans and Japanese Soba Noodles with Sesame Miso Sauce. The author also includes instructions for healing herbal baths and cleansers to round out your home healing program.

5 Stars Great!!!
This is a one of a kind book, very special that prepares you for the next season. It is about adjusting your body with the right foods so that you can prevent illness and other maladies, say for instance in the Winter, colds and flu. Also has the best information on fasting and the teas you would make to drink during these fasts, and how to break them. I have personally fasted with these teas and made it to 6 days and felt really wonderful, cleansed and renewed. I highly recommend this unique book, you will not be dissapointed.

5 Stars A Wonderful Guide to Caring for Your Body & Soul with Nature’s Bounty
This book has been a treasured guide of mine for several years now, and I recently purchased my 3rd copy! Not only is it filled with important facts on how to nourish your body’s needs according to the seasonal changes, it also includes delicious recipes that have become staples in my kitchen. Each season is represented with two chapters. The first chapter focuses on detox diets that target specific body parts, and suggests specific foods for creating health in that particular part of the body. The second chapter lists all of the foods that are available during the particular season, and recipes for including them in your diet. If you like to care for your body, enjoy shopping at the farmer’s market, and love to be in your kitchen this book will be one you will have forever! Nothing in the book is extreme, it is all focused on using what nature provides us according to each season to create a healthier you! Buy it, read it, and get well!

4 Stars Definitely beneficial
Any one who says that the recipes are tasty, well, that just isn’t true. Then again, I’m comparing that to a juicy a BBQ bacon cheeseburger, fries and strawberry shake. But then, let’s be honest, it’s the BBQ bacon cheeseburger, fries and strawberry shake that got me into my current “situation” (read: fat lazy slob) in first place.

Yes, she definitely has colorful stories and everything is very insightful and seems well researched. Additionally, she understands there is no “one-size fits all” approach and thus offers several options to cleansing. So how did my cleanse work for me?

Very well. My wife and I did the 5 day Winter cleanse. It was rough. Personal will power is a key component to success and without my wife lending me some of hers, I would not have made it through. After the second day, we were weak, had violent headaches, irratible… not fun people to be around. Of course, this is because we were withdrawling. After fighting through it, we really saw a lot of beneficial effects: My skin was less oily and had a very healthy hue, my mind was very focused (I could wake up in the morning and understand astrophysics), I lost 15 pounds in 5 days.

The drawbacks to the cleanse: The withdrawl is terrible but a very necessary step, the taste of some of those juices is god-awful (why must good tasting food be so bad for you?), I was very fatigued, even after the withdrawl — though not mentally as stated above.

My wife and I did this cleanse because we wanted to get a jumpstart on a healthy lifestyle after a gluttonous holiday season. I mentioned I lost 15 pounds, I put five back almost immediately and have since (with healthy eating and exercise) lost that 5 and then some all in about a month.

Why only 4 stars if the book did what it said? Simple, I’m very hard to impress.

5 Stars Super Cleanse
Book is well written, clear and easy to follow instructions. The story preceding the diets are interesting and relevant to the book. The recipes are simple to follow. The variety of diets offerred are likely to suit most everyone.

5 Stars LOVE this book, LOVE the recipes, Adina’s cleanses are fantastic
I can’t say enough good things about Adina, and the cleanses she advocates, and this book. Since doing my first cleanse with her two years ago, I’ve continued to cleanse a few times a year. Each time I feel amazing and in fact, I love her recipes so much I’ve incorporated many of them into my routine.

Adina’s cleanses are great for so many reasons:

1) she gives you many options to find the right cleanse for you

2) they are nutrient dense so you are not starving yourself

3) her recipes are delicious!

My experience with her cleanses has been fantastic. I was very curious about cleansing but weary of something like the master cleanse because it seems like you’re just starving yourself. Adina’s cleanses are chocked full of nutrients and your body thanks you very quickly for it. I’ve done her Urban Revitalizer cleanse 2x now, her Green Buzz cleanse 2x, and have settled on a hybrid of the two as best for me. They first day or two can be tough, but by day three I feel fantastic, my skin looks fantastic, and I find them surprisingly easy to stick to, even when I’m doing it all on my own and doing all the prep myself. Once you get as far as day one or two, you’re far enough in, I find it pretty easy to stick to it.

Even if you’re not looking to cleanse, this book is full of so many fabulous recipes. Adina’s liver cleansing smoothie (grapefruit, pear, flax oil, and cayenne pepper) has become breakfast for me at least once a week. Green juices are a treat I make as often as I can. Her kale salad, apple porridge, green soups, and nori wraps are all staples in my diet and hits with even my most carnivorous friends.

Can’t recommend this book highly enough.

1 Star Not what I expected
It has a lot of strange recipes. You really need to have a juicer

I probably would not have bought it had I seen it in a book store ,

5 Stars Fantastic Book
I had been wanting to do one of Adina’s cleanses she does out of Cafe Gratitude nearby, but they are pretty expensive, so when this book came out I was really excited. A friend and I did the Three Day Face Lift Cleanse. There was plenty of food and you eat often, so we were never hungry, and by the end we felt absolutely amazing. We had so much energy and were couldn’t believe what three days of eating differently can do.

There are different lengths and levels of cleanses to choose from, ranging from an all vegetarian food cleanse for people easing into that, to completely juice cleanses. And there is a lot of info and support on what to do along with the cleanse, easing out, etc.

This is a great little book with a lot of info and recipes. I would definitely recommend this to a friend
