Synopsis
A practical 14 day diet plan with 30 raw energy recipes from the UK's leading health coach and seminar leader, Jason Vale - aka the Juice Master. Jason Vale is fast becoming the UK's most popular health coach. Here 'the Juice Master' offers his first ever 14 day diet programme. The 14 Day Turbo Charge Your Life programme includes: / no wheat, no yeast and no 'man made' carbs after 6pm (carbs are to be eaten at lunchtime only) / 70 per cent of your daily menu being comprised of water-rich 'live' foods / not eating 3 hours before going to bed / exercising twice a day for 45-60 mins (weight resisting exercise every other day) / TV and recreational computer time being kept to a max of 2 hours a day / 30 great recipes including Green Veggie Power Soup, Turbo Salad, Protein Snack Attack, and Green Power Smoothie Jason Vale tackles the most common excuses we use to let ourselves off the hook: 'I can't because! I've got a slow metabolism! I don't have time!' and offers inspirational stories of people who have overcome giant obstacles to achieve their goal.

This book will help you move from a dieting mentality to one where you focus on what you can have rather than what you think you can't have.

About the Author
Jason Vale, the Juice Master, is a successful health and lifestyle coach and TV presenter. A fantastic advert for what he preaches: fit and healthy, he is a former chocolate-bingeing, lager-drinking chain smoker who has turned his life around, and since 1994 he has personally helped thousands of people destroy their cravings for the unhealthy products we're addicted to. His seminars are consistently sold out.

Customer Reviews

No more diets. Yay!
Finally, I've found somebody who has told me that dieting doesn't work and actually PROVED to me that he's right! I never would have believed it but I've found the solution to my health and weight problems all in one book (or two - because I found the 7 lbs in 7 days juicing plan an absolute 'must'). This man talks little rubbish, doesn't pussy-foot around with words and makes complete and utter sense just as long as you're open to admitting it! You really cannot disagree with anything here. Whether you follow the plan itself or not, I would defy anybody who reads this book not to think twice before diving into that packet of biccies or frying up a pound of sausages - and perhaps (even hopefully??) choosing an alternative.

This is not a tree-huggy, evergreen, pink and fluffy environmentally friendly and PC sort of book. Yes, it advocates healthy living - but not in an overboard rammed-down-your-throat sort of a way. It's a great read, full of lovely humour and anecdotes, jammed full of home truths and lots of reverse psychology which is so subtle it's fantastic. I can't think of a better gift for anybody. Treat yourself - or treat somebody else. You won't regret it.

If you're looking for motivation to begin a healthier lifestyle, look no further!
I'll keep this brief - this book is not perfect (but then very few books are).

It is not an all-in-one book for a healthier lifestyle, so please don't buy it on its own if you need a 'reference book'. Neither is it a diet book (it follows no particular dietary path other than fresh, preferably organic, wholefoods), nor is it a recipe book.

What this book DOES do, superbly (despite the, at times, slightly-condescending language), is provide the reader with a very healthy dose of motivation. Ironically, I came to this book as someone who is already into living foods and juicing etc. - my interest in it was therefore entirely casual. I found this book to be something of a dark horse - it does not outwardly give the reader much of an impression of where its true strengths lie, and is written in rather simple language (that's not a criticism, just an observation), yet I cannot recall reading a mass-market book that so accessibly, un-'intellectually' and unpretentiously motivates the reader. I therefore highly recommend it as light reading for motivational purposes, for which it is good value for money. The other aspects of the book are weaker but at this price, it's a really good value does of motivation. Well done, on that count, Jason!

It's so easy to follow!
I have tried numerous diets by none have worked for me but this has.
This is so easy!
The juices are delicious and you never feel hungry.
I did have the advantage that I don't eat meat, drink tea or coffee or alcohol, my down fall is chocolate!
I did not miss this at all and never felt hungry.
In the first week I lost 7 1bs, my husband who eats meat lost 14 Ibs and we have both continued to loose weight over the following three weeks too.
My husband and I have continued to have a juice every day and to follow the points covered in the book.
Other benefits are improved skin and lots more energy.
I would recommend that you read the book first before embarking on the eating plan.
I am calling this an eating plan as it is not a diet but a change in eating habits.
