Claudia: Was surprised at how thick the book was. The first 50 pages is about the art of smoothies and how to layer and the different types of products to use. Then the other portion was the recipes. Loved going through it! Made it the perfect gift for someone who didn't want anything but was diving into the world of healthy eating.

In the 2-3 months I've had it, this book has provided me with so much emotional - and physical - fulfillment! As a single person with not much in the way of an appetite and limited energy, you quickly discover that making standard meals just doesn't make sense in terms of the energy and effort (and then you end up eating the same leftovers for days!) It turns out that smoothies are one of the few things in this world that actually make more sense to prepare when you're single- a blender full of smoothie doesn't go far for a family of four, but it's perfect for a single smoothie-loving person! And... smoothies just make me happy! There's something very self-nurturing about sitting down with a fancy glass full of frozen healthy goodness.
I have seen some people here say this isn't the best book for a beginner, but I'd have to disagree. I was a complete beginner to making smoothies when I bought this book, and after just a few months of smoothie making, I've easily learned enough from Morris to craft and adapt my own recipes. Some say the ingredients are hard to find, but if you have the internet and know how to use a search engine, you can find ingredients...

R. McCreery:
The recipes don't have nutritional information, which is really why I gave it 4 stars. After all, I bought this book to improve my health and well-being. So the lack of nutritional info is a real disappointment.
Also, just so you know, when you get the book, if you are committed to really giving it a go, you are gonna have to order stuff online. Even Whole Foods does not carry dried mulberries, for example. And you might decide (like I am learning) that you're gonna need a bigger blender. For the super foods, I suggest nuts.com. Check them out; their customers rave about them. For the blender, I'm saving my pennies for a Vitamix, which isn't essential, but my blender is struggling.
All of that said, the recipes are terrific, and I'm committed to this. Mainly. I probably won't order the algae ... But read up on the super foods, starting on page 16. The goji berries are yummy and life-changing. The orange-goji smoothie is my favorite so far (I added the zest of the orange and substituted frozen berries for ice). Yum! The introduction of goji berries and chia seeds into my diet is well worth the price of the book and much...

Since my Ninja Mega Kitchen System took a while to ship (back ordered) I wanted to spend some time reading up on smoothie-making and Superfoods in order to educate myself before I just jumped into my "Green Drink Detox." And after reading David Wolfe's book on Superfoods, I got an education I would not soon forget. Then I read Gabrielle Raiz's wonderful book before I read this Julie Morris book.
While shopping on Amazon a few weeks later, I spotted this Julie Morris book - that wasn't even released yet, but that I could buy for $4.95 as an advance copy. Having read four books prior to this one, I can honestly say this is, BY FAR, the best and most complete book I have read to date.
About the Author: The first thing that struck me are the images of the author. She's angelic... That is to say, she has the face of an angel. The reason for her glow is probably due to her diet. Los Angeles-based natural food chef and advocate of whole, plant-based foods and superfoods, Julie Morris has worked in the natural food industry for close to a decade as a recipe developer, writer, cooking show host and spokesperson and executive chef for Navitas Naturals....
