Product Description
Unleash your life force with the power of cleansing!
Today's stressful schedules and hectic lifestyles can leave us feeling drained, both physically and emotionally. But we don't always know the best way to reboot and rejuvenate. Now, in Super Cleanse, holistic chef and cleanse expert Adina Niemerow reveals the key to de-stressing, detoxing, clearing your mind, and revitalizing your body: by tapping into the miracle benefits of a cleanse. There's no one-size-fits-all approach to cleansing here; instead, Niemerow presents ten comprehensive cleanse experiences for both the beginning and the veteran cleanser, with specifically tailored recipes and exercise/activity suggestions that combine to form mini-retreats for the body, mind, and spirit. There are more than one hundred delicious recipes for juices, soups, smoothies, salads, main dishes, and side dishes, with full menus for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. There's also a pre-cleanse checklist, ways to ease the detox process, a rundown on the best juicers, and tips for how to get the most out of your cleanse. Complete with first-person success stories from Niemerow's happy clients that bring the cleanses to life, Super Cleanse is an enjoyable and effective way for readers to jump-start their health and reenergize their lives.

Summary: Well written cleanse book
I bought this book on a kick to get healthy, and never having cleansed before was in for a shock at the cost. I had to buy a juicer, which I spent over $200 for, then the vitamins, special ingredients totalled another $100 so it is a hefty investment. Once you get past this, it is time consuming also so plan ahead to shop for ingredients and pre-chop. You will not be in the mood to due much once you start fasting, or at least that was my experience. I found the fast itself to be very hard - I jumped into a 3 day when I probably should have started with one day. I did not make it through 3 days, about 2 and during the fast I had bad headaches which i believe is from caffeine/sugar withdrawal. My roommate did this with me which was helpful, I would recommend trying to find someone to be your partner to keep your willpower up.
At the end of the fast I did start to feel clearer as the author stated would happen. I plan to do another cleanse of one day or 3 day coming up and this time I will be prepared mentally.
I wish the author would have said if you do a one day you can swap x out from 3 day, etc. as I am not sure if it matters with calorie intake or not, and I would prefer some of the 3 day items for the one day fast.
I liked the author's style of writing and she did include a number of cleanses, so I do recommend this book.

Summary: Very informative!!
Liked all the information in this book. I read the Skinny bitch liked that as well. this book is different than skinny bitch, it tells you "how to" attain the goals you want to reach. I always wanted to do a detoxing diet, this book made it easy for me. Thanks to Adina.

Summary: Mislead With All The Postive Ratings
Like the title says.... I really felt mislead with all the positive ratings. I think the book is great for beginners who know nothing about detoxing. However, I never got around to actually trying the recipes, because a lot of the recipes called for not-so common ingredients that one would probably have to go to a health food store. Now, I'm not opposed to that, but it just wasn't what I was expecting/looking for for my first attempt at detoxing (also read: the recipes just didn't look enjoyable). Overall, I just didn't care for the author and her recipes.
I did originally end up ordering it from Amazon, but I never received my order, so I ended up purchasing it from a local bookstore. I wish I would have perused through it first, because I ended up returning it for, "The New Detox Diet: The Complete Guide for Lifelong Vitality With Recipes, Menus, and Detox Plans". It was definitely more of what I was looking for.
I realize I didn't give much information on the book (wish I could, but I no longer have it in my possession); however, my best suggestion for this book is to go to the bookstore and look through it first. Good luck.

Summary: Easy Read
I liked this book because it was easy to read, fun and the recipes are great. I like that Niemerow writes about the spiritual side of cleansing. It is true after doing the Urban Revitalizer I did look and feel different and it did change the way I eat. You can have fun with the recipes and mix them up and make your own cleanse there are many tasty recipes to choose from. I actually wrote her an email and she personally gave me suggestions!

Summary: The cleanse that changed our lives
My husband and I did the Laughing Buddha cleanse terrified of not consuming dairy, meat, caffeine or alcohol for 5 days -- most of which were part of our daily intake of food for the 40 years we've been on Earth.
The cons: It takes a lot of time to shop, prep, cook and clean up. But you can make a bunch of one menu item and eat it over several days, or choose a more liquid-based cleanse.
The pros: The book is easy to follow and understand. The cleanse changed the way we look at food and removed mental obstacles.
