In today’s post, we’re going to talk about the best juicing books.
Have you ever felt that when someone gives you too many options, you can’t seem to make up your mind? when I reached for my first juice book, that’s exactly how I felt.
You are reading: Best books on juicing
After flipping through thousands of pages and purchasing a few by mistake, I compiled a list of books worth your hard-earned money below.
best juice books
juice guide for health
after reading many books on juicing, you will discover that quantity is not the same as quality. There may be 300 juice recipes in the book, but they can taste pretty awful.
That’s not the case with this juice book. Instead of giving you 300 recipes to choose from at random, each recipe is categorized by chapter:
- weight loss
- energy
- skin
- detoxification
- inflammation
- immunity
- heart health
- digestion
Each section explains the health benefits of fruits and vegetables.
The photos are impressive because they were taken by a professional photographer. Each juice recipe was created by a professional chef and the nutritional information was verified by a certified MS RDN.
How does this juice book compare to the rest of the juice books listed here? it’s a little more expensive than the others, but as the saying goes, you really do get what you pay for.
If you haven’t given this a try yet, consider checking it out. is one of the best juice books out there.
the great recipe book for juice lovers
the great recipe book for juice lovers: 425 recipes for super nutritious and delicious juices that offer a lot of creative juices to improve your health. one drawback is that it does not provide specific nutritional labels for each drink.
However, there are some beautiful photographs and the author has a bright and funny voice that really gives off a positive vibe and encourages experimentation.
You will find colorful labels, hints and colorful portrait-style photos as seen below:
The juicing book includes recipes for parties, cooking and everyday juicing. No special occasion required. There are classic juicing recipes but also some funky ones with chia seeds and nut milks.
Compared to other juice cookbooks, the Big Book for Juice Lovers has a lot of basic information about juicing, but nothing too serious or medicinal. it’s perfect for getting juicy ideas or getting inspired on your own.
the bible of juices
The juicing bible has everything from the basics to more extensive information on juicing for common health issues. While there are quite a few recipes, this is more of a juicing guide than a cookbook or plan to follow.
A lot of this juicing book is actually a reference to individual fruits and vegetables. the listings include an illustration, nutritional information, and probably more information on any individual vegetable than you might need.
The Juicing Bible is award-winning and has been a long-standing top seller in the juicing world.

This juice book can be a bit overwhelming for some beginners and many of the recipes include ingredients that can be hard to find.
This would be perfect for someone who is not a juicing newbie but would like to dive deeper into a juicing lifestyle.
joe’s juice diet reboot
The book Reboot with Joe is definitely one of the most popular juice books out there. If you don’t already know, Joe is the man who challenged himself in the movie Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead. he drank nothing but juice for 49 days and lost 67 pounds.
If you haven’t seen it yet, it’s an entertaining watch. As for the book, I’d say you did a great job of laying out your juice fast plan from the documentary.
For me, this juicing book isn’t so much about juicing for health, but more about how to lose weight using juicing as a vehicle to get there.
There are recipes for juices and other plant-based foods such as soups and smoothies that are part of the weight loss plan.
One drawback of the book was that there weren’t as many colorful photos as others.
Another con is that it was a little salesy in the beginning with the recommendations. At the time when the book was written, I believe he partnered with Breville, hence the reason why he pushes that juicer.
reboot with joe has many aspects of self-empowerment and positive thinking that go beyond just juicing. it’s kind of an outlier compared to the other books because it has that motivational x-factor sprinkled in. it almost feels like he’s training you.
You get the pep talks, but you don’t really get all the details. it does not say why certain ingredients were chosen for each of the drinks. Regardless, most of the juice recipes in the book tasted pretty good.
medical means: cleanse to heal
Medical Media: Cleanse to Heal is currently a best-selling new release as part of a series of books on nutrition and health topics.
This juice book looks at the seriousness of the toxic contaminants we’re exposed to and how they might be causing most of our health conditions.
The book features plans for a variety of different cleanses depending on your ailments. only some of the recipes are juices, most are smoothies. this is definitely more serious reading than just a juice book.
The entire medical media series is filled with intense reading and unique information from an author who has a huge fan base and takes credit for the “celery juice movement.”
touches on touchy topics you wouldn’t normally find in a juice book that might ruffle some feathers. this juicy book may be too heavy (physically, mentally, or emotionally) for some readers.
could be something for others and has made a positive difference in the lives of many people.
juices for beginners
Juicing for Beginners: The Essential Guide to Juicing and Juicing Recipes for Weight Loss is a great place to start if you’re new to juicing but serious about losing a few pounds.

This book was written for beginners, but there’s a lot you can get out of this book, even if you’ve been juicing for a while.
There are good sections on how to pick out a juicer and how to juice. Juicing For Beginners has lots of juicing recipes and tips and tricks and hows and whys of juicing. This would a good read for someone before they get juicing.
Most of the problems with this book are not the content but the design and printing of the book. some of the text is hard to read and there is a lot of white space on each page.
Not a bad buy, but one of my least favorites on this list in terms of value.
gerson therapy
the gerson therapy discusses the basics of the gerson program which uses juicing as one of the main components to treat cancer and chronic disease. It is written by Charlotte Gerson, who is the daughter and colleague of Dr. Max Greson, who first developed this theory many years ago.
the gerson therapy juice book addresses chronic disease and ways to treat cancer. the main author is charlotte gerson, but here the father was actually the one who proposed the gerson theory.
This book is not for the faint of heart. it’s packed with a lot of black and white text that doesn’t make for fun reading. there are no color photos or diagrams to explain different topics.
following the gerson therapy juicing plan is not easy. they even cover up their clinics and claim that the program is easier to do from their facilities.
There are also some strange requirements. Gerson recommends that you buy a juicer that costs more than $2,000 and give yourself coffee enemas.
Although interesting, it seems a bit erratic.
things to consider when buying juice books
When I’m looking for the right book, I wonder what I’m looking for. recipes, theory, pep talks, science facts, pretty pictures, or maybe all of the above. here are some key points to consider so you can get the best juice book for you.
juicy targets
then why are you looking for a book on juicing in the first place? maybe you’re just starting out or maybe you’re looking to expand your juicing habit. you might be looking to treat a specific health problem. some books meet all these needs and more.
type of juicer
Centrifugal or masticator? Or maybe you don’t know.
no problem at all. If you are new to this, check out the beginner juice machines.
number of recipes
If you’re looking for recipes, there are more than many juice recipe books out there. most juice books on the market have quite a few recipes. The juicing bible, a longtime standard, has over 350, as do many others. books about treating health conditions or strict weight-loss plans won’t have a seemingly large number of recipes. Books like Half Doctor Celery Juice and Joe’s Juice Reboot Diet have just the recipes for the plan.
images
Who doesn’t love a picture book? some of us just need the visual connection of a beautiful color photograph. I think this can be particularly important for new juicers because looking at pictures of juice makes you want to drink some right now! The Big Juice Book has more photos than any other juice book I’ve ever seen! Most juice cookbooks, like The Complete Juice Cookbook, have a few photos scattered throughout. most medical or healing-focused books either have none or are next to them.
author
I think the author is important and people often overlook it. who is giving us this information and why? Keeping this in mind can help you meet your personal goals, not just those of author and publisher. For example, some readers have found it conflicting with the spiritual aspects of the medical medium series or Williams’ lack of credentials. Another example is that I once saw a smoothie book that promoted veganism more than recipes. Taking a look at the author and his other works can be critical to finding the right book.
conclusion
As you can see, there are quite a few great juicing books out there. Which is the best? Well that depends on you and what you want. the five books reviewed here are the best in their own categories, but there are plenty more where they came from. Hopefully, this will help you find the right one to continue enjoying.
