INTRODUCTION
I
BECAME KNOWN AS “the Juice Lady” on TV and in print because of a
serendipitous request from the owners of the Juiceman company. I was
living in Seattle, completing graduate school at Bastyr University (a school
of natural medicine), when another graduate student and I were asked to write a
little booklet containing juice recipes and nutrition information to accompany the
Juiceman juicer. One thing led to another, and before long I was traveling
around the country almost weekly as the Juice Lady, teaching people how to
create nutritious juices that are guaranteed to renew health and vitality.
Since even before I decided to pursue my master’s degree in nutrition science,
I had a passionate personal interest in the benefits of high-quality nutrition. This
is because it was juicing, detoxing, and eating whole organic foods that had
brought me back to full health not only once, but twice. (Read my story in
chapter 1.) Now I want nothing more than to bring other people along with me
on the journey to full life.
In this book I want to introduce you to the special benefits of juicing to
improve or restore your thyroid function. People need this information. Too
many of you are suffering from symptoms of thyroid disorders, and you don’t
know what’s wrong. Doctors don’t seem to be able to help you, and when they
try, their prescriptions come with unwelcome side effects and symptoms of their
own, not to mention high price tags.
Are you ready for something better? It’s time for you to learn to make highly
nutritious juices in your own kitchen. Juices and smoothies made from fresh
vegetables, fruits, and other foods can help you regain your health and vitality—
and keep you healthy for the rest of your life. Given the insidiousness of serious
thyroid disease, easy alternatives to expensive and often futile medical
interventions deserve your careful consideration.
Why go to the trouble of making your own juice? Why not just buy it? After
all, stores are now stocked with a growing array of juices and other beverages
made from organic, natural ingredients.
The primary reason is that you simply cannot get complete nutritional benefits
from juice that is not freshly made, regardless of how carefully it was bottled
and stored. Too many of the vitamins and other nutrients are lost or altered in
juice that is not fresh, even when it has been produced from the finest
ingredients. Most of the bottled fresh juice is pasteurized, meaning high heat is
used, which kills vitamins, enzymes, and biophotons.
Another obvious reason is that your choices will be limited to whatever sells
