When people get together to celebrate the big events in their lives—weddings, holidays, graduations—they toast the event. The toast, “To life!” made famous by the musical Fiddler on the Roof, has always resonated with me. I decided that Liquid Health would be an expansion on that toast. In Liquid Health, my goal is that you raise your glass, not just to “life,” but to a life lived healthily and dynamically. Liquid Health is a tool to help support and educate you, enabling you to live a healthier lifestyle.

But people’s lives are very busy nowadays; even when we try to slow down, our lives speed right back up again. That’s why Liquid Health makes it easy—it shows you that anyone can throw healthy ingredients into high-speed blender or run them through a juicer. You don’t have to be a neurosurgeon or a rocket scientist to use this book. You may not have time to make a seven-layer raw salad, but you absolutely have time to throw some genuinely healthy ingredients in a blender and push the button.

When you’re going through life’s challenges, or when you’re starting to feel tired and rundown, know that it’s easier on your body to digest liquids. It takes less energy and time. We never really think about it, but the challenges of life can be so overwhelming at times that the physical act of digesting food—even healthy food—seems like too much to handle. Liquid Health is the gentle and easy way for you and your body to get the nutrients your body needs.

Liquid Health is full of amazing, delicious recipes that are not only healthy, but also easy to make. While I was putting together this collection, the thought at the forefront of my mind was that each person is an individual. What works for your body may not work for the next person’s body.

With that in mind, each recipe is marked as belonging to one of more of the following diets: raw (R), paleo (P), gluten-free (GF), or vegan (V). I’ve also included a brief explanation on each of these recipes, for those curious about expanding their palate. This also makes it easy for those already following these lifestyles to locate the recipes that suit their needs. I have also noted places where a recipe can be rendered usable with another diet simply by changing an ingredient or two. For example, removing raw honey from a recipe and replacing it with stevia will render the recipe vegan. My goal and my hope for Liquid Health is to meet you right where you are on your path to better health, and to support your healthy lifestyle!
