Jason Vale - The Juice Master Juice Yourself Slim - The Healthy Way To Lose Weight Without Dieting

Here are just a few of the hundreds of thousands of genuine emails I have received over the years. I have made comments after some of them to fully illustrate some of the points. I would like to thank the thousands of people who have taken the time to write to me. Even if it takes a few months I always make a point of reading and replying to as many as possible. It was hard to pick out just a few. However, I hope this small selection enables you to see the sort of health and slimming magic that can occur with the help of the right frame of mind, a few fruits and vegetables, a juicer and a blender.

Please do not make the mistake of skipping the letters. They all have a message and they all help to lay the foundations. Remember, everything I have written is for a reason; every word has a point to it; and every one of the letters you read here is 100 per cent genuine and unsolicited. The magic is in their words – don’t miss them.

‘Subject: Yippee! I never have to go on another diet!!! WOW! Where do I start? Since having two kids 13 and 10 years ago my weight has gone up and down like you wouldn’t believe. Like many people I’ve done The Cabbage Soup Diet and Weight Watchers (brill, no more counting those bloody points!) to name but a few, but it wasn’t until September of last year that I found that juicing really and truly works for me. It really has been amazing — life-changing in fact. (I know you most probably hear this all the time!) I have since lost 2 stone. I have gone from 11st 4lbs to 9st 3lbs. Size 14 to size 10. in fact, I am wearing a size 8 top at the moment … I haven’t done that for years! One of the reasons I am emailing you is that the friends I have introduced juicing to keep saying ‘you must tell him how well you’ve done’ or ‘you should be one of his reps.’ I know you’ve had an email this week from Louise who’s done really well. She’s just one of the people I’ve introduced it to. My neighbour Maria has lost 9lbs in one week and my husband is doing it at the moment and has lost 6lbs since Monday (he was a bit sceptical at first). I’m sooo proud of all of them. I think to date it’s well over 4 stone between us all. Also, my kids love the smoothies. It just feels so good to see them drink all that live goodness. I must admit that when we go on holiday I get really crabby because I can’t do my juicing. Of course I always choose the healthy option now, which isn’t too bad. in fact, when I see people sitting in places like McDonald’s I feel sorry for them when they could quite easily go somewhere else and have something healthier. I have turned into a bit of the Food Police, and when my kids see something that’s not very nice they go ‘Oooh that’s toxic!’ Well at least it’s got them thinking about what they are putting in their mouths. Louise and I are coming to your seminar in Manchester, which we are really excited about, and I’m saving like mad to go on one of your Ultimate Retreat weeks next year. Well you’ve most probably had enough of my waffling now so as a last note I just want to say THANK YOU. You really have changed our lives, for which I will be eternally grateful. Many thanks Paula’

The weight loss is one thing but what interested me most was the knock-on effect success like this has. Not only has Paula lost over 28lbs and a few dress sizes, but because of her success her neighbour did it and lost 9lbs in one week, and even Paula’s husband who was a sceptic lost 6lbs in just a few days. What is also wonderful is how this kind of influence has an effect on their children too. Juicing and smoothie-making creates theatre in the kitchen and kids are often mesmerized by it.

‘Hi Jason and team Just wanted you to know I recently bought a juicer from you and am now mad on it! Lost a stone in weight in just under three weeks! And that was not really why I started. I had headaches most evenings, hay fever and allergies. Anyway, my headaches have gone and so has everything else. I feel great, and I’m not actually going mad on my intake, just one or two juices a day with a healthy meal. So far I’ve converted three other people because of the way I now look! I’m so pleased I listen to Steve Wright on Radio 2 as that’s where I heard about this. Cheers Jason — Happy Juicing M. Waller’

Headaches gone, hay fever gone and 14lbs lighter in under three weeks without even trying. Just by having a couple of juices and smoothies a day with a healthy meal – which, funnily enough, is exactly the principle of the Juice Yourself Slim programme. Once again, they have converted three of their friends because of the way they now look – the juice revolution is happening!

‘Dear Mr Vale My husband and I are very much enjoying drinking delicious juices as a result of reading your books. Not only do we have more energy and better health but our hair is also going back to its original colour! We are 68 and 73 years old, so that is a wonderful surprise! Yours sincerely Audrey S’

What’s wonderful about this email isn’t so much that their hair started to go back to its original colour (although WOW!)but that at 68 and 73 years old they are willing to try new things in the 21st century health world. They’re not alone either. I am receiving more and more letters and emails from people in, let’s say, the mature part of their life. The digestive system often gets weak as the years go on, and juicing and smoothie-making are the perfect way to get ‘live’ nutrients into a weak system. I honestly can’t wait till I get our juice and smoothie bars up and running in hospitals. If there was ever a place crying out for excellent nutrition that’s easy to digest and assimilate, it’s hospitals.

‘I have got so much energy and mental clarity … and I am so happy because I have got my 90-year-old grandad into juicing and he loves it!’

Once again proving the fact it’s never too late to teach an old dog new juicy tricks!

‘Hi Jason I would just like to say thank you so much! I’m 15 and have been overweight all my life, constantly trying to slim down. That was until my mum bought your book and I read it. I’ve lost a stone and the weight just keeps going. I’ve never been happier or felt better. Thank you! Jenny’

Here’s someone at the other end of the age spectrum. Jenny is just 15 years old – the book clearly inspired her and the juices were the exact fuel required to catapult her to change, something she had been trying to do for years. I have had hundreds, if not thousands, of emails from people of 16 years of age or less. I remember one particular boy aged just 12 who lost over 3 stone after reading Slim 4 Life. The weight loss is one thing, but to read a book of this nature at just 12 years old is I feel a feat in itself. I know many adults who buy these books but never actually read them.

We live in a weight-obsessed society and one thing is for sure: teenage girls (and boys) will often follow just about anything their idol is doing to look great, no matter how bats it may be. To give you an example, after Victoria Beckham was seen reading a particular weight-loss book aimed mainly at teenagers entitled Skinny Bitch, sales increased by 4,000 per cent that same day! If a celebrity a teenager looks up to decides to drink oil and eat leather to lose weight, they will follow. One of the many good things which came from Jordan doing the juicing programme was the tremendous influence she had on teenage girls looking to lose weight. Teenagers up and down the country started juicing fresh celery, cucumber, pineapple, apple, lime and spinach and blending it with avocado and ice to make the now famous Turbo Charge Smoothie – the very one Jordan was having daily. Tweenagers (ages 8–12) and teenagers drinking vegetables! A breakthrough by any standards, I’m sure you’ll agree.
