Jason Vale takes an honest and hard hitting look at people's
conceptions of our most widely consumed drug. Jason's major
argument is there is no such thing as an 'alcoholic' and that we
are conditioned to accept alcohol as a 'normal' substance in
today's society despite the fact that it is the major cause of many
of today's social problems and a wide range of health issues. This
book is much more than a simple eye opener, it will: change the way
you see alcohol forever show you how to stop drinking help you
enjoy the process and enjoy your life so much more than you do now
without having to drink alcohol So open your mind and take a
journey with Jason to explore the myths about the most used and
accepted drug addiction in the world! Jason Vale is the UK's
leading authority on health, addiction, and most importantly
juicing and using the power of freshly extracted raw juice from
fruit and vegetables to help you live a fitter, vibrant and juicier
life! He is the number one best selling author of 7lbs in 7 Days
Super Juice Diet.

'This book could save your life' John Crace 'An unblinking account
of living with - and more importantly, beyond - addiction. Brave,
clear-eyed and inspiring' John Niven 'A rich, uplifting memoir:
Hoskyns portrays how painful inadequacy, masked by drugs, can be
replaced by the messiness of ordinary life' Oliver James A few
months after graduating with a 1st class honours degree from Oxford
University, Barney Hoskyns sat in a damp Clapham basement and asked
his best friend to inject him with heroin. From that moment on, for
the next three years, Hoskyns is hopelessly hooked. This is the
searingly honest story of what brought him to this place - and how
he got himself out of it. Barney Hoskyns is one of the leading
music writers of our time: his books have ranged the musical
landscape from Led Zeppelin to Tom Waits, from Laurel Canyon to
Woodstock. His articles have appeared in NME, Melody Maker, Rolling
Stone and Vogue, and in 2000 he founded Rock's Backpages. Hoskyns
beautifully describes the relationship between music and addiction,
between love and infatuation. Never Enough is Hoskyns's raw,
uncompromising and utterly compelling account of the highs and lows
of life under the needle. Interspersed with photos and diary
entries, Hosykns examines why he so willingly gave himself up to
the death-grip of heroin, and what it took to finally free himself
from it.
