Vale was a self confessed addict of smoking, alcohol, and junk food and a chronic sufferer of psoriasis, eczema, and hay fever. Vale claims he was then influenced by early juicing pioneer Norman Walker and began juicing to improve his health. In his book Slim 4 Life, Vale states that he lost weight, gave up smoking and drinking, and stopped eating junk food by changing his mindset to his addictions. Vale claims that as a result of daily juicing he lost four stone and is now free of his skin conditions and hay fever. Jason became a trainer for Allen Carr (the now deceased author of The Easy Way to Stop Smoking) and set up a clinic in Birmingham, UK.[1]
With the launch of his first published book in 2001 as the self-titled Juice Master Vale has continued to promote the health benefits of consuming freshly extracted juices and smoothies in the media. Vale, through publishers Harper Collins, has sold approximately 500,000 copies of his books (and accompanying DVDs) in the United Kingdom.
Vale worked with Moulinex from 2003-2005 promoting one of their juice extractors that they later named after him.[2] In 2005, Vale controversially canceled the endorsement and instead moved to endorse a juicer with Royal Philips Electronics.
Vale and his company Juice Master Ltd have branched out into running seminars, retreats, and juice bars. Vale opened his first juice detox retreat in Turkey in 2005 [3][4] and organises health seminars across the United Kingdom and Ireland. In 2008, Vale opened his second Irish juice bar in John Roberts Square in Waterford.[5][6]
Jason began his TV career as a manager on Channel 4's The Fit Farm and has since appeared on This Morning, GMTV and numerous times on Five's The Wright Stuff.[7] Vale has also appeared in Irish media on The Ray Darcy Show, The Gerry Ryan Show, Studio One (TV Series) and popular culture show Xposé.[8] Vale's promotion as The Juice Master by Royal Philips Electronics has achieved media attention in Denmark, Norway, The Netherlands, Finland, Turkey, and Italy.
Jason is known to have worked publicly with Katie Price (Jordan) who he claims to have helped lose two stone in three months, after the birth of her second child, on Vale's Turbo Charge programme.[9]
