How & Why to Cleanse

Why should I do a juice cleanse?

From time to time it is good to give your body a rest from the stresses of everyday life.  We can't control everything, but we can control what we put in our bodies.  Juice cleansing is a good way to:

  1. Give your digestive system a break so your body can heal and repair itself quickly.

  2. Feed yourself pure nutrition that your body can absorb immediately.

  3. Help your liver and kidneys detoxify your body.

  4. Give your body what it needs to slim down and have more energy.

 

What are the benefits of doing a juice cleanse?

When you give your body Nothin' but pure nutrition from plants that it can absorb easily and quickly, you start to feel the effects immediately.  Many people experience the following during and after a juice cleanse:

  1. Rapid Weight Loss 

  2. Bloating Eliminated

  3. More Energy

  4. Clear Bright Skin

  5. Powerful Workouts

  6. Deeper Sleep

  7. Stronger Immune System

 How often should I do a juice cleanse?

It all depends on your personal situation, and we notice there is a range of different frequencies that our customers do a juice cleanse:

  • At a minimum, it is beneficial to cleanse once every three months (a lot of people like to time this with the changing of the seasons).

  • Once a month to keep your health and weight loss goals on track.

  • Once a week (3-5 days) for a month or longer for more serious health and weight loss goals.

  • The ultimate juice cleanse: every day for 2+ weeks. Yes, this is healthy as long as you are getting enough of a variety of plants.  You can supplement our juices with raw fruits and vegetables.

 

Why is cleansing effective?

Juicing extracts the liquid portion of a plant and easily maximizes the nutrients we take into our bodies.   There is nothing more nutritious and absorbable than raw juice.  The enzymes in raw juice digest our food and turn it into fuel - all while removing harmful toxins and increasing immunity to sickness and disease.  The vital nutrients from juice quickly reaches your organs, resets your body, re-oxygenates your blood, flushes out fat, neutralizes the unhealthy, disease-promoting acidic state caused by the typical American diet, and helps you take control of your health and well-being.

 

How should I prepare for my cleanse?

To get the best results, cut out dairy, meat, and grains a few days before you cleanse.  At a minimum, eat plant-based foods the day before, emphasizing lots of vegetables.

How often should I drink each bottle?

We recommend drinking one 16oz bottle every 2-2.5 hours.  If you find you don’t need all 6 bottles daily, save the extras to extend your cleanse or to use as a snack or meal replacement after your cleanse. 

 

In what order should I drink the bottles?

There is no right or wrong order.  It is totally up to you and what you’re feeling.  

What if I am hungry during my cleanse?

If 6 bottles a day is not enough for you, try eating raw fruit and/or vegetables.  If you are still hungry, try eating a handful of raw nuts.

Should I be drinking water?

Absolutely!  Drink water as often as you need to.

Can I drink coffee?

No, you shouldn't drink coffee.  For maximum results during a juice cleanse, you want to bring your body into a more alkaline state.  So if you are a coffee drinker, you should take measures to wean off of it since coffee is a high acidic/caffeinated beverage.
