What is a Juice Cleanse?

A juice cleanse is a short-term, nutrient-dense reset where you’ll drink six 16-ounce bottles of freshly pressed juices daily. These juices are designed to support your body’s natural detoxification processes while providing prebiotic fibers and essential nutrients to nourish your gut.


Why Gut Health?

Your gut is the foundation of your health—it affects your mood, digestion, focus, and even sleep. A happy gut can lead to less bloating, better digestion, and improved overall wellness. While results vary, some people notice benefits like:

  • Daily, healthy bowel movements.
  • Reduced bloating and water retention.
  • Increased energy and mental clarity.

Common Signs of Poor Digestive Health:

  • Gas
  • Bloating
  • Acid reflux
  • Water retention
  • Itchy or dry skin (e.g., eczema)
  • Painful menstrual cycles
  • Irritability or mood swings
  • Constipation or irregular bowel movements

How Juicing Supports Gut Health

Juicing provides your body with easy-to-digest nutrients while giving your gut a rest. Key benefits include:

  • Prebiotic Fibers: These feed the good bacteria in your gut, supporting healthy flora and fauna.
  • Insoluble Fiber: Helps with colon cleansing and promotes regular bowel movements.
  • Reduced Bloating: Juicing may help you feel less puffy and improve digestion.
  • Mental and Emotional Wellness: A balanced gut can enhance mood, focus, and motivation.

    Who Should NOT Cleanse?

    Juice cleanses are not for everyone. Please consult your doctor if you:

    • Are pregnant or breastfeeding.
    • Have Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes or blood sugar instability.
    • Have been advised by a healthcare provider to avoid fasting or cleanses.
    • Have heart conditions or other serious medical conditions.

    Your Juice Cleanse Journey

    The Prep Phase (2-3 Days Before):

    • Mindset: Start with the right mindset—focus on nourishing your body, not restricting it.
    • Diet Adjustments: Gradually reduce processed foods, caffeine, alcohol, and refined sugars. Replace these with whole foods, fruits, and vegetables.
    • Hydration: Increase your water intake (spring water like Eternal or alkaline water like Essentia) to help your body adjust.

    The Cleanse Phase (1 or 3 Days):

    • Six Juices a Day: Enjoy your juices every 2-3 hours. Stay hydrated with water or herbal teas in between.
    • Listen to Your Body: Some people feel energized, while others may experience detox symptoms like fatigue or mild headaches. This is normal and temporary.
    • Journal Your Experience: Write down your thoughts, feelings, and physical symptoms each day.

    The Post-Cleanse Phase (1-3 Days After):

    • Break Your Fast Gently: Start with light, easily digestible meals like fruit, soups, or smoothies.
    • Reintroduce Foods Slowly: Gradually add back whole grains, proteins, and healthy fats.
    • Stay Hydrated: Keep up with water and herbal teas to maintain your glow.

    Meal Ideas for Breaking Your Fast

    Your dietary path influences how you break your fast and transition back to regular meals. *** Always break your fast with something warm, no bread or heavy, greasy food.***

    1. Vegan: Vegetable soup, broth, and fruit.
    2. Raw Vegan: Fresh smoothies, zucchini noodles with cashew cream, soaked nuts and seeds.
    3. Pescatarian: Wild-caught fish like cod with steamed veggies, salmon salad, broth.
