Before starting a Juice Cleanse, you must 'prep' your body by upholding a healthy diet three days before you start your juice cleanse, this will ease the hunger cravings.
How To Cleanse:
Upholding a healthy diet three days before you start your juice cleanse will help ease the hunger cravings.
Three days before, you must…
· Eliminate processed/junk/fast foods, sugar, meat, dairy, caffeine and alcohol
· Stay hydrated – drink 8 (or more) glasses of water per day
· Get extra sleep
· Eat more salads, vegetable soup, legumes, raw vegetables, nuts and seeds, tuna, salmon
One day before…
· Do not take any self-prescribed, or over the counter medications
· Stop all non-prescribed vitamins and supplements; unless advised to take them by a physician
During your cleanse...
· Start your first day off with a glass of water and fresh lemon
· Drink your 6 juices per day in 2 hour increments
· If you must eat, snack on raw vegetables (eating does slow down the cleansing process)
· Drink 8 (or more) glasses of water per day
After your cleanse…
· Start with eating soft, easy to digest foods
· Gradually incorporate solid foods
· Try including daily juice into your daily routine to maintain that healthy, amazing feeling that juicing allows us to experience!
Happy
Cleansing!
Your Mind is Stronger Than You Think…
Set an intention for your juice cleanse!
It can be tough when those food cravings come along, but with a strong mind and a set goal you can accomplish your juice cleanse with ease! You will be eliminating most of your comfort foods, and depending on your level of detoxification, you may experience some headaches, nausea and slight mood swings. These symptoms usually go away after 24 hours. After a couple days, you will feel more energized and revitalized!
Remember, mind over matter – have faith in yourself, you can do it!
