How to Juice Fast for Total Cleanse

Written by on December 9, 2009 · Leave a Comment

This article is essentially a condensed version of my core total cleanse routine and guide which you can also find on my site as well if you want a more comprehensive and detailed guide. This is meant for those of you who need something a bit more general or simply would prefer a more compact version of my prior total cleanse routine. What this says is essentially how to juice fast for total cleanse, juice fasting is by far the most effective, quickest, and natural way to really clean out your colon and help detox your body in the process. Always consult a doctor or other healthcare professional before doing any cleansing routine or cleansing products.

Basically what I recommend that people do is that the day before they cleanse and particularly the night before they cleanse I recommend that people do not eat heavily and that most of their food should be raw and organic and should not be processed or cooked. This is to help prepare the body for the next three days or you will not be in any solid food and you’ll only be drinking juice and water. The first thing that needs to be done is the person doing the cleanse needs to purchase a bottle of natural oral liquid laxative, I use and often recommend buying oral solution magnesium citrate, you can find a bottle of this at any drugstore like CVS, Walgreens, and Rite Aid to name a few. The bottle is usually 10 to 12 ounces and is generally in a glass bottle, I recommend putting it in the fridge and cooling it just like you would a beverage so that it goes down easier. You drink the whole bottle the night before you start your cleanse and throughout the night and into the next day your bowel movements should be mostly liquid and this is a good thing as it exactly what you want to see and that means your colon is removing all the excess waste.

Instead of using an entire article or post for each individual day I’ll simply sum up how to juice fast for total cleanse throughout the three days as what you do doesn’t change really very much. If you have a juicer I recommend juicing over buying bottled juice as this kind of juice has more enzymes in and it’s also a lot healthier for you as a result. If you don’t have or can’t acquire a juicer I recommend buying only organic whole juices, no juice blends or anything from concentrate, just the straight stuff with no extra ingredients except for the juice itself and that’s it. You can generally consume any type of fruit juice that you want but there are specific vegetable juices that you must take each day, these four include carrot juice, cucumber juice, beet juice, and celery juice. Be sure to get an equal amount of each juice regardless of the serving within each day and drink these for all three days. Along with the fruit juice and vegetable juice you must continue to drink a large amount of purified filtered water I recommend at least 2 to 3 liters for women in 3 to 4 for men possibly more during cleanse by about an extra liter or so for both genders.

You will be hungry, you may even feel ill, your breath may get worse and your body odor may start to worsen as well, this is to be expected and is a sign that you were starting to release the toxins naturally from your body, stick with it. At the end of the three days you can eat again but do so with small portions and only with raw and organic foods nothing processed or cooked do this for the next 3 to 7 days as well. Then you can gradually go back to at least some of the foods that you ate before, but if you want to maintain the results you’re going to want to stick to a healthy and natural diet.

Total Cleanse Directions

Written by on December 9, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Cleansing can sometimes be a very difficult thing to do if you’re not quite sure what steps to take especially if you’re a person needs to know each detail step-by-step. To be honest, I don’t think there’s any real clear one-way method to do every type of total cleanse that can possibly be done. However depending on which cleansing routine you choose to go with, there are definitely some total cleanse directions, tips, and some general guidelines that should help you give you a better idea of what you want to do relative to what you’re trying to remedy your heal. Always room or that these are guidelines and guidelines alone, you should always consult your doctor before doing any serious cleansing routine and also listen to your body and make sure you’re not doing anything to harm yourself.

If your primary cleansing routine is through  juicing then what I recommend you do is take at least a couple glasses with each meal or where normally you would have a meal during the day. If at all possible please make sure that this is freshly juiced juice, this is important because fresh juice contains enzymes which are more effective at delivering nutrients into your system. In addition to the two glasses at each meal you should also make sure you have water with them as well at least a glass or two along with having water in between. You can also have a glass or two of fresh juice in between your main juice drinking meals, just don’t ever forget to drink purified water it’s crucial that your body is made of mostly water you need it to survive juice alone is not enough.

If your method for cleansing is through drinking smoothies or green smoothies for directions will be similar but slightly different. Depending upon the serving size you can have anywhere between one large glass or two smaller glasses of smoothies within each time you normally eat a meal or along with a meal. You generally need to drink more juice than you do drinking smoothies because juice contains no fiber and smoothies do and they generally are more filling as a result. If you’re curious what kind of juice I would personally recommend you take I recommend doing a minimum mixture of beet juice, cucumber juice, carrot juice, celery juice and anything else you might want to add for sweetness like apple Juice. As regards the smoothies I generally recommend you add greens to your fruit smoothies. The fruits I would recommend are mostly berries like blueberries, elderberries, aronia berries, black berries, and at least one whole banana for thickness and potassium. The greens I recommend adding would be kale, spinach, or rainbow chard. Always remember not to be afraid to try out different varieties and change things up with greens and fruits you use for your juices and your smoothies so you keep things not only new and interesting but also healthy by introducing different nutrients and flavors on a regular basis. These are simple total cleanse directions and guidelines that anyone can follow and really work.

Total Cleansing

Written by on December 9, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Total cleansing can take a lot of different forms, and there’s a lot of different methods out there in which you can cleanse your body completely. If you’re uncomfortable doing this kind of thing yourself I do recommend checking out the different cleansing products are available, I say this because doing it the natural and homegrown way may not be appropriate for certain people and in other cases some people simply may not have time for it and buying a cleansing product may be more appropriate for them than doing it the old-fashioned way. However, in this article I am going to address why doing a total cleanse on your own may be better than some of the seemingly easier and cheaper options available to you.

Cleansing can be done through a variety of means whether it’s juicing, smoothies, raw foods, or just regular exercise and simply eating better. My advice is to try each and every one and see which one is practical and fits into your day-to-day life because I realize not everyone has the money, the means, the energy, or time to do some of the more elaborate of the cleansing routines that are out there. There are however some really great alternatives to some of the more elaborate and complicated routines and cleansing programs out there. For example, if you simply cannot afford or don’t have access to a juicer, you can just go to the store and buy organic juice preferably in a glass bottle if at all possible. The reason why juicing is generally preferred however is because the juice is a lot fresher and also has a lot of enzymes which are generally more effective at delivering all those vital nutrients to your body.

A convenient alternative to doing your own smoothies at home however is by going to a juice bar either like a Robeck’s or Jamba Juice as they will often do very tasty and healthy smoothies for you. The problem with going to a juice bar beyond the obvious reason of having to travel there, is because they usually makes smoothies that have a lot more sugar, plus the smoothies are much more expensive than the ones you would make at home. So although you do have some other choices I still advise you to buy a juicer and getting a blender if you plan to do this or any other cleansing routine or method over the long term. While the easy choices may at first seem like the best option the fact is that they are more expensive and less effective over the over the long term. So if time is the issue, check out different cleansing products, if money is the issue, then make sure you save up for a juicer or a blender and simply buy your produce and instead of wasting your money at $6-$7 per juice or per smoothie at a juice bar.
