A juice cleanse can generally comprise of either vegetable juice or fruit juice, I tend to find and often advocate as well that people use both kinds of juices but that they lean towards the vegetable juice side of the scale. This is primarily due to the fact that the vegetable juice has much lower sugar content overall and as such is much healthier for your body and greater doses than fruit juice would be. The reason I advocate using fruit juice as well is because many people simply find the taste of many vegetable juices, especially vegetable juice blends, to be too unpalatable and that mixing the vegetable juice along with a fruit juice like apple juice or pear juice tends to mask the flavor of the vegetables much more and make the juice much more pleasant to the taste buds. Vegetable juices tend to act as the nurturers, while fruit juices tend act as the cleansers, so by doing both you get the benefits of both types of produce while also making the juice that you’re going to be drinking on a regular basis for your juice cleansing diet much more palatable.

The core reason why a juice colon cleanse is the most potent type of cleanse is because there is no fiber and because while doing the juice cleansing whether its a lemon juice cleanse or any other type,you’re not eating any solid food for a few days, and its this food and fiber that can sometimes get in the way of nutrient absorption. So as a result all of the juice nutrients that would normally pass rate for your system or simply not get absorbed all a way become much more bioavailable to your colon and those more available to your whole body. I generally always advise using a juicer and juicing your own vegetable juice and fruit juice, as this kind of juice is a “live” juice with active enzymes and more bioavailable nutrients than thus much more nutritionally beneficial. But if you’re unable to do juicing yourself, be sure to always use pure organic and on concentrated vegetable and fruit juices when bought from the store, and always make sure to put a preference in glass bottle packaging over plastic bottles to avoid plastic leaching and worsened taste.

If you do a celery cleanse, I advise getting the entire stalk end the leaves attached to it because quite a bit of the nutrition is as usual in the leaves themselves. This awesome vegetable has a lot of nutritional value, for example the celery leaves themselves have very high levels of vitamin A. This stems or stocks as they are otherwise known are also nutritionally dense as well; they are a fantastic source of B. vitamins such as vitamins B1, B2, B6, as well as a healthy dose of vitamin C too. The reason these are so valuable for cleansing is because if you decide to juice celery your releasing all the nutrients from the fiber or if you choose to blend the celery are getting the benefit of the fiber as well by allowing your: to pass waste more efficiently so it’s a win-win situation. Another fantastic plus to doing a celery cleanse is that for those of you who are sensitive to sodium, the natural organic sodium or salt that is contained within celery is extremely safe to eat or consume and is in fact a vital to the body, this is good news for those who are salt sensitive and it is one of the reasons why it’s a great veggie for those with high blood pressure.

The other health benefits to doing a celery juice cleanse on a regular basis along with other vegetables is that it helps to not only clean the colon physically but also provides other benefits to the body as well such as; the prevention in formation of various colon and stomach cancers, lowering blood pressure, acting as a diuretic to flush excess water and waste, lower LDL cholesterol, improve kidney function, reduce inflammation, and help with the acidity and pH balance of the body.

One of the primary reasons why beetroot juice is one of the most effective cleansing juices available today is because of all the important nutrients found therein. Some of these nutrients are but are not limited to, sodium, vitamins A and C, biotin, calcium, iron, magnesium, folic acid, phosphorus, and potassium to name a few. It also contains something called glycine betaine, this is a chemical compound that was found in sugar beets in the 19th century. This chemical has been particularly noted for its ability to stimulate liver cells. This is incredibly important because it is the liver that does the majority of the detoxification process within your entire body and all the beetroot juice cleansing does is support the liver so it can do its job.

When combined with other juices like carrot juice, these two juices can synergistically become a potent tonic for overall liver health. When you address liver health first your overall and your future detox’s end up being much more efficient because once again you’re allowing your main detoxify organ which is your liver to work as it should instead of being bogged down by chemicals, toxins, pesticides, and other harmful elements. As always I recommend getting your beetroot juice via juicing organic beetroots. You’re likely to get the best quality beetroot this way, which you would want when you’re using these vegetables to cleanse your body and not just for general consumption. Also be sure to wash your vegetables thoroughly with a veggie wash that you can get at any organic produce store or health food store. Drink beetroot juice during cleansing and with meals to help with digestion and you’ll keep your whole body as well as your liver in tiptop shape.

The biggest advantage to doing vegetable juice cleansing is that you can get a huge amount of servings of vegetables into your system quickly without having to consume and I’m realistic amount of raw vegetables, which if you were to try and do would equal multiple pounds in many plates of raw vegetables, this is obviously not practical for most people including the most stalwart of vegetarians and vegans let alone the average person who’s just trying to become healthier. Which brings us to why we are focusing on the vegetable juice cleansing consider fruit juice cleansing; this is because our ultimate goal is to help repair and nourish our bodies. While fruit juice is generally considered the tastier option it’s filled with sugar and acts more like a cleanser or preparation juice for the real workhorse which is vegetable juice.

The reason why vegetable juice cleansing works is because vegetables contain a lot of the nourishing vitamins, minerals, and nutrients that help repair all the various organs that are the primary sources of body detoxification primarily the liver and kidneys. Essentially what we are trying to do with the vegetable juice cleanse is give our liver of the opportunity to really do the detoxification, not juice itself. The vegetable juice is just a means of getting the liver and healthy state to begin the total cleanse process within the body when it normally wouldn’t have that opportunity due to poor diet. I generally advise drinking vegetable juice at least once or twice a day in general but when doing it with a cleanse you want to make sure you have it with every raw meal or just by itself, the latter of which is more effective and this is normally considered to be a juice fast. If you are going to go on a juice fast I advised you have released a minimum of three days to seven days. You’ll find information on how to juice fast on other parts of the site.
