Whole Body Juice Cleanse – Why Juicing is The Quickest Method

There are tons of different cleansing products, diets, plans, and methods out there that you could spend many weeks if not months investigating what might be the best option. In reality, if you’re looking to detox your body the quickest and most effective method is a whole body juice cleanse. There is a reason that juicing is the most effective means of cleansing your colon and detoxing your body, and this is primarily For two simple reasons; fresh juice has like active enzymes which actually help to facilitate proper absorption of all those vital nutrients and vitamins, but also the juice itself has little to no fiber, and this allows for the body to have to use minimal energy to obtain the nutrients and thus it benefits more.

The first point that needs to be made here is that a whole body juice cleanse will be vastly more effective if the juice that’s being ingested is fresh and organic. As stated above enzymes are what help to allow your body to absorb all the nutrients in the juice itself. Bottled juice has to be pasteurized by law (and for good reason) to prevent harmful bacteria from staying present or growing due to unsanitary conditions at the facility in which it was made and processed, unfortunately this process kills the good bacteria and enzymes along with the good, and as a result, not only does the juice taste subpar, but most people expel the vitamins and minerals through waste due to poor absorption, this obviously defeats the point of cleansing which is to minimize the workload on your digestive system while still delivering higher and more pure doses of the much needed nutrients our body craves.

The second reason why juicing is widely considered to be superior to using other methods like making smoothies, is because of the removal of the fiber during the juicing process. The removal of the fiber is key to drastically reducing the workload on the digestive system, and it means that more juice passes directly to the lower intestine where much of the absorption takes place. This can’t happen with smoothies because you’re getting the fiber along with the nutrients, but the fiber takes up a lot of the real estate and reduces the absorption rate along with also making the body SPEND more energy (using all the nutrients you’re trying to take in to process the smoothie). This is inefficient and a much slower and less effective cleanse, many choose it because it is gentler, and fiber IS important to have, but when you’re trying to get the quickest results, juicing is the only way to go.

Recipes for Total Body Cleanse Routines

There is nothing written in stone that says you have to do an organic total body cleanse one way or the other, but it can be really hard to get out of a recipe rut, or you simply may be too new to cleansing to know which ingredients would be best for your juice or for your smoothies. There are tons of different combinations and ultimately what you decide to go with is up to you, should you decide a cleansing product is easier for you because there is less effort, planning, or whatever the reason may be, then be sure to try some of the products available, but otherwise I’ll detail some simple recipes for total body cleanse results without having to buy any products.

If you plan on doing juicing as your primary cleansing routine, then I advise that you stick with a couple “base” veggies as your main juices and then build from there. I will not advise you to put two parts this or one part that, as servings, tastes, and personal preference really override that, so I’m going to advise on what types of veggies you juice, not how much you juice. The most effective cleansing juice combination I’ve used and have recommended for others is not known for its awesome taste, but it is known for its potent effects. My basic recipe involves using a whole beet, as well as a fresh whole cucumber or two, along with carrots, and this can vary in amount, but just be sure to get all three in there, as these veggie juices have a synergistic effect and enhance each other’s cleansing abilities, plus they are common veggies and are generally accessible to everyone, so this is an ideal concoction. If you want to add some sweetness to the mix to reduce the vegetable taste, I recommend adding either pear juice or apple juice as they both mix very well without being overwhelming.

If you intend to do smoothies as your cleansing routine, or are doing it in addition to juicing, you’re in luck, because unlike juicing, these smoothies contain all the fiber juicing removes so you do not need to be nearly as picky about what produce you use, but I do have some recommendations to get the biggest nutritional bang for your buck. I recommend ALWAYS using organic wild blueberries, and then any other types of berry varieties you like, I stress berries because juicing them is not practical because of the level of fruit it would take to make the juice but, they are great for blending, and berries are one of the most nutritionally dense fruits of any kind.

One of the great recipes for total body cleanse results is the combination of blueberries, elderberries, aronia berries (or chokeberry as its otherwise known), and either blackberries, or raspberries, along with a whole banana for potassium and a thicker more consistent smoothie. If you really feel like stacking up on the fiber and nutrition, throw in some greens like spinach or kale to increase the nutritional boost and get you daily greens in as well through a tasty means instead of trying to chew it all like a farm animal. Be sure to always be local and organic when possible and experiment for what tastes and benefits you most.

Cleansing Green Smoothies

Smoothies can be a really healthy and equally tasty alternative to all sorts of treats like ice cream, fatty and processed yogurts, jello, pudding, and many more. But wouldn’t it be great if these could provide an even bigger health impact on our bodies then what most would think to make? Well these power packed smoothies are affectionately known as the green smoothie in most health circles, and it has started to catch on in the mainstream. What makes these smoothies so much more potent than a traditional fruit smoothie is that they contain greens. These greens can be either one or a mixture of any you like some of the most common and healthful of the bunch are greens like kale, chard, spinach, and many more. Blenders exist now that can mince these hearty leaves into a fine consistency that ends up mixing within a fruit smoothie, and the natural sugars from the fruits end up covering up the taste of the greens, so it’s a win-win recipe.

Another great function of these cleansing green smoothies is their ability to help cleanse the colon. The primary reason these act as great colon cleansers is because fruits are naturally very cleansing to begin with but also beyond the high fiber content of the whole blended fruit itself, you get the added boost of fiber made by the addition of greens to your smoothies. This incredibly high fiber content provided you have multiple servings can nearly complete and sometimes exceed your total daily recommended serving for fiber! This is amazing to get in a tasty sweet treat! This fiber is going to allow your body to naturally push through clogged fecal matter and after regular use every day and keep your bowel movements regular and efficient.

These cleansing green smoothies can be made every single day, and if you buy the right blender, you’ll find they are incredibly easy to make, affordable to do, and easy to clean up. I personally recommend the total blender from blendtec, its pricey at around 400$ as of this writing, but it is very much worth it, this is the same blender used in juice shops like jamba juice, its industrial quality. This blender is the most powerful on the market, and its super easy to clean, myself and my friends all enjoy it because of how quick it is to clean, just squeeze a few drops of soap, pulse the blender and rinse and your done! This will make it so blending doesn’t feel like a chore every day, but something you look forward to, so here’s to your health!
