THE BASICS Drink six to
eight juices per day, about
eight to 10 ounces each,
keeping to a ratio of 80%
vegetables and 20% fruit.
PRE-CLEANSE Prepare
your body for the shock of
an all-juice diet by weaning
yourself off heavy meals and
start getting into the routine of
eating mostly fruits and veggies.
Also, try substituting a meal
with just a juice, it's a great way
to practice some recipes and
find the ones you like.

all the harmful toxins, but also floods
your body with nutrients.*
Three-Day
J
uice Cleanse
Add ginger and
lemon for some
added cleansing
benefits.
If hunger persists,
try incorporating
half a banana or
half an avocado
into your day.
Enjoy juices
within 48 hours,
otherwise they
begin to oxidize
and lose some of
their nutritional
value.

potato-based juice, which has
a higher calorie count, to help
ease hunger pangs.
• 4 Raw Sweet Potatoes
• 2 Carrots
• 1 Tablespoon Ginger
• ½ Teaspoon Turmeric
• Dash of Cinnamon
POST-CLEANSE Ease
back into solid foods. Star t
with soups, salads and lean
meat or fish. Replenish any
vital bacteria that may have
been lost by incorporating
probiotic-rich foods such as
yogur t, pickles and
sauerkraut.
HELPFUL TIPS
• Stay hydrated with
herbal teas and warm
water with lemon to
prevent headaches
and ease hunger.
• Juicing can be time-
consuming, so prepare
your drinks the night
before so you can just
grab and go.
• Support is key! Find a
friend to do the cleanse
along with you to help
you stay on track and
reach your goals.

*If this cleanse doesn't feasibly fit into your
busy lifestyle or seems a little too drastic,
simply drinking a lot of water and
increasing your daily intake of the super
foods listed here can do the job just fine.
