Raw Juice Cleanse: How Do You Prepare?
A pre-cleanse focuses on consuming primarily raw foods like salads, fruits, smoothies, and cold-pressed fresh juices while drinking plenty of water. As part of your preparation, aim to drink half your body weight in ounces of water daily, which we recommend during the cleanse. In addition, focus on alkaline-promoting foods such as fresh fruits, raw vegetables, salad greens, sprouts, dates, dried apricots, figs, melons, raisins, and lentils.
HOW TO PREPARE FOR A JUICE CLEANSE
Â
Preparing for a juice cleanse is key to ensuring a smooth and successful experience. Begin with a pre-cleanse by eating raw foods, drinking plenty of water, and eliminating heavy proteins, processed foods, and caffeine from your diet. Focus on alkaline-forming foods like fresh fruits and vegetables to support your body. Herbal teas such as green tea, lemongrass tea, rooibos tea, and dandelion tea offer great alternatives to coffee, helping to cleanse and nourish the body. A juice cleanse is an opportunity to detoxify, restore balance, and strengthen the immune system while embracing nature’s healing energy. Take this time to nurture yourself—you deserve it!
