Drink up to six juices per day. Drink lots of water in between your juices. Eat fresh and raw fruit and vegetables if you are hungry or need to chew. Get as much rest and sleep as you can. If you need to work out, do something light like walking, yoga, or slow swimming.
Here are a few rules of thumb for completing a juice cleanse:
- It doesn't matter what time you drink your juices, just as long as you drink them when you are hungry
- It doesn't matter if you drink each juice in one "sitting" or sip on it, as long as you are drinking majority of the juices each day.
- If you do not finish all 6 each day it is ok. Save them because your hunger level from day to day will fluctuate and you may need more than 6 another day.
- If you are drinking all 6 and still mildly to extremely hungry, eat raw fruit, vegetables, or raw nuts (not roasted or salted). It will not break the cleanse and will help you continue on and complete your cleanse.
- Drink lots of water. Even though you are drinking your meals, your body may become slightly dehydrated due to the fact that it is working so hard to detoxify itself. Drinking water will keep your energy up, keep you fuller longer, and keep away any headaches you might experience. You can add lemon or cucumber to it to aid in detoxification.
