Say Hello To Your Juice Cleanse Guide!
The All You Need To Know About How This Works.
Health Besties,
What is the purpose of doing a juice cleanse anyway? Great question! It's main job is to give your body a break from solid foods, while gently detoxifying, resting digestion, and boosting your immunity so that you can look great & feel energized.
We achieve all of this by providing you with our nutrient-dense juices. In addition to encouraging you to stay hydrated through water & herbal support.
Daily Juice Lineup
You will drink 3 different juices daily, spaced throughout the day. Each juice supports a specific function in your body. Learn more about the juices and their functions mentioned above.
Daily Hydration
-
One (1) gallon of distilled water daily: Sip throughout the day to flush toxins and stay hydrated. Add lemon or cucumber slices if desired.
-
Morning tip: Drink 16–20 oz of warm distilled water with fresh lemon juice first thing in the morning to stimulate digestion and alkalize the body.
Herbal Support Tea (2–3 cups daily)
During your cleanse, you may experience some gas pains during the times that you would normally eat. If so, it would be best to drink herbal teas to calm and soothe your stomach.

Recommended Cleanse Schedule
Move Your Body!
Movement is very beneficial during a cleanse because it helps your body process and release toxins more efficiently, while also keeping your energy levels steady. Here are some key reasons:
1. Supports Detox Pathways
-
Exercise increases circulation, which helps deliver oxygen and nutrients while carrying away waste products.
-
Movement stimulates the lymphatic system (which doesn’t have a pump like the heart), helping your body flush out toxins more effectively.
2. Boosts Digestion & Elimination
-
Gentle movement like walking or stretching supports healthy digestion.
-
It can also help prevent bloating or constipation, which sometimes occur during a cleanse.
3. Increases Energy
-
Even light exercise helps fight fatigue by improving oxygen flow and endorphin release.
-
This prevents the sluggish feeling some people experience during a cleanse.
4. Reduces Detox Symptoms
-
Sweating from movement helps eliminate toxins through the skin.
-
Gentle exercise can reduce headaches, tension, and mood swings that may appear while cleansing.
5. Supports Mental Clarity & Mood
-
Movement helps reduce stress and promote calmness through endorphin release.
-
It also supports clearer thinking, which aligns with the mental reset many people seek from cleansing.
The key is gentle, restorative movement, like stretching, walking, or light cardio, rather than intense workouts, since your body is in a cleansing, restorative state.
