3 Day Juice Cleanse and It's Benefits

 

First of no I'm no doctor I'm just talking from experience so do not come at me nutritionists😭😂.

I try to do juice cleanses quarterly every year but you can do them as often as you like monthly also.

What exactly is a juice cleanse? It's when your diet consists only if fruit and veggies for the whole period which the cleanse lasts which for me is 3 days. So choose any 3 consecutive days of the week that feel comfortable for you to do it, I prefer during the weekdays.

How I determine when I want/need to do a juice cleanse:

• When I feel bloated all the time
• Craving sugary things which make this experience especially harder
• Feeling constantly tired
• When my skin looks dull or irritated
• When my allergies are heightened
• Over sweating
• Mood swings

PS. Some of these may happen if you're on your period or before for the ladies but I think you can tell the difference.

So, I had tried starting this week but I thought it is better to do it with you guys:)(I fell into temptation on the first day is the real reason😂)

OK, so my plan is fruit juice for breakfast, a fruit for lunch then vegetables for dinner and we are going to be using the fruits in season and available. If you want a sweetener you can use honey not sugar.

A good combination of fruits for the juices I like are:

Pineapple, cucumber, passion fruit and honey

Kale, green apples, cucumber and lemon

Mangoes and ginger 

Watermelon and lemons

Fruit salads work as well if a blender is not available and works just as well. Just cut up the fruit and mix them all together.

Juice cleanses help in improving overall gut health and improves my mental health drastically. I mean what is the harm in trying it it's just fruit right?

Tell me on the everythingmelaninblog page on insta if you have any good combinations so we can all try and if it help, please make sure to share the blog with friends:) Have a nice week guys💛
