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💛

The Perfect Hair Washday

Washing your hair can be a daunting task. That's why when you do it, you should make it count. Set aside a day when you do not have anything else to do and make a playlist of your favorite songs. You can also make it a full TLC day. Do a body scrub after to get that hair product off your body y'know. Ok, step 1  make sure you have all your hair products ready, these include shampoo, conditioner, deep conditioner, leave in conditioner and oil . Step 2 ,you can soften your hair with a conditioner(not deep conditioner) before you start to  wash your hair, this helps with hair softening before you start the shampooing process which can prove to be drying to your hair.

This will prevent tangles during the shampooing process which is  Step 3 . Before you apply shampoo to your hair make sure you completely drench your hair with wa...

Hair Mistakes I Made So You Don't Have To

There is so much you need to do just to maintain healthy hair. But, it is all about getting a routine, a simple one that you can be consistent with in the long run. Enough about that, today we are talking about things you should not do for healthier hair. So be prepared to be triggered a little with things I know you do👀. But don't be too hard on yourself, you didn't know better:)I am tagging myself as well. Combing my hair when its dry is an absolute no. Why? Well, dry hair equals brittle hair which makes it susceptible to easy breakage. The best way to do it is while it's damp since it has most elasticity then. Using rubber bands on hair . This is a big no no. Rubber bands tend to pull and cut hair so avoid them completely. Use proper hairbands preferably those without the little metal plate. Protective styles that are too tight . Just thinking about this gives me a headache😭. I mean, why do we do this, it's just unnecessary, especially around the edges. Having tho...
