Detoxing the Body by Juice Fasting

By Jay Collins

Detoxifying by juice fasting is gaining in popularity as more and more people are looking to get rid of the toxins in the body. A lot of people want to get rid of these toxins to make them feel generally better. These toxins can accumulate in the body causing you to feel tired and sluggish and they can also affect the immune system. Better health and the sensation of more energy is often reported by people who cleanse by juice fasting. It is also a good way to detox as fruit is readily available and relatively cheap.

If you are just starting out on juice fasting it is vital to start slowly on this quest and initially just try it out for one day. Remember, you will only be taking in juice for one day. Diabetics need to be careful as fruits are high in sugar. it is advisable to consult your physician first before embarking on a fruit fast. I would not recommend juice fasting for more than three days at a time. If you do decide to, I would, again, consult your physician first to discuss.

I have compiled some good recipes below which are great combinations of fruit and vegetables to get you started on your fast:

Recipe 1: This is a great drink with a combination of different vegetables. Three carrots, one celery stalk, two swiss chard leaves, a few sprigs of watercress, a celery stalk and half a beetroot. Wash, dice and juice is all that is needed. Quick and delicious.

recipe 2: This is a simple and delicious recipe of three apples, a few leaves of basil and just one carrot. As above, wash with distilled water, chop and put through the machine.

Recipe 3: This is a carrot juice with a little extra. Mix together a handful of dandelion leaves. mint, basil, one kale leaf, four carrots and coriander leaves and just juice for a quick drink.

Recipe 4: Adding four peaches into the juicer makes a very simple but surprisingly cleaning juice.

There are a lot of different types of juice fasts that you will find on your searches. Some call for just fruit juices only whilst others use less sugary vegetable juice combinations. It is very easy to come up with your own favorite combination of fruit and vegetable juice diet recipes. - 17273
