“Many people who struggle with digestive issues can have trouble digesting the fibers in fruits and vegetables.” Since juicing removes the fibers, she says a cleanse can be really easy on the digestive system.Īt the end of the day, the best way to determine whether a juice cleanse is right for you is to chat with your doctor about any pre-existing conditions that could adversely interact with ingredients or methods of the cleanse.ĭay in and day out we consume impurities from food, water, and simply being exposed to the air. “They can also be beneficial for giving your digestive system a break,” she adds. “Also, juice cleanses can create a calorie deficit and force the body to run on cortisol, which can be detrimental for anyone struggling with adrenal issues.”Īs a general rule of thumb, Carneiro says that cleanses are safe for those looking for a way to detox from unhealthy foods, alcohol, or an overall unhealthy lifestyle. “I would highly discourage the use of juice cleanses for anyone who struggles with disordered eating or an eating disorder since it can just be an extension of the disorder,” says holistic nutritionist Amanda Carneiro of Raw Fitness and Nutrition. Eating disorders, while not the only concern to mull over when considering going on a juice cleanse, are certainly a determining factor. To determine who cleanses are safe for, we must weed out those that they’re not.
“If we're talking about our intestines, they don't need to be 'cleansed,’” she says, noting that our intestines are not PVC pipes. After all, highly-regimented eating (and drinking) are a major factor in developing eating disorders. On the other end of the spectrum, body-positive nutritionists like Daisy Miller, a non-diet dietitian based in Rockville, Maryland, believe that there is no benefit to going on a juice cleanse. “I find the body reveals a lot during and after a cleanse as far as what is at the root of a person’s symptoms.”
“There are so many benefits but I believe the biggest benefits are that we are allowing the body to rest and refuel with an amount of alkalizing produce that we otherwise would not be able to consume on a regular basis,” she explains. And if that wasn’t enough… we went the extra mile to not use ice in our smoothies, because we think you deserve to get all the nutrition and goodness possible.Depending on who you ask, juice cleanses are either super beneficial or have zero positive effects.Īccording to holistic nutritionist Alle Weil, “Juice cleanses allow the body a break from overburdening it with potentially allergenic and heavy foods and emphasizes easy-to-digest-and-assimilate nutrients from pure and potent fruit and vegetables.”īy drinking the juices, Weil, who specializes in building highly personalized cleanses based on clients’ unique needs, says that you’re able to flush the body not only with nutrients but liquids that help to detoxify bodily systems and hydrate at the same time. This way we know for sure how our ingredients are grown and produced. In fact, we’re so dedicated to using only the best ingredients in our products, we started our own organic farm to source most of the produce and we even make our own Oat and Almond mylks. Our products are gluten-free and never have toxic chemicals, preservatives, additives or added sugar. We work with our holistic award-winning chef to curate every product on our menu. How do we specifically “go the extra mile”? Since then, we’ve dedicated ourselves to going the extra mile to provide our customers with the highest quality, freshest, best tasting organic ingredients in the industry. Raw Jūce began over 7 years ago as the result of the commonsense belief (supported by science) that there is a connection between what we put in our bodies and the strength of our immune systems, overall health and life expectancy.
