Juice detoxing is an expressive way to bring the vitality of raw fruit and vegetable juices into your diet, and is a well-known healing therapy that’s been used through the ages. Even the Greek philosophers Socrates and Plato recommended detoxing, or fasting, for increased mental and physical effectiveness.
Think of juice detoxing as a healing cycle, which cleanses and reenergizes the body, providing it with nutritional support and vitality. Let’s explore these two actions in greater detail:
Maintaining a healthy liver is one of the most important things you can do for your body. Why? The liver is a vital organ that serves multiple functions. As an organ of detoxification, it cleanses the bloodstream and helps filter waste products, bacteria, and harmful substances like toxic chemicals from the body.
It metabolizes fats, carbohydrates, and proteins that help the body function properly. Plus, it stores vital nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and glycogen (a blood-sugar regulator) and delivers them for use to every cell of the body.
Most people hop out of bed in the morning and grab a coffee – often sweetened and thickened with cream – then look around the kitchen for more sweetness, figuring that’s the energy boost they need to start the day.
Unfortunately, for most of us, that craving for “sweet” doesn’t leave much room for vegetables.
Stay home (or go away) and do a juice fast: Juice fasting is a great way to tune up the body from the inside out. While it cleanses your internal organs and systems, it also promotes weight loss, makes your skin glow, and leaves you feeling energized.
Once you introduce juice fasting into your life routine, you’ll start to notice positive changes on all levels of your being. You may feel more physically energized, more mentally alert, or your moods may be lighter and brighter.
We know that we need to change our diets to avoid sugar, dairy, processed oils and white flour. These products can cause aging and disease, and their elimination can cause miraculous healing in those who are suffering from chronic diseases.
These elements promote inflammation and can really do a number on arteries and tissue throughout your body. Make no mistake about it. Sugar and flour are deadly and can ruin your life. in an average year, 160 pounds of sugar and 200 pounds of white flour find their way into our bodies, and our children are exposed to them from an early age.
Within the last couple of generations, we have markedly changed the way that we consume foods and, at this point, we are setting ourselves up for a great many serious, long term Problems.
The nutrients we need are removed from processed foods — basically anything that comes in a box, can or jar.
In place of these essential substances, we add preservatives, artificial flavors and colors — or toxins, which make our bodies work extremely hard to try and detoxify, and even worse, Those Toxic Chemicals in Food That are Causing us to Gain Weight
According to Dr. Norman Shealy, every known illness is associated with a magnesium deficiency and low levels of the hormone DHEA. DHEA is the health and youth hormone. If DHEA is low, magnesium is low.
They go together. Even a 10% increase in magnesium and DHEA levels is associated with a 48% decrease in death from cardiovascular disease and a 36% decrease in mortality: from all causes. The human being has the only body that has a significant level of DHEA.
Have you ever wondered if there is a common cause of disease? Many doctors, herbalists and nutritionists believe that the explanation may come down to three words: acid/alkaline imbalance.
Today, over-acidity is quite common; it’s a dangerous condition that weakens your body’s systems. While a healthy body maintains adequate alkaline reserves to meet its emergency needs, an excess of acid must be neutralized.
Unfortunately, depleted alkaline reserves leave the body weakened, and healthy cells begin to die prematurely. According to many experts, an acid/alkaline balanced diet is the key to staying healthy.
1. If you’re craving, reach for the chia.
Your body is great at telling you something, especially if you’re deficient in certain minerals or vitamins. Your body can send you on a mission to the kitchen, as you crave foodstuffs that will make up for the particular deficiency.
Unfortunately, this can often lead to you eating the wrong foods and/or too much of the wrong thing, especially if you are on a selective diet of some kind.

If you are constipated, your body is not healthy and it’s time to get in line for a cleanse. Chronic constipation is so unhealthy because toxins are formed and absorbed when waste remains in the intestines.
The colon is a natural breeding ground for bacteria. Of the bacteria involved in this melee, some are bad. While the function of the good bacteria is to neutralize and prevent a toxic condition from developing in the colon (a friendly scavenger), there is also bad bacteria of the disease-producing kind (the bad guy).
