i have done quiet a few different detoxes / cleanses over the years and today i decided to put together a few of my favorite juices to kick start my weekend off with.
i will normally drink up to six juices in a day, but you could have more or less if you prefer. i just find that when the hunger kicks in i'd rather make another juice instead of trying to ride out the hunger pang and give into something not so juicy.

| beet, carrot, apple & mint |
these are the juices that i have been doing today:
1/2 pineapple and 1 piece of ginger
2 grapefruit, 3 carrots and 1 piece of ginger
2x 1 beet root, 3 carrots, 1 apple and some mint leaves
1 cucumber, 1/2 broccoli head, 4 celery sticks and some mint leaves (definitely the greenest of the lot and not really a favorite, but the vitamins and minerals this juice packs is definitely worth it.)
3 carrots, 1 cup spinach leaves, 3 celery sticks and one apple
i also bought some fresh pomegranates yesterday so i will be treating myself this evening before bed to the sweet ariels inside the fruit.
i do have a juicer at home, this is an investment that i made quiet a few years ago and i have never regretted it. i find that its best to make your juices from scratch the store bought ones have too many added artificial colours, preservatives and sugars, which are doing the complete opposite to cleansing.
if you don't have a juicer, don't despair there are plenty of other great ways to do a cleanse day, click here to try this one. or you could even buy a fresh made juice from a cafe in the morning to start you off and then stick to fresh vegetables and salads for the rest of the day.
just remember that you should always do your own research before giving this a go, this is something that i have found works for me, but it may not work for you.
happy cleansing
