What Is A Juice Cleanse?

Over the past few years you’ve probably heard about juice cleanses even if you weren’t listening. They have become a popular way to detox your body.  During a juice cleanse, which can last anywhere from a few days to weeks, your only source of nutrition is fruit and vegetable juices. You abstain from eating food.  People who have done cleanses report several benefits including improved health, appearance, and mood. It is not usually recommended that you “jump into” a cleanse without some professional guidance. Here at Urban Vybe we are offering a 3-day juice cleanse beginning Sunday May 15^th, 2016.

The Why

People often decide on a juice cleanse because they haven’t been feeling as energetic and healthy as usual. They often feel sluggish and bloated, have become dependent on junk food and caffeine, and maybe have even stopped exercising. In such cases, they use the juice cleanse as a way to turn things around, rid their body of toxins, regain balance, and jump-start living healthy again.

The What

Juice cleanses eliminate toxins from your body, and are said to help unleash your body’s natural healing power. Our body is made to cleanse itself. It is always in a natural “detox” mode, but juicing may help boost that.

How many people actually eat fruits and veggies? Juicing is a way to suffuse your system with powerful nutrients and antioxidants that most people don’t normally get. It may also be the first step toward a long-lasting lifestyle change. In fact, juicing for 3 days can help you lose four pounds, half of which are kept off long-term.  Most juices contain ingredients such as kale, spinach, green apples, red apples, cucumbers, celery, carrots, lettuce, beets, lemon, and ginger and may even help you to retrain your taste buds. Juicing may also reduce your psychological dependence upon food. In the long run, it is said that you can feel better mentally, and that your body can feel better internally and externally. At the very least, juicing cleanses and balances your digestive system.
