Nutrition: Is a Juice Detox/Cleanse Healthy?

juicedetox

Time magazine recently ran this piece.  We agree in principle this is applicable to many things you buy premade, one size fits all, etc.

The goal of a detox is to reset and replenish the system. Individualizing it by a person’s individual blood-type, health and overall condition is the defining way to provide the precursor for a “reset.” Any weight-loss experienced is a by-product and often due to fluid retention and other areas of inflammation.

Providing individual high-nutrients targeting health and intestinal health are the priority – anything else is not doing your body any favours and could be in-fact a form of snake-oil…

The body takes a cumulative tool inside from dietary, mental, and physical stresses. The goal is to bring it back to a better spot to cope, and, hopefully instill better habits and nutrition going forward.
