Can I eat salad on a juice cleanse?

If I eat a light salad, will it totally mess it up? Not at all. In fact you can still consider yourself on a The Juice Cleanse as you are still eating a plant-based, predominantly raw diet. However, the less you eat the less stress there will be on your digestive system.

How do you make your juice?

Cold-pressed is best! And we use one. Our Hydraulic Cold Press liberates the nutritional enzymes from the fibres of the produce and then puts them under extreme pressure. As the hydraulic press does not force air into the juice during pressing, the juice does not decay as fast, so you're left with a higher mineral content.

Do you use organic produce?

Yes. We support both local and organic farming practices. We ensure our twelve most-used ingredients (the dirty dozen) are organic. We strive to keep the same policy with other ingredients, availability permitting.

How long do the juices last?

Cold pressing ensures the most nutritious and live juice possible. Keep it with confidence for up 72 hours.

Why don't you give all the juices at once?

We designed our delivery schedule to ensure you get the freshest juice possible – one delivery for the Three-Day Cleanse, two for the Five-Day and three for the Seven-Day.

What are the benefits of a one-day cleanse?

It's like pressing pause for a day. Your body gets 24 hours to rest and heal. It also gets mega amounts of nutrients it can absorb instantly.

Absolutely. We really thought this through. The Juice Cleanse is formulated to work at detoxifying your body in the proper order.

Do you have glass bottles available?

If you would prefer to have your cleanse in glass mason jars, please request that in the order notes section when checking out. There is an additional $12 charge.

Which cleanse should I do?

It's really up to you. But we strongly urge you to select your duration based on your activity level and your goals. Don't jump into the deep end before you're ready. Your budget obviously plays a role as well.

What happens if I am allergic to a certain ingredient?

If you absolutely positively need to cheat, try to eat raw, fresh vegetables and fruit.

Where will I get my protein?

Plants are a fantastic source of protein. Out of the 23 amino acids (the building blocks of proteins) we need to eat, only nine of them are essential meaning that we need to get them from our diet. By consuming a variety of plants, your body will be digesting protein throughout the day. Plus it is actually easier for the body to extract and absorb nutrients from liquefied fruits and vegetable than it is in their raw and cooked forms. To top it off, we added the hemp milk, chai seeds and E3Live juice to add even more amino acids to The Juice Cleanse.
