Cleanses FAQs

A juice cleanse is a period during which you replace solid food with cold-pressed juices, giving your digestive system a complete rest. Because digestion requires a significant amount of the body's energy, removing that demand allows your body to redirect energy towards repair, cellular renewal and the elimination of accumulated waste. The concentrated influx of raw nutrients from cold-pressed juices floods your cells with vitamins, minerals and enzymes in a highly bioavailable form — meaning they're absorbed far more easily than nutrients from solid food.

Some hunger is natural, especially on the first day, as your body adjusts to the absence of solid food. Our cleanse programs are carefully designed with 6-7 bottles per day plus a morning lemon water ritual, providing your body with a consistent stream of nutrients throughout the day. The Green Smoothie in particular is designed to be satisfying and filling. Most people find any hunger passes after Day 1 and is replaced by a sense of lightness and increased energy.

Light exercise — walking, yoga, stretching — is absolutely fine and can actually enhance the cleansing process by supporting circulation and lymphatic drainage. We recommend avoiding intense high-output training during a cleanse as your caloric intake is reduced. Listen to your body and rest when needed.

Juice cleansing is not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding women. People with diabetes, kidney disease or other medical conditions, or those taking regular medications, should consult their doctor before starting a cleanse. If you have a history of disordered eating, we also recommend seeking professional guidance before beginning. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have specific health concerns — we're always happy to help you make the right decision.

For the best results, we recommend preparing your body in the 2-3 days before your cleanse begins. Gradually reduce caffeine, alcohol, processed foods, red meat and refined sugars. Increase your water intake and eat lighter, plant-based meals. This gentle transition makes the cleanse itself significantly more comfortable and effective.

The way you break a cleanse is just as important as the cleanse itself. Reintroduce solid food gradually — start with fresh fruit, light salads, steamed vegetables and broths on Day 1 after your cleanse. Resist the urge to immediately return to heavy or processed foods, as this can cause digestive discomfort. Many people find the heightened sensitivity to flavour and energy after a cleanse becomes a natural motivator to maintain healthier eating habits.

Many of our customers do a 1-Day cleanse monthly as a regular reset, and a 3-Day or 5-Day cleanse seasonally. There are no hard rules — it depends on your health goals, lifestyle and how your body responds. We recommend listening to your body and consulting a health professional if you plan to cleanse frequently.

Starting each cleanse day with 50ml of our Pure Lemon diluted in good quality spring water is an intentional and important first step. Lemon is a supreme alkaliser and detoxifier — this morning ritual activates the liver, kick-starts the elimination process and prepares the digestive system to receive the nutrients in the juices that follow throughout the day.
