Want to start a juice cleanse to get glowing skin, healthy hair and perhaps shed a few pounds from your winter Chinese-take-out-and-pizza-galore enhanced frame? Read on to see which juice line is for you.
Daily Greens
Founded by cancer survivor Shauna Martin, who used juicing as a way to promote healing, this line of Texan-made juices spotlights unusual flavor combinations that keep you from palatal boredom during cleansing. Our favorites included Vitality, a combination of kale, cucumber, pineapple, jalapeno, cilantro, celery, lime, and Himalayan pink salt, and for ultimate green juice thrill seekers, dive into Purity, loaded with kale, parsley, broccoli, cucumber, celery, lemon, and basil with just the right amount of savory kick to balance out tropical goodness. Drinking your vegetables never tasted this good for hardcore juicers and newbies ready to make a serious (and yummy) plunge into the world of juicing. Learn more about their cleanse guidelines here.
Life Juice
“Ready, set, cleanse” is the motto for the tantalizing assortment of juices that help you get your green (and purple and orange…) on. Oh My Greens melds apple with a variety of greens like kale, parsley and spinach for a nutrient-packed juice, loaded with antioxidants, vitamins B, C and E, calcium, iron and potassium. Happy Belly, a unique cabbage juice, unexpectedly delights your tummy and taste buds with purple cabbage, parsley, apple ginger and lemon. Because of the delectable fruit-infusions in their juices, Life Juice makes a great choice for first-timers. Learn more about their cleanse process here.
Love Grace
Two things everybody lusts after, and if you can find such restoration in a bottle, sign us up! Unique to the cleanse, Love Grace offers superfood smoothies as part of its program. We couldn’t put down the Chocolate Superfood Smoothie with banana, goji berries, cacao, coconut oil and more goodness, as a lovely nightcap after a rewarding day of juicing. Their “sunlight in a bottle” Longevity Tonic with shilajit, an Ayurvedic elixir, may just keep you buzzing like a happy sun-kissed bumble bee all morning long. For a hangover remedy (shhh) their Super Cider with apple, carrot, ginger and lemon may just be your morning after BFF. Try adding a few pinches of chia seeds — which expand in the juice — for a fun sipping texture, as you float along in a cloud of juice-produced buoyancy and lightness.
These juice cleanses to me are nothing but fads. No one can live on these alone for a few days. It will back fire. Now as a snack, that’s okay, as long as its PURE fruit and/or vegetables. But honestly, a cleanse should consist of whole foods such as salads, with olive oil dressing, grilled or steamed fish, etc. Clean, whole foods that will fill you up! There is nothing more satisfying than chewing your food!
