Juice fasting: this is how it helps with detoxification

Juice fasting is an alternative to conventional fasting with water or broth. Juice has a high acidity, but it also detoxifies and stimulates digestion. In this practical tip, we explain how juice fasting works.

Fasting juice - how it works

Juice fasting is a kind of therapeutic fasting.

• Many only choose to fast at the weekend or a maximum of three days at a time. For a week, this variant is often too stressful for the stomach. If you are not sure whether the fasting option is suitable for you, talk to your doctor beforehand.
• Juices contain a lot of acid. In the worst case, this leads to stomach problems. Additional risks include headache and fatigue, as the body lacks nutrients after a few days.
• The intestine in motion and toxins are excreted. This type of fasting is particularly suitable for constipation.
• Three to five glasses of juice with approx. 200 - 250 ml per day are recommended. If you stir in some oatmeal, the juice will not hit the stomach too much.
• Drink the juice slowly and in sips. This way you don't put too much strain on your stomach and intestines.
• Many types of juice are suitable for fasting. Whether orange juice, beetroot juice or tomato juice: it is only important that you squeeze out the juices yourself. So they contain many healthy nutrients and are fresh.

So the juice cure purifies

The primary goal is not to lose weight. This is just a side effect, since the calorie intake per day is drastically reduced. Rather, the goal is a complete detoxification of body and mind.

• The juices are said to have a positive effect on the organism. Orange juice lowers cholesterol and cherry juice counteracts rheumatism and joint pain. Grapefruit juice has a positive effect on insulin levels.
• Fasting not only relieves and purifies the body, but also the soul.
• Take a base bath in addition to the juice detox. The bath stimulates the organism and more toxins are removed from the body.
• A lot of movement is also important. Go jogging or enjoy fresh air while walking or walking. This is how you achieve the optimal effect of the juice treatment.
• Also drink enough water. Two to three liters per day are recommended.
• Optimally fast only two to three days. This way you avoid possible risks such as headache and fatigue and get a quick, detoxifying effect.
