Hey everyone!

Hope your week has started greatly and you are enjoying your day.

Just like I promised on my social media pages, I am going to share with you

my 7 day juice fast journey.

I am doing it as routinely, actually. This is a great way to jump start

a clean eating regimen, detox, rid your body of toxins, boost your

metabolism and intake a bunch of nutrients, antioxidants and vitamins

during the process.

The keys to remember when juicing is to drink a LOT of water.

This will help you stay hydrated, satiated and flush out toxins out of body.

I love variety in my juices and juice a lot of greens (kale, spinach, chard,

cilantro, basil, parsley, etc.);

berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, blackberries;

fruits and vegetables; ginger, jalapeños and cayenne peppers…

The key is not to mix fruit with vegetables, the neutral fruits that are ok

to mix with vegetables are all citrus, apples and pears.

Mixing the rest can cause bloating.

So, today was the first day and it went great!

I didn’t drink enough water and will get on it tomorrow.
