With the beautiful weather we have been experiencing, it's hard to keep on track with your diet. Snacks by the pool, cooling ice-creams, endless BBQ's and daily happy hours can become overwhelming. I met O2 Living at the Jamie Oliver Food Revolution in May, where I sampled their Red Radiance (Beet, Apple and Strawberry). The first thing I noticed on the label was - 100% cold pressed organic juice - great. There are no preservatives and 0g of added sugar. That was me sold, the juices taste delicious and in my opinion are worth the $10 ticket price for 16fl oz. Best of all you can be new to cleansing, like me and start off with the 1-day to regularly kick start your body.
The Flexible Cleanse
It comprises of 6 portions of four different juices. Perfect for first time juice cleansers, seasoned juice cleansers and everyone in between! It all depends on the number of days you choose.
Each Day Contains:
2 x Green Vitality
2 x Fresh Start
1 x Red Radiance
1 x 1 Carrot Kick
1-DAY JUICE CLEANSE ($60)
The 1 day Juice Cleanse is a perfect introduction to the benefits of juice cleansing or for anyone who wants to do regular maintenance.
3-DAY JUICE CLEANSE ($180)
At 3 days, the body begins to expel toxins and heal itself. The 3 Day Juice Cleanse is a great starting point for people new to juice cleansing.
5-DAY JUICE CLEANSE ($300)
At 5 days, the body has ample time to heal and detox itself. The 5 Day Juice Cleanse is best for people who have prior juice cleansing experience.
7-DAY JUICE CLEANSE ($420)
Prior to the Cleanse
Two to three days prior to starting the juice cleanse, it is recommended that you begin to eliminate certain items from your diet. Removing such will provide you with the optimum effect from the cleanse experience:
- Dairy
- Flour
- Caffeine
- Sugar
- Meat
- Alcohol
Where this is not possible, we suggest you do this for at least 24 hours before beginning.
During the Cleanse
Each morning you begin your day with an 8 oz. glass of warm purified water with lemon or lime. This alkalizing effect on the body will help balance you for the start of your day.
Depending on your schedule, you should take your first juice anytime between 8am and 10am. Each drink should thereafter be spaced 2-3 hours apart.
Be sure to take in at least 64 oz. of water throughout the day; this will help keep you hydrated and also support the cleansing process. You may also add non-caffeinated herbal teas throughout the day.
During your cleanse, we recommend you follow a certain protocol to assist in the detoxification process. Certain natural supplements and attributes can be added to your daily schedule to help optimize the cleanse experience.
New Canaan Health Fare and Garelick & Herbs currently stock these juices. I will let you know how my first ever cleanse went!
