‘14-Day Juice Cleanse’ recipe


For those who want to know the fruit juicer I used during my '14-Day Juice Cleanse', highly recommended using cold-pressed system!

More info of juicer I used at http://www.giftofideas.com/foodjuicer.html

Ingredients:
Carrot: 2 kg with skin

Red apple: 3, with skin

Green apple: 3, with skin

Lemon: 1/3, squished

Beetroot: 1/3, with no skin


This makes 1 litre of juice, which is the daily minimum (no maximum amount).

Water - drink lots of water 2-3 liters and preferably filtered, to help flush out toxins

Drinking bottles – Stainless steal bottle is preferable over plastic.

Drinking straws - it is best to drink juice through a straw. This helps to slow down the rate to consumption and increases the exposure time of the juice to the salivary enzymes allowing for faster assimilation into your body. Holding the juice in your mouth for a few moments and “chew it” before swallowing will further enhance the action of the enzymes in your mouth.

Himalayan Rock Salt - found at health food shops. 2-3 little rocks every hour or so,placed directly into tongue should your craving arrised.

Apple cider vinegar - always wash your fruits in the sink with 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar for every 1 litre of water. This helps to remove waxes, chemicals, herbicide and pesticides.

OPTIONAL ITEMS:

Young coconut - the water(without the meat) from 1-2 coconuts per day.
Some of benefits of coconut juice is great source of potassium – has more potassium than two bananas which is vital for optimal nerve and muscle function and regulating fluid levels within cells.

* Decrease your meal's portion slowly as the day of fasting come closer to let the body and BRAIN adjusting nicely with no foods at all for 14 days.

** For the first 1-2 days are normally quite critical as our body re-adjust beautifully, and it goes smoothly days after. If you think it's too challenging, you can try 7 days instead of 14 days to start and repeat it again at least 6 months later.

Other than that, what you need are just being PERSISTENT & PERSEVERANCE, nothing else!

*** Note: Should you have any health concern(s)/doubts, please consult your respected health advisor before and/or after, as this recipe is just a guideline I've been using over and over again. And the results are FANTASTIC physically, mentally, and most importantly my spiritually aspects!

Good Luck, and share with me your journey! For more TIPS of how to stick with the plan, click here.
