cleanse logistics:
Before beginning a cleanse, you want to prepare your system by moving towards fresh, raw foods:
- dehydrated foods are high in nutrient content.
- after freezing, food retains 70-95% nutritional value.
- lightly steamed food are okay; most nutritional value is gone when steamed food gets limp and
loses color.
- NO microwaving; commercially canned food, fried food and microwaved leftovers have lost close
to 100% of their nutritional value.
- Overcooking (baking, broiling, grilling and steaming for too long) reduces nutrition and makes
food more difficult to process.
- Limit the following items as much as possible, as they contribute to an acidic environment: meat,
dairy, bread, pasta, potatoes, baked goods, tobacco, alcohol, recreational drugs, coffee, most teas,
fast food, processed food, sugar, artificial sweeteners, soft drinks, sports drinks, stress,
negativity, sedentary lifestyle.
- Foods to focus on: greens, leafy greens, vegetables, fruits, seaweeds, avocado, young coconut,
evoo, flax, grape seed, hemp, almond, cashew, chia, macadamia, pumpkin, sesame, buckwheat,
lentils, gluten free oats, quinoa, wild rice, apple cider vinegar, sea salt, cinnamon, lavender, miso,
sauerkraut, vanilla, herbal teas, young Thai coconut water, bee pollen, local raw honey, spirulina,
wheat grass. Stick to this list especially if you are going to supplement your cleanse with some
raw food.
Hydrate, hydrate and then hydrate some more:
- Half of your body weight in ounces daily is optimal (ie 100oz water for a 200lb person). You may
count freshly extracted fruit and vegetable juices, herbal teas and young Thai coconut water
towards your daily optimal intake.
- Symptoms of dehydration: weakness, fatigue, impaired memory and concentration, drowsiness,
impatience and irritability, headache, brain fog, short term memory loss, trouble articulating, light-
headedness, cold hands and feet, anxiety, depression.
Staying detoxed after your cleanse:
- Set a goal of 80% of your diet to consist of whole, fresh, raw, ripe, organic foods (from Foods to
focus on list above). Use common sense for the remaining 20%. Limit your exposure to
environmental toxins as much as possible. Influence others rather than being under their
influence. Be prepared - make a plan, commit and re-commit to yourself and your health, lead by
example, surround yourself with the positive, attend to your spiritual needs, get adequate sleep,
breathe, exercise daily, filter your water......

the best juice cleanse requires the best juicer
Through heightened awareness about the benefits of juice cleanses, more health minded individuals are seeking a viably pure way to lose weight, detoxify the body and effectively achieve greater overall wellness.
Unfortunately, consumers initially shopping for "healthy" fruit and vegetable juices readily available at supermarkets, convenience stores, fitness centers or other health establishments for improved well being are buying juice products not essentially prepared to provide maximum nutrition (think HPP).
One critical factor to securing the best quality juice is through the process of extraction. The Norwalk Juicer, a hydraulic grind and press, is considered to be one of the finest elite juicers available. And for those of you being misinformed by the other guys, Norwalk does not make a large commercial press.
The Norwalk Juicer was developed over 80 years ago by raw food juicing pioneer Dr. Norman Walker. From his original two stage grind and cold press juicing invention, the Norwalk Juicer has remained virtually the same. The Norwalk completely and safely extracts all beneficial vitamin, mineral and enzyme elements from fruits and vegetables with little to no heat. Therefore, nutrient oxidation and decomposition from cold pressing is extremely minimal.
The Pudding:
A professional lab test was conducted to compare the "quality" of juice extracted between the Norwalk and two other types of leading juicers:
-Centrifugal: The most commonly available juicer. Operating at high speeds to grind and separate juice from fruits and vegetables.
-Homogenizer: Uses a powerful, slow turning motor to separate juice from fruits and vegetables. This type of juicer is also used to make baby food and nut butters through homogenization.
Equal five pound samples of carrots, parsley and celery were individually juice between a Centrifugal juicer (A), a Homogenizing juicer (B) and the Norwalk Juicer (N). The following are the lab tested results:
