Summer is a great time to think about your health, your body and your nutrition. With all the different diets trying to give you that perfect bikini body, you’re never really sure what is right for you. A lot of the times, these diets make you look good on the outside but not on the inside. That’s why this summer instead of looking for a diet, you should be thinking about a detox! A detox will clear your body of all its toxins in a matter of just 3 days. All you have to do is follow these simple guidelines!

Pre-Cleanse (Duration 1-3 Days)

A juice cleanse can be pretty rigorous but if you follow it for a total of 3 days; that’s just enough to clear your body of any toxins that you have built up in your body. Firstly, you have to know that during your cleanse you’ll have a juice only diet! Luckily, the juices will be jam-packed with nutrients and minerals and all the vitamins you’ll need throughout the day so you don’t need to worry about malnutrition. A day or two before you cleanse, you should start up with a vegan diet consuming 6 meals of mostly veggies and fruits throughout the day while hydrating yourself with water. And what this does is: prepare your body for the intake of minerals and vitamins and the new 3-day juice diet.

During Cleanse (Duration 3 Days)

During your cleanse, you are supposed to consume a minimum of 6 juices throughout the day every 2 hours. Your diet will be composed of only these liquids, but don’t starve yourself! In the beginning of the day, you should pile your juices with green veggies and apples for an energy boost. While in the midday, make sure to add some protein with a drink that is heavy in spinach and kale. In the evenings, a mild blend with coconut water will be best. You can make your juices in two ways: 1. At home using a blender/slow pressed juicer by finding the recipes that suit you online 2. Pick up a juice cleanse plan from InSeason Juice Bar to adhere to. If you’re into making your own juices and want to save on cash, the first option is the one for you, and you can even prepare them at night to have with you throughout the day. If you’re not into the hassle of making your own juices, InSeason a juice bar in Zamalek and Heliopolis has well-crafted juice cleanse plans that start at 160 L.E and can go up to 290 L.E. with drink scheduling and all the juices you’ll need.

Post-Cleanse (Duration 1-3 Days)

This part of the cleanse is as important as the cleanse itself. You need to be careful of what you start eating when you come off your juice cleanse. You will definitely be tempted to go heavy and head to your nearest McDonald’s but be aware that your stomach will not be adjusted to indulging in meats that quickly! We recommend eating veggies and fruits the first day you come off your cleanse before reintroducing meats and poultry back into your diet.

If you follow this regimen, you’ll definitely begin to feel that your body is a lot lighter since cleansing not only has an effect on your appearance but your body’s digestion as well!
