JUSTY Juice cure

A detox programme is healthy for most people. It is an excellent way to support the body and mind and can lead to new healthy living and eating habits. Detoxing through juice fasting is not a good idea for everyone: people with eating disorders should not go on a juice fast. People with severe mental health problems should also consult their doctor first, as a detox programme can be a challenge. Do you take medication on a daily basis? Even then you should always consult your doctor first.

Basically, you can do a detox programme as often as you like. We have customers who do a detox every month and others who do a juice cleanse once a quarter or twice a year. We recommend repeating the detox at least every 6 months, whether you order it from us or prepare it yourself at home. With regular care, you will have a pleasant and enjoyable detox experience. We also recommend regular fasting for people with a healthy lifestyle. During the evolution of the human body, food was never in unlimited supply. In fact, our internal system is set up to live with scarcity from time to time. Juice fasting allows you to mimic this in a natural and healthy way.

The detox programme is experienced differently by everyone. How your body reacts depends on your lifestyle, among other things. People who smoke, drink alcohol and a lot of caffeine, take strong medication and eat an unhealthy diet are likely to experience more side effects than people with a healthy lifestyle. With the right preparation, you can minimise the negative effects of detoxification. When you undergo a detox programme with us, we will provide you with detailed instructions. You may well experience tiredness, headaches or other side effects during the first two days of your detox. Possible side effects of a detox programme range from the most common to the least common: Headaches, sweating, restless sleep (strange dreams and nightmares), extreme cravings for (unhealthy) food/hunger, muscle aches, fatigue, low energy levels, delayed bowel movements, lower back pain, irritation, bloating, nausea/vomiting.

It is perfectly possible to go on a detox juice diet if you have diabetes. This applies to both type 1 and type 2. At Sapje, we work with a maximum fruit juice content of 15%, which means that the juices contain very little natural sugar. You should therefore pay attention to your blood sugar level, which may be lower than normal due to the low sugar content. It is advisable to talk to your doctor beforehand about taking insulin.

Exercise during a detox programme is certainly possible, but should be done with caution. Above all, listen carefully to your body. During fasting, you consume far fewer calories, carbohydrates and proteins than usual, so you cannot expect to maintain your normal level of exercise during the detox programme. We recommend giving your body plenty of rest during a detox programme. The reduced food intake can temporarily throw your body and mind out of balance, so be flexible and make some adjustments to your daily habits. Instead, we recommend relaxed forms of exercise such as walking, leisurely cycling or gentle yoga.
