Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is definitely priority and
important to me. Admittedly it isn’t always for me. Sometimes, no matter how
efficiently I try to plan out the week, I find myself grabbing lunch on the
road or stopping on the way home from driving the kids to and from their
activities to pick up dinner. I find myself eating foods that are the
healthiest of choices. As of lately, this has been the norm and I knew it was
time to take control and give my body a bit of a jumpstart. That’s when it was
clear to me that I needed to try a 3-day juice cleanse!
About Jus by Julie
(source: jusbyjulie.com)
As a certified nutritionist, what Julie was drawn from studying many
theories on diets and health is; our bodies need a lot of greens to function at
peak capacity. Though greens aren’t normally our first choice of food, thus
it's hard to get the daily requirement of fiber from just three meals and a few
snacks. To achieve that healthy goal, Julie began to make green smoothies for herself
and husband to drink first thing in the morning.
Soon she discovered that this was practically a miracle in a bottle as
the effects were incredible. The smoothie provided all that much needed fiber,
it was able to tame our sugar cravings, and it gave her family a lot of energy.
Julie felt leaner almost instantly, and amazingly her husband's cholesterol
went down 70 points!
Since, she had been sharing her experiences with friends and beyond,
who all wanted in on this wonder drink. Julie started to get up at four in the
morning to blend and prepare these smoothies, and then before she knew it word
spread and people were calling her for juice. From there on, smoothie-making
has grown into a family business.
ace and friends' thoughts
For me to successfully try and complete a three day cleanse, there were some criteria that had to met before I could begin. First, it had be easy. I don’t have the time, nor the energy to shop at various stores trying to locate some obscure ingredients. Keeping it simple is my theory. Second, if I’m drinking these juices for multiple days, it had to taste delicious (or at most, good) for me to stick it out. Finally, it was important to me that the I could clearly understand the ingredients that were actually in each drink. I didn’t want to invest my time in consuming drinks with a bunch of random *stuff* in it, that would defeat my purpose. My main goal was to flush out the *toxins* and give my body the jumpstart that it so desperately needed.
I wasn’t actually familiar with many juice cleanses, so when
I came across Jus by Julie and investigated their products, I had a feeling
that this program could work for me. When i visiting their website, what caught my eye was that their
juices were made FRESH DAILY. Jus by Julie only uses pure and raw ingredients
to rid the body of impurities through specially formulated drinks. The Jus by
Julie website offered a lot of valuable and useful information that convinced
me that this was the cleanse for me to try out.
Because I was unfamiliar with juice cleansing, the nice
folks at Jus by Julie selected a variety of flavors for me to try during my
3-Day Juice Cleanse. This cleanse includes six drinks to be consumed over a
three day period. It was great to see that once the juices arrived, the
ingredients in each drink was clearly labeled, recognizable and items that were
very familiar to me. Spinach, Kale, Bananas, Lemons, Pineapple.
I received my order promptly the following day of my order
placement. It came in a nice big insulated tote bag.
After receiving my juices, I immediately began the following day. It is suggested that you begin the cleanse within three days of receiving your order. To start the day, I began with Morning Glory... with romaine, celery, spinach, apple, kale, banana and strawberry as ingredients... my thoughts... it's not going to be bad at all... I'm not going to lie, this particular juice was a hold the nose, drink as fast as you can through a straw beverage. At the very moment of finishing this juice, I was not looking forward to the next drink, let alone the next three days of this cleanse.
To my delightful surprise to rest of the juices throughout the day were not only delicious, but a fantastic surprise. Each juice following the first was not only flavorful, but filling as well. My absolute favorites were the Island Coconut, Chia Berry, Not So Chunky and Sweet Spin! I will definitely be ordering these in the future for just my
every day weeks!
What I really liked about Jus by Julie were the option of
flavors throughout the days as well as the ability to swap one flavor for drink
labeled number (2) on day one versus drink day two.
Because I am so used to eating solid food every day, I found myself
craving anything that crunched. Jus by Julie recommends that you eat as little
as possible when cleansing for the best results, but if you need something, you
can much on raw veggies or you were also allowed egg white, which is what I gladly
included. By day two, I actually felt pretty good as well as energized and
continued my regular workout schedule.
So what were the overall pros and cons of the 3-day Jus by
Julie Juice Cleanse? First, let me begin with the cons: {1} Morning Glory
flavor was not good {2} Some of the juices were clearly thinner than others,
allowing to drink much faster and not seem as full and satisfied and {3} I
missed *crunching* on physical
food.
Now for the pros: {1} Drinks are clearly labeled and it’s
easy to identify which juice was to be consumed {2} ALL other juice flavors
that I tried were delicious and I really enjoyed each of them. {3} made from
pure and raw ingredients DAILY {4} ONLY 3-days.
I completed the cleanse successfully over the weekend and I
could certainly tell a difference. Was I craving actual solid food, of course,
but healthy non-processed or pre-packaged food.
I am thrilled to say that I finished the 3-day cleanse. My
body was happy too. It was the exact jumpstart that was needed to get back on
track to healthier eating.
Finally thoughts: I would do cleanse all over again and would
recommend it to others looking to take a step toward a healthier way of living.
