Before, During and After
Cleanse Overview
Before you begin London’s best juice cleanse, go through the guides that are enclosed in your juice cleanse package in order to get the most out of your experience. To quell the curiosity until your gifts of goodness arrive, we have put together a little run-down of the operation to give you an idea of what the drill will be.
Before:
Some say that the preparation is the key to success and, in terms of juice cleanses, we agree. By easing yourself into the process, your body can better adjust to the changes. If you are participating in a 3-day cleanse, you should start preparing 3 days before and 5 days before for a 5-day cleanse. Think of it as the pre-game to your juicing party.
- Start each day with a glass of warm water with lemon juice to support detoxification and digestion.
- Eliminate alcohol, tea and coffee, sugar, processed foods, dairy (milk, cheese, yoghurt), meat and gluten grains (wheat, rye, oats, barley). - Go organic if possible.
- Drink up to 8 glasses of filtered water.
- Drink up to 2 cups of green or white tea a day.
During:
- Start each day with a glass of warm water with lemon juice.
- Drink the juices in their numbered order approximately every two hours to three hours.
- Avoid strenuous exercise, but yoga is fine.
- Drink at least 8 glasses of filtered water or herbal teas a day. Dandelion, nettle and ginger tea are especially great for your liver.

After:
Congratulations! Our London juice cleanse has reset your body and you must ease it back into its daily routine. Don’t jump right back into a huge meal, your digestive system has been on a serious holiday and needs some time to readjust. Start with gentle foods first such as smoothies, soups, fruits and vegetables. You can gradually introduce heavier foods in small quantities into your diet one day at a time.
- Day 1 – fruits and veggies
- Day 2 – gluten-free grains (brown rice, quinoa, buckwheat), nuts and seeds
- Day 3 – beans and pulses (peas and lentils)
- Day 4 – feel free to get right back to normal, you’ve earned it
