Juice fasts will help you lose weight. There is no doubt about it. But that’s because you severely regulate yourself on the foods you’re allowed to eat. Juices from fruits and vegetables are low in calories; if you put yourself on a liquid cleanse, you’ll only be consuming 600 – 1000 calories daily. Halfway through your cleanse, you may be experiencing caffeine withdrawals. If you are an avid coffee drinker, this will be the most challenging stage.

WAYS TO DO JUICE FASTING.

Prepare for the Fast. Before detoxing, you should prepare your body and mind because If you proceed right into your fast from an unhealthy diet, you may feel sick from the detox symptoms.

Aim to drink a fixed amount of juice per day. During a juice fast, you should aim to drink at least six 16-ounce servings of juice.
