When it comes to our cleanses, you get out what we don’t put in. They’re designed to replace meals with bottles of pure and nutritious cold-pressed juices – with nothing unnatural added. They’re a reminder of how you feel when you put only good things in.

Your cleanse day

In the days leading up to your cleanse start to remove any stimulants such as sugar, caffeine and alcohol to make the transition as easy as possible. While cleansing, try to minimise your calendar so you can remove temptation and focus on your wellness goal.

Cleanse FAQs

How do I store my drinks?

When your delivery arrives place your drinks in the fridge to keep chilled. Natural separation can occur which is why a vigorous shake is important, this is a good sign we’re 100% natural and don’t contain any stabilisers or additives. Our juices are to be enjoyed fresh and not suitable for freezing. Our juices will have a minimum of 6 days shelf life when they reach you.

Cheat sheet

Whilst a cleanse is all about avoiding solid food, we recognise that this can be difficult – particularly if you’ve never done one before. If you’re finding it tough, listen to your body. First, try having a hot water with lemon or herbal tea, as this is often enough to stave off the desire for solid food until your next juice. If that doesn’t work, here’s a few tricks that should help:

  • Drink 1/2 of your number 6 bottle and save the rest for the evening.
  • Have a few slices cucumber, celery or avocado.
  • Have a Miso soup.
  • Have a cup of leafy greens with a squeeze of lemon juice.
What does it feel like to cleanse?

It’s hard to predict how you’ll feel whilst you’re cleansing because no two people are the same, but here are a few of the common side effects.

Feeling energised - When you’ve put only good stuff in, your body thanks you for it by feeling brighter and more energised. It’s common our cleansers want to keep this feeling going. Our 5:2 plans take the faff out of fasting, with simply delicious programmes for those who want to continue their cleanse benefits.

Feeling cold - It’s surprising how much heat everyday digestion of solid food creates. Without having this work to do, your body can feel colder than normal. Drinking herbal teas throughout the day will warm you up and keep you hydrated.

Headaches - If you are a committed coffee drinker, going cold turkey without caffeine can bring on headaches. Stick it out for 24 hours or have a cup of green tea (the lower levels of caffeine in green tea will help). Drink plenty of water whilst you wait for it to pass.

Can I eat on a cleanse?

Try and work with just the juices and lots of water between each juice on your fast days to really allow your digestive system a break. If you really your body needs something to chew on, some cucumber or celery sticks won’t effect your plan too much!

Can skip a juice?

If you feel really full, drink as much of a juice as you can while listening to your body – If you can’t finish one, that’s absolutely fine! We’d suggest having some of each juice as opposed to skipping one entirely as you get different nutritional benefits from different juices.

Can I drink tea and coffee on a cleanse?

Try to avoid caffeine while cleansing. You can sometimes get cold on a juice plan so If you need something to warm up, herbal teas are the best option.

Can I workout while cleansing?

When on a 5:2 you’re working with a reduced amount of calories, you can still work our but we advise taking It easy! We’d suggest light yoga or Pilates and nothing too strenuous.

How to recycle your cleanse bottles?

Wash after use and follow the PET guidelines of your local recycling collection.

Post Cleanse

Be Mindful - consider how you feel and prolonging that feeling with real whole foods, staying away from anything processed and stimulants like alcohol and caffeine.
Introduce Solids Slowly - wake up your digestive system slowly, a light breakfast like chia or overnight oats will ease you back in much better than a full breakfast.
