Commonly Asked Questions about Juicing, Fasting, and Cleansing:
What is Juicing, Fasting and Cleansing?
We know from the long history of fasting in every religion, every society, that there is some benefit from this form of self-sacrifice or self-denial. Most people think it is a spiritual matter, but there is research evidence that fasting can also improve overall general functioning of the immune system. In modern, alternative programs, fasting is often used in combination with a nutritional detox, juicing or raw foods, and intestinal cleansing to enhance immune function and improve gastrointestinal function.
How does this work?
No one truly knows why the combination may illicit positive changes in the metabolism. Some people say fasting rests the GI system. Cleansing of the bowel may lead to removal of old residues and material left in a sluggish bowel. Followed by a reintroduction to eating only fresh, raw juice and no prepared food of any sort, the clean rested gut is renourished with real food full of vitamins and minerals. The diet can then progress from there. This process may also be very effective as an elimination diet method.
Is it safe? Is it effective?
Fasting is safe and healthy if you pay attention to your hydration and it is not done for an unhealthy period of time. Nothing can be better for us than fresh, whole, organic juices. Colonic cleansing of the colon has rarely caused any difficulties for the recipient. Please advise your medical team first if you have a history of a bowel or kidney disease. Effectiveness is dependent on the individual and his/her situation.
What to expect?
Please expect to spend several hours to half a day in the spa with your spa therapist. Combined teaching on nutrition, juicing for health, fasting and bowel cleansing is followed by the program in stepwise fashion. You are guided every step of the way to have a refreshing adventure to improved bowel function and overall general metabolic improvement.
Is it covered by insurance? How much does it cost?
