Detox days, or, in simple terms, juice fasting, is one of the cleansing diets, during which it is assumed that the diet includes only vegetable or fruit mixtures.
During a juice fast, you are allowed to drink both freshly squeezed and pre-prepared drinks.
The diet lasts no more than three days, although sometimes its duration can reach a whole week, but this happens in rare cases.
Of course, such fasting days have not only their advantages, but also disadvantages, as well as contraindications.
Safe juice unloading
A juice detox diet will only be safe if you do not suffer from diabetes, gastritis or other diseases related to the gastrointestinal tract.
Another contraindication is an eating disorder.
Finally, you must be prepared for the fact that the lost kilograms may return again.
