Juice cleansing has recently taken off in a big way.. but what actually is it?
It effectively involves replacing meals with raw, healthy juices containing all of your days nutrients for a short period of time.
Although your body removes toxins from your body naturally, a juicing programme for a couple of days can really help in replenishing and relaxing your body, as you obviously can't do too much heavy exercise.
Even if you don't fancy a juicing cleanse, these recipes are great if you're peckish between meals or if you need an extra energy boost.
Before cleansing, do remember to get professional health advice and make sure it's right for you :)

ULTIMATE GREEN JUICE
I drink this juice daily, and with good reason. The base is celery, which is a little known nutritional powerhouse. It’s loaded with potassium, folic acid, magnesium, calcium, iron, phosphorus and essential amino acids. On top of all that, it’s one of the most alkalinizing things you can put in your body. To the celery, I add kale, green apple, parsley, lime, lemon and ginger, creating an extremely potent, detoxifying cocktail.
INGREDIENTS:
1 bunch celery
4-5 kale leaves (preferably lacinato)
1 green apple
one big handful of flat leaf parsley leaves
1 lime
1 lemon
1 inch of fresh ginger
