I tried a one day juice cleanse and I love it


I have been drinking Pure Nectar by Fruit Magic for quite some time, but it's only when I have the chance to substitute my other drinks to this healthier option. Upon getting to know their products more, I knew that they have a 1 to 3 day juice cleanse sets and back then I had this thinking that I don't need it just yet. After having my lab test (that's the time when we get to feel a little something here and there), most of my results are on the normal range but I have to be on guard for my sugar and cholesterol level since the results are nearing the borderline. The cholesterol part is actually surprising for someone who is as slender and thin as me. LOL

For the first time, I tried a one day juice cleanse from Pure Nectar and I’m not gonna say that it was easy, but I am really happy that I pushed through with it.  I'm not a vegetarian, I'm not a fitness addict either and you guys know that I post a lot of my #NCDfoodtrip like I am an unofficial endorser of products and services that I really like. With my blogging life for 9 years, I realized that I have to be more mindful of what I eat and drink given the kind of lifestyle that I have.

Doing a juice detox will require you to become physically and psychologically ready, learn to accept that what you are doing is no joke and avoid temptations at all cost. I was actually worried about post-cleanse effects that may hinder me from doing my office work. So, I did a lot of reading and religiously followed the guidelines (HERE) about the one-day juice cleanse program of Pure Nectar. 

Sometimes I realized that yes, we keep on consuming imported food supplements and vitamins that we forget that we Filipinos have a different kind of lifestyle and diet. Pure Nectar's juice cleansing program has an edge over other products because it is crafted according to an average Filipino's diet. 

To keep it short, here are some quick guidelines about this one-day juice cleanse program of Pure Nectar.
  • Take a light high fiber meal the night before performing the juice cleanse. In my case, I ate kamote (sweet potato), yes, I was serious. 
  • Can you eat during the day of your cleansing? As much as possible NO, so to achieve maximum benefits of the program. I'm so proud of myself I was able to achieve that! If it is unavoidable, however, a minimum amount of steamed, broiled, boiled or raw vegetables and/or fish is acceptable. 
  • The only thing that you can actually consume during the program is WATER. Why? To avoid mouth sores, which is one of the normal detoxification reaction of the body. 
  • NO COFFEE and other STIMULANTS on the day of the program and even a few days after.
  • Listen to your body during the detox process. 
  • Don't forget to read the rest of the pre-during-post detoxification guidelines HERE

WARNING: Temptation to eat is really high! I actually felt like "busog ako pero gutom ako".  Imagine?! Possible pala 'yun! My body was actually screaming for some sugar and carbohydrates that day. 

Follow the proper timing when to drink. If I was able to do it, you can do it too!

Once a follower on my page left a comment after I posted a not so healthy food and said "sayang ang Pure Nectar" and so I replied, "this is exactly why I need the Pure Nectar in my diet because I have a different kind of lifestyle."

RESULTS? I felt light and renewed after the program. It's a bonus that I was actually conscious of what to eat. Perhaps the only detoxification reaction that I got was a mild headache and it was tolerable. This juice program is not actually for weight loss, it's more about rebooting your system and flushing away all the toxins. 

This set includes: 7 bottles of Pure Nectar cold-pressed juice: Mega Omega, Olympian, Tropical Fuel, Restore & Renew, Body Cleanser, Alka-Boost,Green Supreme, 1 bottle of Lemon Kefir (500mL), Reusable Thermal Bag


"Water kefir is a lacto-fermented beverage made with water kefir grains and sugar water. You would think that something made of sugar water would be overly sweet but that is not the case at all. The “grains” (called so for their appearance) feed on the sugar leaving it with an extremely mild sweetness. It’s a Probiotic! Probiotics are good bacteria that help you keep a healthy gut. These good bacteria help us to digest our food, prevent allergies, boost our immune system, and overall keep our body healthy. Since many probiotic supplements are not reliable we choose to get our probiotics through fermented foods – and water kefir is a great way to do that! Get Increased Immunity! That’s right, probiotics help to boost your immune system. This means that you will get sick less often. That’s great as we are headed into back to school season."
I love this reusable bag! This bag kept the juices cold throughout the day, well almost for the last bottle. This will be actually perfect for outings!

Pure Nectar also has a 2-day and 3-Day Cleanse set. 

I think I might be doing this at least once a month or once in two months if budget permits. If I can buy a coffee or any other drink at a hundred plus or so, I believe I can actually push through with this. Not only that I was able to test my limits, but I was able to learn how to listen well to what my body needs. On to a healthier blogging life!!! Give it a try guys!
