Cleansing and Nourishment Through Juices and Super Nutrition

Step number one aims to help you purge your body of years of toxic build-up using a gentle but very effective combination of fresh juices, herbs, and bowel cleansers. At the same time, a super nutrition blend is added to juices to help flood the body with the many essential vitamins, minerals, and other nutritional elements that have most likely been severely lacking in your diet. These nutrients also assist in the elimination of toxins.

This first step can be followed for as long as you desire (a minimum of 5 days and up to 40 days) until you have reached your health goals, with the option of adding one “majority living foods” meal in the evening after an initial “liquids only” period. By introducing an evening meal, you can extend the juice cleanse to even longer than 40 days if desired (e.g. if you have serious health issues).

The J.E.W.E.L. Living Juice Cleanse

The J.E.W.E.L. Living juice cleanse consists of a daily liquid regime: Three cleanse drinks with three fresh juices (boosted with a super nutrition blend) in between. Along with the juices, herbal tinctures can also be taken to help detoxify the kidneys and liver, and to help rid the body of parasites. A natural bowel cleanser (in capsule form) is taken in the evening with lemon water (filtered water with fresh lemon juice), and herbal teas can be consumed at any time.

It is highly recommended to undergo a series of colonics (colon hydrotherapy treatments) during the juice cleanse, although this is not imperative in order to achieve results. You are also strongly encouraged to follow a ten day (minimum) pre-cleanse diet (of mostly raw or lightly cooked non-starchy vegetables, vegetable fruits, raw sprouts, fresh vegetable/fruit juices, and fresh fruits). These two additions accelerate the cleansing process and significantly reduce the detoxification side effects.

The juice cleanse should be followed for a minimum of five to ten days, and it can be extended up to forty days. Even after completing the initial liquids only cleanse, it is a good idea to continue cleansing in part by drinking liquids (the cleanse drinks and juices) during the day and eating one mostly living foods meal in the evening until you reach your personal health goals. You can return to the juice cleanse regime any time you desire e.g. after experiencing a lapse in your eating plans, or following a vacation, and it is ideal to repeat a short to medium length juice cleanse on an annual basis.

Dry skin brushing (gently scrubbing the entire body before showering with a natural horse hair brush) is also encouraged throughout the juice cleanse, to aid the detoxification process. The skin is our largest organ and it is through the skin that many toxins are released. In fact, dry skin brushing is an excellent practice to continue on a daily basis, whether or not you are juice cleansing.

The fresh juices are made using a home juice extractor. There are many types and brands available on the market, so it’s worth doing some research to find one that best suits your needs. We recommend the Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer. This is a cold press juicer i.e. it’s a masticating juicer that grinds the juice out of produce (versus centrifugal juicers which contain a fast-spinning metal blade that squeezes out the juice under high pressure). Cold press juicers generate minimal heat, whereas centrifugal juicers generate a high level of heat that destroys some of the enzymes in the fruits and vegetables you’re juicing. The heat also oxidizes those nutrients, rendering less nutritious juice with less shelf life compared to a cold press juicer. Nevertheless, centrifugal juicers can produce large quantities of juice very quickly and that is why they are popular.

Fresh juices provide concentrated nutrition and energy, and they can include any preferred combination of vegetables with some fruits for sweetening as desired. Although, it’s recommended that you focus on green vegetables (such as celery, lettuces, and spinach) and less sweet fruits (such as grapefruit, lemon, lime, and green apples). Raw beetroot is an extremely powerful cleanser, particularly of the liver, and things like ginger and herbs (e.g. cilantro and parsley) can be used for added flavoring and nutrition. Wheatgrass juice provides an amazing array of nutritional elements and it also enhances detoxification.

Added to the juices is the super nutrition blend (a mix of powdered or granulated superfoods). There are many super nutrition (or superfood) products on the market, however you need to carefully study the ingredient mix and manufacturing process in order to determine quality and value for money. After many years of investigation and personal experimentation, we have developed a list of our favorite superfoods that we combine to make our preferred super nutrition blend. They are not cheap, but they are powerhouses of nourishment that the body greatly welcomes after being subjected to years of neglect. If you cannot do both the fresh juices and the super nutrition blend for your cleanse then you can choose one or the other, whichever is most convenient and/or affordable for you. It’s better to incorporate one of these sources of dense nutrition versus not doing the juice cleanse at all. 



If you decide to incorporate herbal tinctures (infused in some water or fresh lemon juice) into your juice cleanse then take them at the same time as the juices versus with the cleanse drinks. There are many different brands on the market, so it’s best to consult a professional at your local health food store to find a product that you like.

The cleanse drinks can include filtered water blended with a product called Intestinal Drawing Formula™ (by HealthForce Nutritionals), or you can combine bentonite clay powder and/or zeolite clay powder with natural psyllium husks. (You can find bentonite clay and psyllium husks in most health food stores, and HealthForce Nutritionals sells a product called ZeoForce™). For flavor, you can add lemon juice to either of these combinations. You need to start very slow with these products (initially taking only small amounts for the first number of days) because they are very powerful. And, you need to blend and consume the cleanse drinks quickly because they will thicken and be difficult to drink, particularly the clay/psyllium combination. Again, it’s best to first consult with a local nutritionist to help you understand how these products work within the body and how to take them. It doesn’t need to be a big deal; a brief chat while you’re visiting the health food store one day should be all you need to help you on your way.

Cleansing the bowel is one of the best things we can do for our bodies. Most people’s colons are impacted with an incredible amount of waste due to many years of poor food choices, and due to a lack of fiber, fluids, and exercise. Moreover, this toxin-laden waste provides a perfect breeding ground for parasites and bad bacteria. It takes time to strip away at the layers of rubbery-like substance that cakes the walls of the colon, but juice cleansing (preferably in conjunction with colonics), followed by a majority living foods diet, gets the results.

The incorporation of an all-natural bowel cleansing product (such as Oxy-Powder®) during the juice cleanse aids elimination without unnaturally stimulating bowel peristalsis (as do commonly used bowel cleansers that include senna leaf or cascara sagrada). This is taken before bed with lemon water (filtered water with fresh lemon juice). Consult a health professional for suggested product alternatives.

The fresh vegetable/fruit juices and super nutrition blend do not need to be restricted to periods of cleansing only. They can be incorporated into your daily lifestyle as desired.
