30-Days Juice Fast- Day 3

30-Days Juice Fast- Day 3

Hi folks,

If you have never done a juice fast before, then i would suggest you take things slow: you could start by replacing one meal with raw juice and then scale-up to two meals and then all meals of the day. 

However, you chose to do this, just keep taking those baby steps and reward yourself for the little victories along the way.

Today, I will continue with the simple recipes - using only a few fruits and vegetables.

You can replace the sweet things like apples, beetroot, carrots, pineapple, papaya etc. with other sweet fruits or veggies you have locally and do same with leafy greens etc.

With that out of the way, here are ‘Day 3’ recipes:

What you would need:

1.   Time – obviously

2.   A Juicer or/ a smoothie maker (a good blender if no smoothie maker)

3.   A chopping board (optional)

4.   Knives (optional)

5.   Water

6.   Apple cider vinegar (to wash fruits and vegetables. See: ‘30-Day Juice Fast: Day 1- Mind Prep!’ post sent on 28^th of Feb. 2013 for veggie washer recipe.)

Fruits and Veggies needed for the day: 3 bananas, 3 apples, 2 cups of pineapple, 2 celery stick, 2-4 inches of lemon, 10 inches of cucumber, 5 handful of mixed green leaves, 7 carrots, 4 cups of red grapes, 1/2 a beetroot, 3 oranges, 3 stems of broccoli, 1/2 a cup of blueberries, a bag of peppermint tea (optional) and ½ a cup of strawberries.

Recipes:

7 am

Warm water with Lemon slices Or Have a mug of peppermint tea.

(This is a great way to start cleansing your gut. Lemon helps get rid of mucous and helps keep bacteria at bay. SO say –‘good morning gut’.

8am and 11am

AM : Juice- 2 handful of mixed greens, 2 apples, 1 carrot, one inch slice of lemon with rind off and 1 inch fresh ginger(optional).

Juice the lot.

 2pm

PM - ½ a beetroot, 2 handfuls of green leaves, 2 cup of red grapes, 6 inches of cucumber and 1 inch slice of lemon without the rind.

Juice the lot.

3pm

PM - 1 celery stick, 3 stems of broccoli, 1 apple, 5 carrots, and a thumb of ginger

Juice the lot.

5pm

PM smoothie – ½ cup of blueberries, a handful of green leaves, 3 bananas, ½ cup of strawberries and 3 oranges.

Peel the oranges and juice them. If you have a citrus squeezer then you, obviously, do not have to peel the orange.

Toss everything into a blender and blend until smooth.

Enjoy!
