Fizz taste means that your juices are starting to ferment. You don’t want that. To get maximum benefits from pressed juices, you want to consume them within 72 hours; 3 days, some 4 days max. That’s why I mention frequently that you’d be in flirting stages by day 4 so you want to consume as soon as possible.

That is correct. Still the same amount of days as juices once they have been juiced. I made that mistake once with juicing all of my ginger and I wasted so much and said I’ll never do that again. Now I just throw pieces in with each juice and consume them accordingly :)

Check for these 3 things: The spiky green top of a pineapple are called fronds, most people use this method to check for ripeness. Gently tug on one of the leaves. If it comes off easily or is loose, the pineapple is ripe. It usually does such when a couple dry leaves appears on top of pineapple.

Two: The exterior of the pineapple changes from a green-ish to yellow as it ripens, so as a general rule, the more yellow a pineapple’s exterior is, the riper the fruit will be. You want a pineapple that is consistently golden-yellow from top to bottom, but not getting into dark orange territory, that’s means it’s going bad. I mentioned on one of of calls that pineapples actually doesn't ripen much after it's been plucked prior to arriving at markets which means it will actually get old and moldy before it gets any riper. So don’t look for greenish color, look for more yellowish on the exterior.

Three: Even when pineapples are yellowish still try touching them to figure out if they’re ripe or not. A ripe pineapple will feel very slightly soft when you squeeze it (almost similar to how you pick avocados). A hard pineapple is NOT the one you want. Trust me, your tongue will have a raw and burning feeling all day from eating or drinking an unripe pineapple. 🙃

Oh yes!!! Totally normal. It’s very astringent and it’s pulling toxins from your body and it’s making you feel off. It’s doing what you’re supposed to do. If it’s too strong, cut back until you can tolerate it as you move along the detox process.

🗣NO DAIRY!!! 😩

Especially during level two and level three. Only fresh and clean eating allowed

No, after the cleansing process if you choose to introduce meat and dairy back into your diet, you want to even limit that during your non detox days as well. That’s because the goal is for you to continue to cleanse in between your four quarterly fasting sessions within a year.

You will be able to see the transition more clearly once the program launch. And you will actually be inspired because you’re going to see how you will continue to see progress outside of straight Juicing

For the citrus fruits, all you need to do is peel or cut the outer layer. Meaning remove just the skin/peel. It’s okay if you leave some of the white/rind on the citrus fruit as well as the rinds on melons when juicing because it adds extra nutritional value. The only thing I recommend that you core to remove the seeds would be apples.

Some/most baby carrots are genetically modified. You definitely want carrots with the stems or the big long ones. Clean/peel them and then slice them up

The following items are wonderful to blend for a smoothie, but may clog up your juicer if used. I always recommend to eat these alone or after a fast.

Bananas

Avocados

Jackfruit or durian

Cherries

Figs

You can juice mangos, pears, red apples and kiwis sparingly but juicing them in abundance may clog up your juicer as they are all mushy fruits.

No, it’s not necessarily cheating. Instead of peanut butter I would much rather you have sunflower, cashew or almond butter. One of many Reasons: peanut butter has sugar and hydrogenated (trans) fats which feeds toxicity load and fungus within the body. Something you definitely don’t want to consume while detoxing. But I get it, we all like regular peanut butter but the alternatives have better benefits when consumed in moderation outside of detoxing.

Here. are some ideas, but please remember don’t overdo it. You have to start juicing to see which combinations you would prefer. So you can never go wrong with vegetables like spinach, kale, celery, cucumber, asparagus, arugula, broccoli, brussels sprouts, bok choy, cilantro, parsley, dandelion greens, cabbage, carrot, Romaine lettuce, and fennel.

But remember to start off, keep it simple. Don’t overwhelm yourself. Stick with things like spinach kale celery cucumber broccoli. All are good but they don’t yield a lot of juice. However romaine lettuce does.

You’d want to start with one lemon shot on level one of at least 4 ounces. If you can handle that you’re more than welcome to add another while on level one.

As far as how many ounces regarding your juice, you want to have at least 24 ounces but ideally 32 ounce as that will take place of your “Breakfast” on level one then "breakfast and lunch" while on level two.

If you’re already eliminating mucus then what you’re doing is working. However I would try small shots of non-diluted shots just to see where it would take you and how you would respond. Example: start with 1 ounce, then move to 2 ounce, and so forth. In the meantime still have your diluted shots in between. The key is to progress to another level of cleansing while moving to all liquids. And it will certainly happen because you’re eliminating the digesting process of food consumption so that by itself is going to be different for you this week. Meaning another level of cleansing.

The juice has more of the vitamins and minerals the only thing we loose is the fiber. In addition there are nutrients within the flesh of the fruit as well as the skin and some rind(s).

For you know how much of each fruit to use is based upon personal preference. I highly recommend juicing everything separately and then measuring out your ounces of each fruit if you would like to try a mixture or combination of fruit juices.

3 Tea Ballerina and Smooth Move. If you absolutely have to add some honey, use Manuka honey.

Popcorn is fine in moderation. Just make sure it’s not microwave. It’s coated with a lot of unhealthy oils. Make sure it’s from an organic source or air-popped.

Gout is due to acid buildup, uric acids specially. So suffers would want to lay off dairy and thing that are high protein for sure. Especially during a flare up.

These will be good for juices to help with gout: Pineapples, carrots, ginger, cucumber, cherries, beets, apples, pomegranate, cranberries.

Frozen fruit is fine to have whether you are actively cleansing or not. That’s still fruit but just in a frozen form. That’s A-OK.

As far as toppings, you do not want to consume any processed toppings if you are actively cleansing. Just in between cleansing phases. You can still have toppings you just wanna make sure that they’re as clean as possible. Nuts would be a phenomenal choice. Grain is processed and some grains have gluten. So to keep things clean as possible you want to stay as close to a plant-based as possible i.e. fruit, vegetables, nuts and seeds, Even coconut are all wonderful choices. Adding fresh fruit on top, coconut, and a nut blend are great examples.

No worries, don’t be hard on yourself. The key is to re-center and refocus. You have 4 options to choose from.

Choose one and do for 24 to 72 hours:

1) do a mono fruit consumption. Focus on one fruit at a time.

2) have smoothies

3) fresh pressed juices and then the more intense reset would be

4) lemon cleansing. Consume nothing but undiluted lemon juice. If you can’t tolerate that, dilute it.

Pick one and stick to it for at least two days. You’ll be surprised how you’d reset.

YES YES AND YES!!! Cabbage is wonderful and is a great addition to multiple dishes!

Salsa and chips could definitely be in your 20% junk Category. More so the chips. However, just make sure it’s gluten & grain free so your body can still cleanse even while consuming food outside of the cleansing phase. Gluten and grains feed mucus & acids.

You’d want to ease your way into a broth and/or soups according to how you handled consuming fruit on the previous days. If it was fine then a soup is good, if you experience a little discomfort try broth before a hearty soup.

Mushrooms are Fine. But again, if you’re looking to go to deeper in cleansing, just limit them at times. But yes have at them!

What that tells me is that we really need to get those bowels moving. I need to start closing you out cellularly. Starting with the colon. Herbs work great in this process.Try taking a detox tea? Or in a supplement form to help cleanse your colon. Check out my 14 day cleanse. That'll definitely get some things moving along ;-)

I do both. You would have to try and see how prominent you like the mint. When you juice it, it’s a little stronger than when you throw it in your drink. At times, I will throw some mint in my drink. However I will throw my mint inside of the juicer with whatever I'm juicing if I want more of a minty taste in any of my juices.

Alternatives/substitutes would be consider your 10 to 20% junk food. Although it may appear to better than dairy, it’s still considered processed so just be sure to limit that as well.

Deep cleansing is every 4 months. And that’s the deep deep cleanse. However there still cleansing that can take place with resetting yourselves in between. Like a 3-day cleanse, 1-day fasting. 3 to 5 day lemon cleanse, or even intermittent fasting with or without lemons and even dry fasting. Another choice is 5:3 ratio which is 5 days of level two and 3 days of level three. All of these options are within in the program as they are different levels of detoxification

Here’s the DIY version:

1 cup of cold water

2 tablespoons of distilled white vinegar

1 tablespoon of lemon juice

Directions: Combine the water, white vinegar, and lemon juice in a spray bottle and spray or place mixture in a bowl and wash your produce. Spray on your produce or let it soak, and then rinse thoroughly.

There are also fruit and veggie cleaners that you can purchase if you choose to do so.

Yes. All of which is moving you in the right direction. However, you don’t have to be miserable. Cut back on your fruits herbs if you feel it’s overwhelming. Try having more green vegetable juices instead of fruit juices. That will slow things down for you a bit. You can also try taking charcoal to help absorb some of those toxins being released in your body. That will also help. Check the link in the initial protocol document to order some from Amazon.

The best way to start is juice everything alone. Pineapple by itself, melons by themselves, grapes by themselves, Then mix accordingly.…but with your greens make sure you add a watery base with them i.e. apples with spinach, or cucumber celery spinach and Apple. You just don’t want to juice greens by themselves. You want to follow greens with some type of astringent fruit to keep things properly flowing in your juicer. Remember, keep it simple!

If you’re new to lemon shots, the more you do them, the less you’ll feel nauseous. That’s a part of the detox process. The more nauseous you feel means you're releasing toxins within your body. Keep in mind the ounces that you’re consuming and how they make you feel so at any time you can adjust accordingly.

Be sure to throw the kale in with a handful of apples or whatever else you are juicing with it. Don’t juice the greens by themselves.

I personally like the green apples.

Also here's a fun fact: Red apples tend to get too mushy in the juicer because they are softer (if you guys haven’t already noticed). Green apples tend to be a little bit more firmer and yields a little bit more juice. But fyi, I still juice both :)

My children take lemons shot often! Nino just did last night because he was having some congestion going on plus I wanted to load him up before his tournament this weekend. However my children are much older than yours.,… so what I would do if I were you is juice one lemon and 2 to 3 apples. Preferably two green and one red. That’ll help with congestion and give her nutrients to help recovers. Be sure you leave some of that white part on the lemon when removing skin so she can receive some bioflavonoids in her drink,... she will love it!!!

Yes Yes and YES!!! Quincy would tell me when I was sleeping he smelled metals coming from my nose and mouth. That is a wonderful sign. Can be uncomfortable and tricky at times especially with runny bowels. However, you can control those symptoms. While on the go you want to eat more vegetables and less fruits. You will slow down detox process but it won’t be as intense. You’ll still be on track and reap benefits, you’ll just be able to control your symptoms to get as comfortable as possible while on the go!. So example: instead of 75% juicing and 25% vegetables take your fruit and juice consumption down to 40% to 50% and then have just the same amount of vegetables as well. You don’t want to cut it down too much to halt your progress but you want to do it enough where you can contain symptoms. That’s what I do every time I’m on the go.

Try some pears, pineapple, carrots, ginger shot, orange and grapefruit. All of those are helpful for energy.
