The cleanse comes in three levels – Full Spectrum which contains juices made sweet with a variety of fruits; All Green which contains juices made sweet with only apples or pears, and The Zero which has zero fruits. I did a day of each. Initially I was going to do all juices, but in the end I ended up noshing on some fruits and veggies throughout my 3-day cleanse. I’m a pretty active person and the amount of calories in these juices was not enough to satify me. I have to say though every one of the juices that American Yogini makes is delicious and if you’re trying to shed a few lbs or just looking to feel better after indulging in junk for a little too long, you will achieve your goal whether you only drink the juices or work in a few snacks as well. After-all 1500 calories of juices and healthy snacks is not the same thing as 1500 calories of chocolate and sandwiches.
My fave was the All Green cleanse (each cleanse has six juices), because it was in-between in terms of sweetness (too much sugar, even if it comes from fruit, makes me feel bloaty). I’m not one to suggest quick-fixes. I think it’s important to work on being healthy everyday, but I’m a big fan of this cleanse for a bit of “detox,” when a “slip” has occurred, Just remember to make it your own! There’s no reason you can’t eat some healthy snacks. Also heat some of the juices up and make a soup or freeze one to make a popsicle!
