Juicing is obviously huge right now and there are a lot of reasons why so many people have jumped on board the juice train (if you've been following me for awhile swap juice train with The Juice Bus ;) ) Juicing gives your body a much needed break from using energy to break down food and send that energy straight to you to use. I also have to say I absolutely loathe the word fast. In our house we call it a juice cleanse but it is commonly referred to as a juice feast because, if you are fasting properly, you should never feel a hungry sensation.
Here are some of the main reasons why I, personally, juice feast:
* To give my digestive system a break
* Allow the body to cleanse waste and toxins a greatly accelerated speed
* To learn that missing a meal isn't the worst thing in the world
* To experience how energizing nourishing foods are - rather than filling foods
* To reestablish your gratitude for food
* Save money and time from prepping
* To gain control over food, rather than food controlling you
* Weight-loss
