EXPECTATIONS
Headaches Mild headaches are a normal sensation during a juice cleanse as your body withdrawals from caffeine and sugar.
Exercise Below you’ll find some helpful tips and a few notes on what to expect during your cleanse process.
Energy Level As your body becomes free of toxins you may experience above average energy levels.
Hunger But are you really hungry? Often times we mistake our emotional desire to eat with a physical need for food. You may experience slight hunger during your cleanse and as you do, try and decipher if you are actually physically hungry or if you’d just like a bite of something.
Light exercise during your cleanse is encouraged to increase your circulation and move out the toxins. “Lift Weights to Lose Weight.” Building muscle will allow your body to target fat cells over lean muscle allowing you to get rid of the extra pounds.
Calorie Intake Each Raleigh Raw juice has about 5 pounds of produce and contains 90-120 Calories.
Focus Following several days of potent nutrient absorption it is common to feel a heightened level of mental clarity and focus.
Cheat Sheet Drink your juices 2-3 hours apart to sustain a proper balance of nutrients all day long. Drink lots of water, particularly warm water with lemon to speed up your metabolism. Buddy up. Cleansing with a friend is a great, however if this is not an option ask them for their support. Lift light weights, enjoy the sauna, go to a yoga class, get a massage. Any and all of these things will benefit you during your cleanse.
Cleanse Guidelines
Love yourself. Remember how awesome you are and acknowledge your achievements often.
Congratulations! You’ve successfully completed your Cleanse. Before you raise a glass, this doesn’t mean you can finally get back to shots of Jameson and Cliff Huxtable sized Hoagies... It is important that you safely shift your body and digestive system back to consuming solids by transitioning out of your cleanse the way you came into it. Small portions, mostly raw, natural and unprocessed foods. The good news is by now you may find this easier than you did before, noticing a decrease in cravings and desire to indulge in processed foods and addictive substances now that they are out of your system.
After Cleansing
We like the new YOU. Extend this clean lifestyle out as long as possible!
What’s the Difference Between Juicing and Blending? Juicing is a process which extracts water and nutrients from produce and discards the indigestible fiber. • Without all the fiber, your digestive system doesn’t have to work to break down the food and absorb the nutrients. • Juicing makes the nutrients more readily available to the body in much larger quantities than if you were to eat the fruits and vegetables whole or from a blender in smoothie form. • The fiber in produce helps slow down the digestive process and provides a steady release of nutrients into the blood stream. Juicing is like getting the nutrients in an IV! Right to the blood stream.
can fit in a 1lb (16oz) bottle of cold pressed juice when the fiber is removed.
This is especially helpful if you have a sensitive digestive system or illness that inhibits your body from processing fiber.
“No mud, no lotus.” Thich Nhat Hanh
Why are our bottles filled to the rim? Be careful opening Raleigh Raw juice. We purposely fill our bottles to the very top to eliminate all air. This restricts oxidation, which can rid the juice of nutritional value. This also preserves freshness while maintaining the integrity of raw juice.
Why Raw Juice Beats Store Bought Juice The juice you find at the store is not juice! The nutrients and live enzymes have been killed off in the interest of extending shelf life and all that remains is sugar, water and flavor. And once a juice gets pasteurized it’s no longer raw either. This knowledge should encourage people to stop wasting money on store “juice” and began exclusively juicing at home or buying 100% raw juice. Raw live plant based foods are highly alkaline, and loaded with phytonutrients and live enzymes.
Enzymes Metabolic enzymes catalyze and regulate every biochemical reaction that occurs within the human body, making them essential for cellular function and overall health. Digestive enzymes turn the
food we eat into energy which may be utilized by the body for various biological processes. Our bodies naturally produce both digestive and metabolic enzymes, as they are needed. Enzymes are protein chemicals, which carry a vital energy factor needed for every chemical action, and reaction that occurs in our body. There are approximately 1300 different enzymes found in the human cell. These enzymes can combine with coenzymes to form nearly 100,000 various chemicals that enable us to see, hear, feel, move, digest food, and think. Every organ, every tissue, and all the 100 trillion cells in our body depend upon the reactions of metabolic enzymes and their energy
factor. Nutrition cannot be explained without describing the part that enzymes play. Ordinarily, we cook food at temperatures at least twice that of normal body temperature. For this reason, fresh, raw and living plant foods are our primary source of food enzymes. Enzyme supplementation through high and frequent doses of fresh, organic, raw plant foods will naturally restore your body to the way it was intended to feel.
Enzymes are biologically active proteins found in all living cells. This is why you feel so good when you consume live enzymes through living foods.
What the hell is an anti-oxidant? Many chemicals found in plants offer a resistance to the damage that can occur to the human body from oxygen and the process of metabolic activity (oxidation). Just as rust can destroy metal, oxidation can lead to diseased arteries or brain cells, and contributes to diabetes and other conditions. Within plants are chemicals such as carotenoids, polyphenols, and flavonoids that are natural antioxidants.
Why it tastes so good Raleigh Raw juices are delicious for 2 main reasons. 1. Freshness - our produce is always organic and is sourced from local farms whenever possible and seasonal. Therefore, we juice produce that was harvested from a local farm just minutes away and days/hours prior. 2. Professional Mixologist - Our recipes are created by an experienced mixologist and nutritionist. You will notice that your body will immediately crave our juice and your taste buds will follow suit even if you aren’t used to drinking vegetable juice.
Cold Press versus Centrifugal Juicing methods Most of the popular juicers you see are centrifugal juicers. You know, the ones with the long shoot for stuffing the produce down into a spinning blade. Although these juicers are much more affordable, these juicing methods have motors that cause high amounts of heat and air exposure. These juicers are great for juicing at home for immediate consumption but will not work for commercial bottling. The added heat and oxygen destroys the natural essential enzymes present in the fresh fruits and vegetables – leaving the juice deficient of its original nutrient value and killing the shelf life. We find it necessary to use a 100% cold-pressed method in order to preserve all of the essential nutrients and live enzymes. Our produce undergoes a slow-grind, and is then pressed by 2 tons of slow moving hydraulic pressure.

Most Basic
Alkaline foods are foods that raise the amount of oxygen that your blood takes in. The most alkalizing foods are RAW green leafy vegetables, non-sweet fruits and (wheat) grasses. The opposite of alkaline foods are acid foods. Acidic foods are the source of discomfort, disease, and low energy. In the beginning of the 20th century it was discovered that if our blood cannot absorb enough oxygen we get sick: cancer, arthritis, candida infections, heart issues and diabetes are the result. Disease can not live in an alkaline body/environment. Today we attempt to cure cancer with chemo and radiation. That is like killing a fly on the wall using a bazooka. Furthermore you are treating symptoms not the cause. The correct course of action is to consume a diet that would make your body slightly more rich in alkaline thereby making it impossible for disease to form or thrive. The amount of oxygen your blood can absorb is measured on a pH scale that ranges from 0 to 14. A pH of 0 is most acidic while a pH of 14 is most alkaline. You know that our body tries to maintain a constant temperature of 98.6 degrees. But did you know that your body tries even
harder to maintain the right amount of oxygen in your blood (a pH of 7.365)? When our pH is too high or too low, we don’t feel well, we feel tired, gain weight, have poor digestion and get aches and pains. Most people in the US and Europe are too acidic: they cannot absorb enough oxygen. That’s why cancer, heart disease, arthritis and diabetes are epidemics.
The Good (Alkaline):
By consuming raw alkaline foods and drinks, we can help our body to heal itself from most diseases. Vegetables - especially raw, green, leafy vegetables. Fresh Herbs & Spices - parsley, basil, cilantro, cayenne, ginger Fruits - watermelon, avocado, cucumber, young coconuts Wheat grass Sprouts - alfalfa, mung bean, broccoli, etc.

The Bad (Acids):
It’s too bad that the foods we like most make us most acidic and thus sick. Junk & Processed foods Sugar All animal food - meat, eggs, chicken, fish, lobster, oysters Grains - (white) wheat, rice, pasta, flour, bread, etc. Dairy products - milk, cheese, butter, etc.
