Pre and Post cleanse information
Before embarking on an Andajuicya Cleanse program, we recommend taking some preparatory steps. Although not mandatory, these preparations will facilitate a smooth transition into the Cleanse, optimising the absorption of nutrients and maximising its benefits. One thing we always say is "listen to your body"
🎬 Pre-Cleanse Guidelines 🎬
🍪 Consider completing the Cleanse program in a 'clean' environment by minimising temptations. Clear out your cupboard and fridge of all 'unhealthy' snacks and drinks.
✔️ In the days leading up to the Cleanse, prioritise hydration by drinking plenty of water daily. Ideally, focus on meals consisting predominantly of fresh ingredients like vegetables, fruits, legumes, salads, and soups.
❌ Gradually reduce or eliminate certain dietary elements:
🥖 Processed foods (white flour, sugar)
🍭 Preservatives, artificial colourings/sweeteners, and food dyes
🍪 Muesli bars/biscuits
🍫 Sweets (chocolate, lollies)
🍞 White bread/white rice
🍔 Fast foods
🥤Soft drinks/fruit juices
🍺 Alcohol/caffeine
⚡️Sports bars/gels/energy drinks
❄️ Frozen goods (chicken nuggets, chicken parma, meat pie, sausage rolls, dim sims)
🫙 Jams (sweet spreads)
💊 Non-prescription drugs
🏁 Post-Cleanse Recommendations 🏁
Upon completing the Cleanse, reintroduce solid food into your digestive system gradually. Follow these recommendations for the first 1-2 days post-Cleanse:
🍥 Reduce portion sizes at meal times to avoid overconsumption.
🐌 Eat at a slower pace, taking time to appreciate your food.
🔁 Maintain regular meal intervals to support metabolism.
💦 Stay hydrated by drinking water regularly.
