How to Do the 10-Day Green Smoothie Cleanse ?

The 10-Day Green Smoothie Cleanse is a truly health-transforming experience.

You can choose to do a full cleanse or a modified cleanse.

The full cleanse consists of three smoothies, snacks, and water/tea for the entire ten days. This will provide the most health and weight-loss benefits, with an expected weight loss between ten and fifteen pounds.

The modified cleanse consists of two green smoothies (one for breakfast and one for lunch), with one healthy meal for dinner, snacks, and water/tea. The one healthy meal a day may consist of a salad, sautéed veggies, fish or chicken (grilled or baked).

The modified cleanse is a good plan with tremendous health benefits from the nutrient-rich smoothies. Weight loss may not be as dramatic, but you can expect to still lose between five and ten pounds in the ten days. The modified cleanse was designed for those unwilling or unable to stick with the full cleanse for ten days. It is also great for those who are not looking to lose a lot of weight but simply detox. If you’re new to detoxing and want to gradually ease into the cleanse, this is a great option.

For either cleanse, you will avoid refined sugar, meat, milk, cheese, liquor, beer, coffee, sodas/diet sodas, processed foods, fried foods and refined carbs (white bread, pastas, donuts, etc.) during the entire ten days.

Full Cleanse Summary

1.  DRINK SMOOTHIES: Each day, drink three green smoothies; one for breakfast, lunch and dinner. You can also sip on the smoothie throughout the day as you get hungry. It is important to drink a smoothie or eat a snack every three to four hours to keep your metabolism revved up. Each  smoothie should contain about 12 to 16 ounces of liquid. Simply prepare your entire day’s worth of green smoothies in the morning and pack it up to take with you. Keep it refrigerated as much as possible.
2.  EAT SNACKS: You may snack on apples, celery, carrots, cucumbers, and other crunchy veggies that are appealing to you throughout the day. Other high-protein snacks include unsweetened peanut butter, hard-boiled eggs, and raw or unsalted nuts and seeds (only a handful).
3. DRINK WATER AND DETOX TEA: Drink at least eight glasses of water (64 ounces) per day, and drink detox or herbal teas as desired. Drink the detox tea first thing every morning as it aids the detox process by cleansing the detox organs—kidneys, liver, skin, etc.
4.  KEEP BOWELS MOVING: Perform one of the two methods for colon cleansing to ensure you have one to three bowel movements per day while detoxing.  
5. DO NOT EAT refined sugar, meat, milk, cheese, liquor, beer, coffee, sodas/diet sodas, processed foods, fried foods, refined carbs (white bread, pastas, donuts, etc.)
