3 day juice cleanse – Chef V's Blog

With a New Year comes new resolutions – as well as (in many places), bad weather, and backlogged workloads. Keeping energized will help you knock out your goals in the new year. This piece gives you a comprehensive look at how to keep energy levels up in a healthy matter – no sugar or energy drinks required.

What Makes Energy Healthy?

If you look for a way to stay more energized online, you’ll encounter a host of energy drinks and other artificial supplements vying for your attention. The idea you can get instant energy in a bottle is an appealing one. Yet, as they say, there ain’t no such thing as a free lunch. Most artificial energy products will come with a crash later on. Real lasting energy requires making a variety of conscious choices. Following are just some of the ways you can boost your energy naturally and sustainably.

Manage Your Stress

We wouldn’t go so to say that your fatigue is all in your head. Yet, your mental state can have a significant impact on your energy level. Even if you aren’t in a job with a lot of physical activity, overwork can cause exhausting levels of stress. Don’t be afraid to ask for help at work if things are becoming too much to bear.

Managing stress in your personal life is important as well. Taking the time to talk to a therapist or practice meditation can go a long way to helping you feel less exhausted. Getting on even a quick 3 day juice cleanse can help give you the good vibes to perk you up.

Healthy Sleeping

Sleeping is at the core of many fatigue issues. This seems almost silly to point out. Don’t get enough sleep, you get tired, enough said. But do you know how to develop healthy sleeping habits?

It’s important to always get at least seven hours of sleep a night. For many people, this is easier said than done. Good sleeping is often about building a disciplined sleep routine. You want to try to cut the electronics and sugary foods before bed, and hold yourself to the hour you want to get up. You may also want to look into developing a sleep environment more conducive to shut-eye.

Substance Care

There are a lot of things that you want to avoid before going to bed, such as coffee and alcohol. It’s not just in the evening that you need to take account of what you put into your body. Too much coffee or alcohol can lead to periods of fatigue. Even though coffee can perk you up, too much throughout the day can start leaving you feeling exhausted. Coffee only blocks the substances in your body that make you tired, not eliminate them. Too much coffee will lead to a “tiredness” debt that you will have to pay up later. If you need a pick-me-up, reach for the green drink first.

Exercise

If you work out a ton every day, you’re going to get physically exhausted. Yet, a lack of exercise can lead to fatigue as well. When you exercise, your body produces endorphins, chemicals that make you feel good and peppy. If you a starting to feel “blah” during the day, a little exercise could be what you need to feel better. Even just getting up and walking around a bit can help you feel a little better.

Hydrate

Another really easy way to give yourself energy is to just keep water always on hand. Getting dehydrated is a very easy way to start feeling exhausted. Even mild dehydration is enough to make you feel sleepy. This is because as you become dehydrated, your blood pressure drops, which reduces the blood flow in your brain. Worse, dehydration can also mess with your sleep, compounding sleepiness. It pays to always have a glass of water or green drink on hand.

Eating Right

As they say, you are what you eat. And what you are eating might include things that make you tired. This can work in two ways. Firstly, it could be a situation where you aren’t getting what you need out of what you eat. If you are suffering from a vitamin deficiency, fatigue is sure to follow. Your body is an engine, and it needs a variety of vitamins and minerals to use as fuel. If you aren’t getting enough fuel, you’re going to feel tired, simple as that.

Yet, sometimes it’s not about what you’re missing, but what you’re getting. Your level of tiredness is closely linked to your blood sugar level. If your blood sugar drops, you’ll get fatigued. A spike in blood sugar will cause your body to release insulin, which can lead to the “sugar crash” later on.

Foods that are high in carbs and sugars will tend to cause these kinds of fluctuations in blood sugar that lead to chronic fatigue. High-fat foods are also connected to the release of chemicals that end up making you tired. Plus, our bodies naturally tend to get tired when they put energy into digestion after large meals.

There are, sadly, many people who will turn their nose up at the very idea of a juice cleanse. Very often, this group consists of those who tried a juice cleanse and couldn’t make it through. There’s nothing to be embarrassed about, however, if you can get through a juice cleanse, especially if you are just starting out. Plenty of people report feeling too hungry, exhausted, and low energy to make it through. However, this is rarely a problem for those taking a Chef V cleanse, especially our more modest goal versions like the 3 day juice cleanse.

So what’s our secret? Chef V’s cleanse program is designed to give you all the nutrients you need while cleansing. And one of the most overlooked, but impactful nutrients when it comes to juice cleanse diets has to be fiber. Here, we’ll give you everything you need to know about fiber, and why it’s so important to even a simple 3 juice cleanse.

So What is Fiber Anyways?

Alright – so, fiber is a carbohydrate. Wait, don’t run away! Not all carbs are always bad for you. And fiber is a very unique carbohydrate indeed. Often, the problem with carbs is that they tend to dump a lot of sugar into our blood, causing blood sugar spikes. fiber, on the other hand, simply passes through our digestive tracts, not overstaying its welcome. This isn’t to say, however, that fiber passes through you without any long-term health benefits.

The fiber that we eat tends to come in two forms, soluble and insoluble, each with its own purpose and benefits. Soluble fiber helps keep your digestion working at a regular place. It’s not just digestion that soluble fiber helps you manage, however – it also helps you lower cholesterol levels, and manage blood pressure and blood sugar. Insoluble fiber, on the other hand, simply passes through your body and is vital to preventing bowel syndromes like constipation.

What’s important to note about fiber is that while it’s super important to our health, it’s only found in plant-based foods, like fruits and veggies. In particular, dark leafy greens, squashes, carrots, and some fruits (like apples) are great sources of fiber.

Fiber and Juice Cleanse Diets

You’ll find that some juice cleanses (even short 3 day juice cleanses) will play havoc with your bowels. This is because, very often, those juice cleanses focus on the sexier nutrients like antioxidants, and don’t give poor humble fiber a second thought. Or, if they do consider fiber, they only want to chase the cholesterol-busting soluble fiber, while not giving enough attention to the bowel-helping insoluble fiber. This means that people often suffer intense intestinal distress when undergoing a juice cleanse diet.

Thankfully, if you’re on a Chef V detox diet, whether a 3 day juice cleanse or a 21 day juice cleanse, you don’t need to worry about running to the toilet every half hour. This is because we specifically designed our detox diet to be something that people could actually, you know, finish.

How do we do it? Well, first of all, we don’t just toss you a crate of juice and call it a day. Our Chef V cleanses come with protein shakes and detox soups as well, to make sure that you are getting a well-rounded amount of nutrients and fiber into you – especially through our detox soup’s sweet potato and carrots. Plus, our fresh juice is filled with tons of fiber-packed leafy greens. This means that our juice cleanses are great for losing weight by cutting down on carbs, not because of all the exercise you’re getting doing sprints to the bathroom. If that sounds great to you, make sure to check out the ingredients in our cleanse.
