“I previously ordered the Keto Cleanse and I loved it. It was no longer available on this site so I opted for the Skinny Cleanse instead, for weight loss as well. However, I did not enjoy the juices in this cleanse as each juice was very sweet. All of the juices had minimum 20 grams of sugar/carbs. Because of the overly sweet taste for me, I was unable to drink all the juices.”
With all the concerns around SUGAR in our diets being brought to light, this is a valid concern amongst juicers. This is because juice when found in the grocery store... i.e. your standard pasteurized apple, cranberry, orange juices, IS straight-up sugar water. It has been processed in order to keep it from spoiling, but in the process, loses all of its nutritional content.
It's a common misunderstanding that because added sugars are bad, the same must apply to fruits, which also contain fructose. However, unless you are fructose intolerant, this is completely wrong. For the vast majority of us, fructose can only be harmful in large amounts and it is almost impossible to overeat fructose by eating fruit. Some vegetables also contain natural sugar, including beets and carrots, which you’ll find in our juices.
When focusing on the idea of taking in more carbohydrates or sugars (even natural ones found in fruits), it’s a matter of balancing your macronutrients. For instance, since you won’t be taking in the regular amount of fats and protein you would while not on a cleanse, it allows your body to process more carbs— especially without the fiber.
Weight loss is common on a juice cleanse as a result of two factors:
-The concentrated influx of nutrition. Often our bodies cling to fat when our diets lack adequate plant-based nutrition. Juice floods your body with the nutrition it craves and the enzymes it needs. Your body quickly recognizes that the famine is over and starts burning stored fat.
-Giving your digestive system a break allows your body to more effectively detoxify itself, resulting in weight loss.
You can always add some filtered water to the bottle if the taste is too sweet.
I hope this makes you feel better about the sugar content and how it is different while cleansing :)
