Today is day 1 of another carrot juice fast. I didn't really get that far on the last one, but I'm determined to carry this one all the way to a successful conclusion. There is nothing as transformative as a long vegetable juice fast. It's my number one health insurance program.

I'll allow myself some green tea, and I'll drink lots of distilled water, as well. Spring is here, and this is the optimal time to cleanse and detoxify. I love doing juice, because my energy remains high throughout the fast. In fact, toward the end of most of my juice fasts I've found I had tremendous energy and was able to run and exercise better than ever.
