Vitamix Juice Recipes Grapefruit

Posted on06 January 2012.As promised here’s the long awaited 3 Day Juice Cleanse Recipe list!  We can do this!  Please remember if you have any medical issues you cannot do this juice cleanse.  Pregnant or nursing moms, and no children can do the cleanse.  Everyone should check with their doctors before changing anything health wise, and before starting a cleanse. In my post yesterday that talked about why we are doing a juice cleanse, and the benefits of the cleanse I mentioned that I based our plan off of the popular Cooler Cleanse and BluePrintCleanse.  I tweaked recipes from all over and used the ingredient list from both of those “Hollywood/New York” cleanses to make our cleanse.  I do not claim to have their recipes, as I have never tasted either of their juices.  But, we do have the same ingredients in our juices. One thing I did differently was to make two different Green Juices, to give us a little more variety on the green end.  We will also be drinking our juices in the order that Cooler Cleanse and BluePrintCleanse tells you to drink theirs.
You will drink the following juices in the order listed 1-6, about 2 hours apart. Read this linked post for all of the information about our 3 day juice cleanse BEFORE YOU BEGIN! I’m attaching a PDF of the 3 Day Juice Cleanse Recipes for you to print out and have on hand.  Drink LOTS of water!!! Some of the recipes will give you a little extra juice (depending on how good your juicer is and how big your fruit/veggies are.  If that’s the case, save the excess just in case you are feeling like you need some extra nourishment during the day.  There are plenty of websites and books with more info on juicing.  I highly recommend reading as much as you can.  It’s good to educate yourself.  I’m just providing the basics. Side effects that you should look out for, and stop the fast immediately should they occur.   If you are lightheaded, dizzy, and feeling faint may mean you are hypoglycemic or even hyperglycemic. You may be diabetic.  These symptoms could also mean you are dehydrated.
Diarrhea is possible with juice fasting. If diarrhea occurs, know that you are losing fluid and nutrients.  Of course you will feel hunger sensations, that is to be expected, but other abnormal sensations during a juice fast should be taken seriously.  If anything out of the ordinary occurs please stop your cleanse.  Fasting and cleansing is NOT for everyone. Free Tip: I put my greens and ginger in my juicer wrapped around something that’s juicy to help out the juicer. Read the directions from your juicer before beginning. With that said here we go!

Get our “getting started” mini-course: It’s officially summer, so why not cool down with a glass of grapefruit lemonade? It’s a perfect way to jazz up the classic summertime beverage. As a bonus, you get to eat a fruit that you may not get eat that often and use it in a way other than sprinkled with sugar, or in a salad. Pink Grapefruits are high in vitamin C, lycopene, and potassium. Add that to the Vitamin C from the lemons and you get a pretty nutritious thirst quencher. The recipe is simple and quite versatile. It calls for 1⁄4 cup honey, but you can adjust that amount to your liking. You can also adjust the juice ratios if you want to make it stronger in grapefruit or lemon flavor. Juicing the citrus is the most involved part of this recipe but it goes rather quickly if you have a citrus juicer.
The aroma of the fruits in the house will leave you feeling refreshed and uplifted. If you’re unsure about the added honey or the elbow grease used to get the juice, you can go with a much simpler route by making pink grapefruit and lemon infused water. All you have to do is thinly slice one grapefruit and a few lemons, place them in the bottom of the pitcher and add water. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to let the flavors infuse then strain to remove the fruit. Serve the water chilled in a pitcher with fresh grapefruit or lemon slices.
