Frequently Asked Questions.

Pay attention to your body. The length and regularity of your cleanse are individual choices, influenced by your lifestyle and schedule.

 

If you’re new to cleansing, consider starting with the Sportz Cleanse to gauge your body’s response. If it suits you, you can gradually increase the duration or even extend it further.

 

A 5-day cleanse is optimal for resetting your body and enhancing your immune system.

The timing of your juice cleanse is highly individual. Some individuals cleanse monthly, weekly, or every other day.

 

Pay attention to your body’s signals. Your body will indicate when it needs a cleanse, particularly after indulgent occasions like Christmas or New Year’s.

 

For newcomers, beginning with Sportz Cleanse every two weeks is an excellent introduction.

What does it signify to have an 'alkaline' body?

Maintaining good health involves having an alkaline body. Achieving alkalinity requires consuming alkaline foods. For instance, despite lemons being acidic in nature, they have an alkaline-forming effect in your stomach. Conversely, processed foods, coffee, meat, sugar, and similar items have an acid-forming effect when ingested. Ideally, your body’s pH levels should be slightly alkaline, within the range of 7.35-7.45. Deviations from this range may lead to symptoms or diseases.

 

All our vegetable-based juices promote alkalinity in your body. The greater the vegetable content, the more alkaline the juice becomes. If you prefer a cleanse with a high vegetable content, consider the Fibrous Cleanse.

Can I expect weight loss?

ION+ cleanses aim to cleanse and nourish your body, giving your digestive system a break while promoting overall well-being.

 

Our cleanses serve as an effective starting point for a weight loss plan. The more processed and heavier your diet, the greater the potential for weight loss when you switch to raw, nutrient-rich juices.

 

Additionally, our cleanses encourage mindful eating beyond the cleanse period, motivating you to make healthier food choices in the long run.

Is it accurate that my body can naturally detoxify itself? If so, what's the purpose of a juice cleanse?

Indeed, your body possesses the natural ability to self-cleanse. It expels toxins daily through various mechanisms such as bowel movements and perspiration, and it prioritizes rest and healing during sickness.

 

Nonetheless, the toxins present in modern diets and lifestyles can hinder your body’s inherent detoxification processes. Cleansing serves as a means to enhance your body’s innate capabilities.

 

Since your body expends considerable energy digesting solid food daily, engaging in a cleanse offers respite to your digestive system and aids in the elimination of accumulated internal toxins.
Throughout history, cleansing and fasting have been employed to restore balance in individuals’ lives. Cleansing genuinely contributes to one’s health—it transcends mere diet trends or passing fads. Once individuals experience the positive effects of cleansing, they come to appreciate it as an exceedingly effective and essential health practice with enduring value.

I feel apprehensive about my initial cleanse. Is it advisable to proceed?

We understand your apprehension, especially if you’re new to cleansing. Our advice is to take it slow and be attuned to your body’s signals. Even if you don’t manage a full three-day cleanse without solid food, that’s perfectly okay! Starting with just one day or even half a day is a commendable beginning. You’re providing your body with what it truly deserves—fresh, unprocessed juices to nourish every cell.

 

Another useful tip is to conduct some research on cleansing before embarking on one. This way, you’ll be well-informed about what to anticipate and what to steer clear of—beginning with this FAQ is a great step!

 

As you become more accustomed to the routine, cleansing will become less intimidating and a natural part of your lifestyle.

Will I experience dizziness, a sense of lack, or frequent restroom visits?

The way your body responds to a cleanse is highly individual. Some individuals might experience relief from constipation, while others may have difficulty with bowel movements during the cleanse. Once again, it’s crucial to pay attention to your body’s signals.
If you encounter difficulties with bowel movements, consider consuming a mild detox tea like Dandelion Tea to assist in this regard.

 

In case you feel lightheaded and unable to carry out your regular daily activities, you can opt for a light, nutritious snack or a raw salad to regain energy.
Cleansing doesn’t adhere to strict rules—being attuned to your body and responsive to its needs is key.

From where can I obtain my protein?

Our fresh, plant-based juices are rich in protein sourced from fruits and vegetables. Additionally, the nut milk consumed at the end of each day contributes 18 to 24 grams of protein daily.

 

If you require additional protein, consider selecting a cleanse with a higher protein content, such as the Sportz Juice Cleanse. This cleanse is tailored for those who intend to maintain their active routines while cleansing

I'm expecting a child. Is it safe to do a cleanse during pregnancy?

Because our juices are raw and unpasteurized, we do not advise pregnant women to consume them. We suggest consulting your healthcare provider before attempting any new dietary changes during pregnancy.

I'm taking medication. Is it safe for me to do a cleanse?
If you are currently on any medications or antibiotics, it’s essential to consult with your healthcare provider before embarking on any cleanse.
What sets ION+ cold-pressed juices apart from the juices typically made at home?

We employ the hydraulic press for our juice extraction, both of which involve a two-step process. In the first step, fresh produce is slowly ground, mirroring the chewing action of humans, breaking down cell walls into pulp. In the second step, the pulp is collected in a filter bag, and the hydraulic press gently and slowly extracts natural vitamins, trace minerals, enzymes, and flavors. This gradual pressing minimizes air incorporation, leading to minimal oxidation.

 

Home juicers, conversely, often use centrifugal or rotary blade mechanisms, which operate much faster and generate heat. Heat can cause nutrient oxidation and degradation. Even household slow juicers do not achieve the same juice consistency in terms of texture and color as our hydraulic presses.

 

Cold-pressed juicing is the sole method that enables juice bottling without preservatives while maintaining a 3-5 day shelf life. It also preserves vibrant, deep colors, indicating the continued activity and vitality of antioxidants and vitamins.

Why does my juice appear or taste dissimilar to my previous purchase?
Our juices are carefully crafted with precision. We strive to use consistent types of fresh produce daily. Nevertheless, seasonal variations may necessitate the use of different fruits and vegetables. Even when maintaining the same proportions, natural fruits and vegetables can naturally differ in sweetness and color.
My juice has separated. Is it still safe for consumption?
Juice separation is a common occurrence due to the differing densities of fruits and vegetables. If your juice has been consistently refrigerated, remains within its expiration date, and exhibits no unpleasant or unusual taste or odor, it is not spoiled. Simply give it a thorough shake, and you can resume enjoying it.
I have lactose intolerance. Is it acceptable for me to consume your juices and nut milks?
Our juices and nut milks are entirely plant-based and do not contain any lactose.
Can my children have your juices and nut milks?
Although our juices and nut milks are a delicious way for children to increase their fruit and vegetable intake, we suggest consulting a healthcare professional before introducing them to these products.
How long is the shelf life of the juices and nut milks?
You can keep the juices and nut milks refrigerated for up to 4 days. However, if the nut milk contains coconut, it should be consumed within 2 days. It’s crucial to maintain refrigeration for all juices and nut milks until they are consumed since they are perishable and unpasteurized. If you plan to take them on the go, consider using a cooler bag to keep them chilled.
