Important information and precautions

• the programme is not a nutritionally complete replacement for regular balanced meals;
• there is no evidence that juices cleanse the liver, kidneys or body of accumulated toxins;
• short-term weight reduction may largely reflect lower energy intake, bowel contents and body water;
• weight may return after normal eating resumes;
• not intended for children, adolescents, pregnant or breastfeeding women, underweight people or individuals with an eating disorder;
• people with diabetes should not follow the programme without medical advice because juice sugar intake varies and medication may require adjustment;
• professional advice is required for kidney, liver or heart disease, low blood pressure, fainting or electrolyte disorders;
• consult a doctor when using insulin, diabetes medicines, blood-pressure medicines, diuretics or other regular treatment;
• the vegetable juice contains celery, while the wheatgrass drink contains green tea and wheatgrass;
• people with coeliac disease should use wheatgrass products only when the label confirms that they are gluten-free and protected from grain contamination;
• stop the programme if marked weakness, fainting, vomiting, palpitations, confusion or persistent abnormal blood glucose occurs.

Pharmacist’s advice

Consider this set a short-term restrictive juice programme rather than a medical detoxification treatment or a long-term weight-management solution.

The programme is low in protein and fat and may cause hunger, weakness, headache, feeling cold and reduced concentration. Avoid strenuous training and activities requiring full alertness if dizziness or weakness develops.

Sustainable weight management requires gradual energy reduction, adequate protein and fibre, regular physical activity and habits that can be maintained for months rather than five days.

Do not start the programme without medical or dietetic advice if you have a chronic disease, use regular medication or have a history of restrictive dieting or an eating disorder.
