Is juice fasting a healthy way to detox?

Yes

According to Elson Haas; founder and medical director of the preventive Medical Centre of Marin in San Rafael California, USA, he claims that drinking only juices for a few days is a vacation from processed foods which may contribute to problems like allergies and constipation. Juice fasting helps to eliminate toxins from the body. It isn't for everyone though. People who are anemic, underweight, pregnant or nursing, should stay clear of juice fasting.

No

Elisabetta Politti, a nutrition manager from the Duke University Diet and Fitness Centre in Durham North Carolina USA believes that during a juice fast a person's metabolism slows down so that you burn fewer calories than if you ate a well-balanced diet. On top of this, a lack of fibre may result in constipation. After 48 hours you may lose muscle mass. She suggests for a clean body, eat properly and exercise.
