Juicing for Weight Loss: Juicing Detox that will make you lose 2 lbs every day

Juicing Detox Plan: Expect to lose 31 lbs in 3 weeks!

Fresh juice can be a miracle slimmer.

Note Stanford University researchers, thanks to its uniquely high concentration of alkalinizing, detoxifying plant compounds.

This simple juice detox three-week diet will provide you with a minimum of 22 daily servings of fruit and veggies in the form of nutrient-dense juices.

You'll absorb thousands of acid-neutralizing, detoxifying nutrients every day, which is the key to shedding fat effortlessly- and permanently, says naturopathic physician Roni DeLuz, R.N., N.D. Expect to lose up to 31 pounds in three weeks and heal stubborn health challenges- fast!

Diet in a nutshell. Enjoy unlimited amounts of fresh juice, aiming for at least one 8 oz. glass every two hours. For best results, switch up the recipes: USDA research suggests that consuming at least six different plant foods daily can triple your intake of acid-neutralizing phytonutrients.

Weak 4 and beyond...

In addition to flushing fat, this juice detox diet restores your liver's ability to produce detoxifying enzymes, plus rejuvenates mitochondria (cellular furnaces) so they can burn body fat for energy. Weight will continue to melt off as long as you dodge metabolism-stalling toxins and keep your body's pH in the optimal range, says DeLuz.

To do:

1. Think 1-2-3. Have 1 glass of juice, 2 pieces of fruit, 3 cups of veggies daily.
2. Go green. If one of your daily veggies isn't a green salad, mix 1 Tbs. of green super-food powder into juice.
3. Eat quality protein and fat. Think fish, lean meat, skinless poultry, eggs and protein powder. Nix chemical-laden processed meats and fried foods.

Juicing made easy.

At first glance, juicing may seem work-intensive, admits DeLuz. But with the right tools and a little know-how, juicing can be a pleasant experience that's actually faster and easier than preparing regular meals.

Here, the top strategies DeLuz recommends for a no-sweat, super-speedy weight loss.

Get the right juicer.Machines with a 1/3 to 1/2 horsepower rating are better able to quickly and efficiently process tough vegetables, like beets. A large feeding tube (at least 3 inches wide) eliminates the need to cut up produce and makes cleanup easier. And a stable base with evenly distributed weight can prevent leak-inducing vibrations. Try the Breville Juice Fountain Compact BJE200XL , which was also highly rated by Consumer Reports.

Buy these items organic: Choosing organic apples, cherries, peaches, imported grapes, berries, bell peppers, celery and spinach cuts your toxin exposure by as much as 80 percent, according to researchers at the University of Stirling in the United Kingdom. For other produce, rinse (or gently scrub) with a mixture of 4 Tbs. apple cider vinegar and 1 gallon water. Vinegar's malic acid and tartaric acid dissolve toxin residue.

Don't bother with the peeler: Peels contain up to 27 times more antioxidant activity than the pulp of produce, according to a study in the journal Nutrition Research. So toss unpeeled fruit and veggies into your juicer. The exception: citrus (the white pith can make juice taste bitter).

While a juice cleansing diet is the quickest, most effective way to rid the body of fat-trapping acidic compounds, simply increasing your intake of alkaline foods can dramatically improve energy and vitality, plus heal digestive upsets, boost immunity and jump-start weight loss.

Avocados:These gems deliver quality plant protein and omega-9 fatty acids. Omega-9s alkalinize the body and stave off hunger and cravings, says Michelle Schoffro Cook, doctor of natural medicine and author of The Ultimate pH Solution: Balance Your Body Chemistry to Prevent Disease and Lose Weight (Collins, 2008). In a study at the University of California at Riverside, women lose up to 10 pounds in two months just by adding an avocado to their daily diet.

Lemons: This tart fruit may taste acidic, but when digested, its unique phytonutrients (including hesperidin, d-limonene and d-glucarate) become powerfully alkalinizing. Plus, studies suggest that lemon's antioxidants enhance the liver's ability to break down toxins by up to 35 percent. For maximum cleansing benefits, sip three glasses of fresh lemonade daily. (Combine the juice of 4 lemons with 8 cups of filtered water and 1 tsp. of stevia).

Leafy greens: Plants such as spinach, Swiss chard and wheat grass are nature's most potent detoxifiers, thanks to their rich stores of acid-neutralizing calcium, magnesium and potassium. They're also packed with chlorophyll, a plant pigment that enhances the liver's ability to burn fat for fuel, adds Roni DeLuz, R.N., N.D., author of 21 Pounds in 21 Days: The Martha's Vineyard Diet Detox (Collins, 2007). According to UCLA researchers, eating just 2 cups of leafy greens daily kick-starts weight loss, plus banishes fatigue, brain fog and other symptoms of acidity within two weeks.
