5-Day Cleanse Menu

[Guest guest]

From Frederic Patenaude:

 

On Monday, we start our 5-day raw-food cleanse. Here's more

information on the diet:

 

- The fruits that are allowed are raw, fresh fruits and vegetables —

nothing else.

- For 5 days, we will not eat any fat, so no avocados, nuts, seeds,

oils, etc.

- We will not use any condiments as well, just raw fruits and

vegetables, eaten straight or blended in smoothies, soups, etc.

- No dried fruits and dates as well.

 

Those who read my book The Raw Secrets will have a clearer idea of how

to do this diet. Just remember to avoid fats and condiments as well

during the cleanse.

 

A good idea would be to have the following during the day:

 

BREAKFAST: Fruit, or freshly-squeezed orange juice, or a fruit smoothie.

LUNCH: A big fruit smoothie (bananas for example), or a big green

smoothie, or simply fresh fruit (as much as desired)

DINNER: Fruit as desired, followed by a raw soup, or a tomato-lettuce

salad. Or simply a big smoothie.

 

It's important to eat enough fruit so that you're not hungry all the

time.

 

As for physical activity, the idea is to do 30 minutes per day, at

least. What counts? Anything: jogging, jumping on a trampoline,

swimming, yoga, etc. But try to do something that will challenge you a

bit. If you do yoga, try to do a longer routine. If you run, try to

push yourself a little more. At least do something, even if it's just

walking, that will make you sweat a little and, if possible, get some

fresh air.

 

You should shop today and tomorrow so that you have plenty of fruits

and vegetables. Good choices at this time of the year are: bananas,

mangoes, oranges, lettuce, sprouts, etc. There's not that much variety

at this time of the year, but plenty for our purposes.

Plan right now to change any commitment you may have for next week

that will not be in your best interest for this cleanse. If you were

supposed to go to a wine and cheese tasting, it might be a good idea

to cancel it.

 

Also, this weekend shouldn't be an occasion to binge before the

cleanse. You'll have a much easier time if you don't. I personally

plan to have a good time next week.

 

Get everything you need, and I'll see you on Monday!

PS: If you haven't read my book " The Raw Secrets " , now would be a good

time to do it, in preparation for the cleanse.

This sounds great, count me in! I've wanted to go on a fast for a while which

I have done in the past successfully, but it just seems to hard this time. So I

think this cleanse is perfect for me cause I can still have delicious food and

hopefully it'll get me into great eating habits.

My fridge is empty so I'll be starting tomorrow.

Blessings
