Day 1: Purifyne Cleanse by London Vegan Ballerina
Day 1: A 16-day PurifyneCleanse by one of our client, London’s ballerina – a very interesting and
honest account of cleansing process and benefits of it.
This
morning I weighed 62.3kg; body fat percentage 28.7%. It'll be interesting to
see how these numbers change everyday.
I woke up feeling as usual: tired, moody, and needing at least 3 hours more sleep... My juice package was due to arrive at around 9am, so I had some hot lemon water as suggested and did a session of dry skin-brushing. Feeling a bit more alive now, I proceeded to get some work done, and before long, the delivery arrived.
Inside were: 8 bottles of fresh juice (2 days' supply), 1 small bottle
each of coconut water and aloe vera juice, a Daily Routine Summary, some
sachets of cinnamon powder, ginger powder, psyllium husk, and green superfoods
powder to be mixed with juice, chamomile tea-bags for enema, liver support
capsules, bentonite clay capsules, essential fatty acids capsules (all 7 days'
supply), one Enema kit, and 1 sisal body buffer. Whew! It's quite a list!!
Here's how I got on today:
9.30 am
9.30 am
My first juice! Apple, beetroot, carrot and ginger, with 1 tsp each of
Green Superfoods powder and psyllium husk mixed in. I was pretty hungry, so I
finished this quite quickly. The juice tasted refreshing, and not too sweet,
and it filled me up too. Soon after, I had some natural bowel movement and
decided to skip the morning enema. New discovery: I don't need to eat a huge
breakfast, (read: drink a litre of smoothie) to feel full.
12.30am
My second juice. Apple, ginger, parsley, and spinach, this time with no
powders added. This was my favourite combination. I also had a shot glass of
the aloe vera juice. I should mention that I told Purifyne I don't like pears,
cucumbers or mint in my juices, so these aren't likely to appear in the
ingredients list - thank goodness! It's nice to be able to omit things you
really don't like from the juices, instead of having to pinch your nose and
down it in one. B-)
4.30 pm
It is so strange not to have to think about what to eat at all. As for
cravings, I have none at the moment, and although I felt colder than usual when
I went out in the dismal weather, it might just have been a colder-than-usual
day. My third juice contained melon, red pepper, celery, and ginger, with 1 tsp
of psyllium husk. Not one of my favourite combinations, but it was fine. I
don't spend any time cooking, preparing, eating and washing up, so I'm getting
so much more things done!
7.00 pm
At 6.30 pm, I had a mug of herbal tea to revive myself from the cold
weather outside. Now for my last juice of the day: beetroot, carrot, celery,
and ginger. I added some cinnamon powder to this juice, which totally
transformed the flavour and I really enjoyed it! I've never been much of a
cinnamon-fan, but it makes a really great addition to a juice.
8.30 pm
I took my first enema. I'm going to go to bed early today - feeling
sleepy already.
Onward to Day 2!

Nutritional Super-Combos
We
read a lot about superfoods health benefits and their effect on our body. The recent
study in Journal of Nutrition has found that certain foods become healthier and
more beneficial for body nutrients’ absorption when eaten together.
Vitamin C and Iron: Iron deficiency is
one of the main cause of irritability and lack of energy. Vitamin C helps the
body to absorb Iron more efficiently.
Vitamin
C-rich: Lemon, Oranges, Kale, Spinach, Broccoli
Iron-rich:
Red meat, Eggs (Yolks especially), Oily fish, beans and dark green, leafy
vegetables
Super-Combo:
·
Rocket salad and
squeezed lemon
Vitamin D and Calcium:
The vast
majority of the population in the UK are Vitamin D deficient which is required
by the body to absorb Calcium.
·
Vitamin
D-rich: Oily fish (Sardines and Salmon), Eggs and fortified Cereals
·
Calcium-rich:
Dairy, Dark Green and Leafy vegetables
Super-Combo:
·
Poached eggs and
spinach: Vitamin
D in the eggs helps your body absorb the calcium in the Greens.
Vitamin A and Zinc: Having Vitamin A-rich foods together with foods
high in Zinc increases the absorption of the skin-friendly Vitamin A.
·
Vitamin
A-rich Oily fish, Yoghurt and Milk
·
Zinc-rich
Beef, Pumpkin seeds and Oats
Lycopene and Healthy
Fat:
Foods high in Lycopene eaten with healthy fat increase your body’s uptake of
Lycopene, an antioxidant that protect against some cancers.
·
Lycopene-rich
Carrots, Tomatoes
·
Healthy
fat Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Other healthy Super-Combos
Red wine and salmon: A glass of red wine
eaten with Salmon can boost our uptake of Omega-3s.
Salads and
avocado: The
salads components – lettuce, carrots, spinach – are superfoods in themselves
containing a powerful antioxidants called Lutein*. Combining the ingredients
with avocado increases your body’s absorption of Lutein by 5 times due to the
healthy fats it contains.
*It protects eye and
heart health and improves your complexion.
Carrot and coriander
soup and buttered crusty bread: The fat in the butter will help your body
absorb the antioxidant Lycopene from the carrots.
